SMR w00t

super nice day for a super nice smr.  60 miles + dan + shaun = good times.  the ride out was wicked nice, the ride home was into the wind and brutal. i was dead by the time i got home.  need to work on pace, eat more, drink more, and take more breaks to give my hands, neck and maximus a rest.

i got love for ups!

package from universal cycles came yesterday. i stumbled on their website a couple weeks ago and they had everything i was looking for pretty much including velo plugs.  ordered some more tubes, water bottle, velo plugs, wheels mfg chainwhip, some jp weigles frame saver, and some track style grips for my nitto bullhorns.  the selection at universal is insane, they have everything, the prices are decent, shipping is cheap but dead slow (comes ground from PDX). ill psot more on this stuff as it gets put to use.

home

fastest ride home yet. had some bike goodies from universal cycles waiting for me! ill post on that later on.

new old bars

got these oury grips for free via a shipping mistake from speedgoat.  i like them a lot. good prices and fast shipping from PA. and i had these old cruiser bars via the dump. they were all oxidized and rusting and crusty and gross so i sanded them down to smooth em out a bit then polished em up a bit. turned out rustic romantic i think :)

croun bike update

cranks from the first bike being converted by croun.  caitlin will be the proud owner of it one day... soon.  its an early 90s raleigh capri.  polished some parts and have prepped the frame. just waiting for some nicer weather to paint. more pics to come.

wheelz

couple shots of my new wheels from tony at iro.  A+ company.  new iro premier hubs laced 3x to red deep v's.  he even laced four silver spokes into the front for me.  the rims were left overs that had some paint flaws, upon arrival there are like three small spots where the paint isnt immaculate, no big d for half the price.  the hubs seem nice, i like the previous ones and these are a bit more solid and have better bearings so im psyched on that. the branding on the outside is gonna have to go tho :( a little nail polish should take care of that.  cant wait to put them on in a few weeks.

test drive

quick ride with cuzzo and his new lemond buenos aires.  bike is sick: reynolds tubing, 105 components, cool rolf wheels.  almost makes me want some gears and derailleurs and shifters and cables and brakes and all that.
