alkaline Posted February 6, 2002 Share Posted February 6, 2002 So the other night I was sitting around watching Breaking Away (on DVD ... I also just got American Flyers on DVD and Quicksilver on VHS) when suddenly there was a loud hissing noise. At first we couldn't figure out what it was. Then my roomate pointed out that the front tire of my bike was deflating (my bike is in the living room). The valve had ripped away from the body of the tube, and I can't figure out how. It was really weird, because I haven't riden in a few days. I think she's trying to tell me something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ohno*rock Posted February 8, 2002 Share Posted February 8, 2002 those lemonds are lookin sweet. must be nice to be on a team that rolls from race to race with 4-5 of those babies riddin on the roof rack. is that balto cyclo-cross race this weekend on oln, or was that last weekend? my bicycle collection is nearing its completion. i started selling art to old hipster wierdos, to help pay for school, but all the money has gone into the bikes. i've widdled my collection down from 10 to 5. i'm a dura - ace upgrade kit away from finishing my road bikes up, and a new front shok away from a good mtn set up. of course 5 bikes wont be enough. i still have my eye on an exclusive and classy carlton touring bike for those long hauls. after that i'll probably want a tandem, then a unicycle, oh then after that i'll definatly have to pick up one of those old time bikes with the huge wooden wheel in front and the little one in back. what were those called? people used to fall off of them all the time and crack their heads.

Joker Posted February 12, 2002 Share Posted February 12, 2002 Originally posted by cinnamon toast crunch804 ... i did a solid 3 and a half hours 65 mile ride today felt really good... I second that. Saturday was a little more than 50 miles and Sunday was suppose to be 40 miles but a few ego-maniacs on my ride couldn't stop at that so we ended up finishing at 70. This week will be a tapering down week for me. Nothing more than 30. Then Sunday is the race... ohhhh, the horror. Did you watch that Cyclo-cross on OLN? I missed it due to riding.

cinnamon toast crunch804 Posted February 12, 2002 Share Posted February 12, 2002 yeah i did 65 on sat. and then 40 on sunday. Yeah i saw the the coverage on OLN it was pretty good i was happy they showed both mens and womens. joker just remeber you still have 5 month to the end of the season. good luck to you My goal for my first race this season is to finish in the lead group/pack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TEARZ Posted February 12, 2002 Share Posted February 12, 2002 the oln coverage was cool. that guy todd jones (?) maybe or james or something; anyway, the guy that bunnyhops the barriers was pretty cool. it was nice too see, but it was only 1/2 hour long. i also watched the road to paris video this weekend. it was really good actually. the funniest part by far, was in the bonus footage, when lance's mechanic stops into the store and buys like 4 candy bars and johann says to lance, "he's on the ulrich diet." haha. i have a new bike that i think i want now. http://www.hewittcycles.co.uk/complete_cycles/e_merckx/emfugabike/emfugabike.jpg'> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alkaline Posted February 13, 2002 Share Posted February 13, 2002 I shaved my legs a couple of times. The second time was possibly the most excrtiating pain I have ever been in. I didn't sleep for two days, and I couldn't wear pants. I just sat around the house in my underwear. I've been meaning to try that Epil-stop spray stuff. I heard it works good, and since I liked no having hair on my legs ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joker Posted February 13, 2002 Share Posted February 13, 2002 Guys... I'm telling you... I'm quite hairy when it comes to the legs. And I have no problems at all when it comes to shaving. Here's my method... Hook yourself up with a nice hot bath. Don't have that kind of time?... steamy shower. Buy a few bars of Cetaphil soap. It will work wonders for your skin and keep it silky smooth. Ask any woman. If you're in the bath, chill out for a few minutes and enjoy the heat on your muscles. Read the latest issue of Cycle Sport and have some tea. After about ten minutes or so lather that leg up with some soap. Grab the Gilette Mach III and work that hair away. With your legs soaking in the hot water for ten minutes, it's loosened up your pores and softened the hair. Making shaving it away that much easier. In the shower, basically do the same thing. Steamy and give the hairs time to soften. When you hop out of the shower/ bath lube those legs up with some aloe or some kind of healing lotion. Then you're set to wow the ladies... Well, that's what works for me. Of course, that first time my wife walked in on me shaving my legs in the tub... with bubbles... she had questions. Cinnamon, yeah I keep telling myself to take it easy. Today was only 15 miles. Mostly because it's really windy out but also because I don't want to overtrain for the first race. I'll be sure to post a play by play story Sunday night... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jewish Task Force Posted February 13, 2002 Share Posted February 13, 2002 Dude, you shaved your ass and taint! How bad did that itch? I trimmed the pubic jungle once, not even shaved, just trimmed, and that shit itched like chicken pox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EL MASKO Posted February 13, 2002 Share Posted February 13, 2002 The taint itched like crazy. Ass not that I noticed. I give the old trim...never an itch. You all sound like girls...Talking about shaving legs and being "silky-smooth". What ever works. I don't shave shit when I swim. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
