I'm not sure I can agree with the humble shop comment considering he parks a bright orange Lotus in the middle of it.

Yeah, it was very much like middle of December today. Thankfully it supposed to be in the mid 50s on Thursday so I've got a nice ride planned for after work.

No worries, Ric, they bounce back remarkably quick and as long as they sleep the super cuddles that you get sometimes make for fun memories all their own. I'm sure she'll be back to unthinkable levels of cuteness before you know it.

It's going to be a lot of fun to watch that come together, Vicki. Congrats again.

Hang in there gents.

The crank that I have is setup for GXP (a SRAM specific BB) but should (I think) work with an english threaded frame. Granted, it'd require a new BB that I don't have which is probably enough to mean that you shouldn't go down that road. If you figure out what you're actually running for a BB I can probably hunt down a used compact crank for you. Regardless if you want to talk cassettes just shoot me a PM. They're pretty easy to come by on the bike nerd forums.

Dan, If I read that right you aren't sure if you running a compact front yet. I've got a SRAM Apex compact that might work for you too depending on your BB.

Happy Birthday!!

Dan, if that cassette ends up causing too many adjustment issues I have a 11-28 that I could swap with you. It's what I've been riding so far this year and while not as nice as the 32 it's still pretty good on the hills. I can't remember what you're coming from but I think it was a close ratio, right?

Please take it easy Boo, I just want you to have fun this year without any major setbacks.

This! It was gorgeous here today but Easter activities occupied most of my free time.

Brent, I wear XXL for most euro-built cycling gear. At 6'-1" I guess I should weigh 150lbs or something in order to fit the mold that is used for cycling clothing.

That's the difference between wife+kids/no-wife+no-kids.

Damn Raffy, that's impressive. I've clocked 120 miles for March and feeling pretty good given the fact that we've had snow multiple times and the average daytime temps are still in the 40s. My goal for April is 200...

Outstanding Vicki! Me: just got back from the usual 17+ mile loop around town. I pushed harder than was strictly necessary because I was hoping to go out for a much longer ride but life got in the way. Cranked pretty good for early in the year, about where I was 3 months into last year so it'll be fun to see if I can keep up the miles and get a little stronger this year.

This!

Happy Birthday Doug!

I wasn't offered anything. I did finally get my shipping refund though.

Ideally I think 4. But I never seem to have enough time to really get into it. I've half-assed it up to this point but my frustration is getting to the point where I'd like a long term solution even if it means a substantial investment.

Best wishes, Larry.

got a refund from newegg today, but I have to call them to get them to refund my original shipping. That seems like a shady move to me. So I guess I'll be on the lookout for a good NAS device.

*party favor noise*

Excellent news, Shelly! Glad to hear that you're back to enjoying the beautiful, beautiful music.

Well done, Stretch! I'm hovering around 200 (haven't weighed myself in weeks though) but should be attacking that with regularity in the coming months with half-decent cycling weather finally upon us.

I get two distinct images in my mind when picturing a watch that large. One is Flavor Flav and his clock, the other is the phone that was marketed back in the 80s for old people that had like 1" sqaure buttons so they were easy to read and press. Yeeeaahhh boyeeeee!
