TNR 09/24/09

Rode around a bit. Had some pics of us taken for V1. Went through Carson. Got a flat. Seven minutes later we rode towards Hallie and had some fire. Rode back. I ate shit on the way home.

On Friday a ride was bummed.

Just in from Interbike... new fat tire

Surly has a new front tire for Pugsleys (finally). It should allow for a bit more steering control with it's more rudder like tread. Perhaps I'll have to get one for my Pugsley.

Tandem Obstacle Course Race

Went to the Elk Lake Tavern for some tandem obstacle course racing.

Two pedal strokes in and the pressed on crank spider came off a bit. One tandem down. We did rig it up to work though.

No more shifting. Duct tape SS.

Check it. What.

GO GO GO GO!







Seat would tighten. Duct tape = fixed.








Ketchup


About to eat shit to avoid a telephone poll.


I got hit in the face with a wiener.



Pretty awesome time. Everyone should make an effort to attend the event next year. Everything was coming loose on the bikes. We wrecked two front wheels as well.

Hill climbing, some almost cop harassment (surprise!), bushwacking, College Mandy backing out. Pretty standard TNR. We also stopped at Petco...

TNR 09/10/09

Smaller crew tonight. Rolled around the town up the south side. Was passed by a Corvette too close. I mean, I get it. I have a Corvette too but when I drove it I didn't pass bicycles too close. Then we went back around to Altoona. We were then informed by a lift kitted truck that we should acquire automobiles. We respectfully declined. LA Beach for beers and then back. Oh, and we raced a train.

Bicycle Part Yard Sale

Just so all y'all know...

"Having a yard sale at my house, 726 Chauncey st., EC, tommorrow starting around 8am. Lots of used bike stuff, tires, some wheels, stems, random, etc. Couple discbrake sets, crankset.
Craig Manthe"

P.S. I call dibs on all the cool shit.
