Wow, I got a lot of work done today. Now I have to do alll my reading.

So, I went around this corner sharply, had pedal strike, tried to correct, handlebars jerked to the right, feet came out of the cages, flew off my bike, bounced off the ground, hit my head (sans helmet), and landed in front of an SUV with this woman staring in shock.

I figured my 165mm cranks and high bottom bracket would be able to handle that.
I guess not.

[quote=Spaceman Spiff;17501388]Damn I love having a full time job and saving all this money I'm saving. I spend as much as I want and still end up saving plenty. Can't wait to buy a Tele... maybe this weekend.[/quote]

It is a bonus.

Then you buy a new car so that you can impress the ladies and easily carry all of your rig + a couple basses and some PA equipment.

Then you have to budget again. *sigh*

Shipped my Aria out today. It's set to arrive on the 15th, at which time PayPal will let me have my $528.89 so I can put my damn bass in the shop and pay my billz.

Were you pedaling around the corner? Or were you just leaning so much that you managed to hit the pedal on the ground?

I really don't know if I want a car. Maybe at some point, but I don't have nearly enough money for that.

I was pedaling, as I ride fixed, so I kind of have to.

PRO AS ****

Who rides fixed anymore? That went out with the Big Wheel.

Big Wheel is direct drive, dudebro.

Ok, fact of the matter is that, if the wheels turn, the pedals are moving.

Good enough for the track, good enough for the street!

Some would say too good and an unnecessary road-riding addition.

You cannot bust mad whip skidzz in front of cars on a normal road bicycle.

MAD WHIP SKIDZZZ

DO YOU HEAR ME?

Are you a BMX bandit? You dirty hoodlum.

Whip skidding...

on a BMX bicycle?

ARE YOU MAD?

I'll be honest I really don't know what whip skidding is.

Those things look out of true.

Maybe, but it's the best I can afford.

If they had an SD capabilities, I'd totally buy some just to have music with me while working out.

They make portable music players, you know.

Wakeupwakeupwakeup.


So.... uh, how's it hanging? I haven't been keeping up with **** lately.

And they'd also probably be ****ing terrible for your feet.
