Azencross and others
FF to about 4:40 or so and it makes me laugh... there's a bit more of it around 5 but oh it is so funny to watch the synchronized whoop riding!
*chuckle*
Ah
Cross can't start soon enough.
Can it.
The riding around today in the rain has the 'new' bike all dirty. But am I going to wash it tonight after riding home in the rain? Hell no. I might wipe down the crank. That crank is sooooooo sexy. Almost as sexy as a new Mavic (ya know - that old one that I got what ever number it is - the road one before they put it on a diet). Cold forged, heavy and as it should be. Stiff and strong. Big and Long to boot.
The Red Wings kicked Dallas's ass last night it seems (from reading the report while eating lunch).
I need to update the links to the left. Lots of good reading from local folks, Zen, Hill Junkie, theamywallace, brentani, wendy simms (okay so she's not local but her face is on the Cyclocross poster in my office and she's a team mate of those two tall (circus) freaks who serve as a constant reminder that tall folks like me CAN be (almost) as fast as the little guys all the time. Anyway that's just a few of the links that need to be added... speaking of reading other stuff - BKW - nice bit on working on bikes and making pies and all that sort of stuff. I ain't hyperlinking BKW 'cause, well... 'cause yall know where to go...
I'm still trying to figure out how flat bars will give me a hernia... unless it has to do with the near impossibility to shoulder/carry a bike that big without drop bars... Ouch... damn bottom of the top tube is kinda pointy... I can't reach the bars with the down tube wrap, could manage with the head tube arm wrap carry. Gonna have to toughen up the shoulder all over again.
Speaking of cross, links and all that...

I was just hoping to scare you into putting some drop bars on, that's all. I imagined you'd say "gosh, I don't want a hernia" and just go with it.
The flat bars look fun, though.
Do it. Do it.
sweet whoops, wish we had em here... wow.
agreed, wish I knew how to html a cross countdown clock on my blog.... haha
Thanks for the ink.
Know anyone that wants a hand-built bontrager CX?
