Just bought some chain cleaner. I didn't realize how dirty my chain was until I sprayed that stuff on. Oh my God. I used a whole can, and still didn't get all of the grime off! Cleaned it up as best I could, put some Boeshield T-9 on, and now this thing is sooo quiet! No more little crunching sounds or anything.
<--- Happy camper.

Needed a new helmet after being in an accident when a car stops in the middle of the intersection in my path only to continue driving straight. Hard to explain the whole situation but old helmet is a goner.
Cant ride my bike yet as Im still healing, but looking forward to when I can.
Helmets work. Use them.

Deda Mistral bartape. Inexpensive and matches my saddle.

Picked up a set of 2010 Mavic Ellipses today for $250 for my Mash. Moved my black deep V's to the kilo.
The rear ellipse has a lot of resistance and makes a squeaking sound, I assume it needs new bearings? Are all hub cartridge bearings the same size and just varying quality or will I need a specific spec?
There is also a loctited lockring on one side, that I hope my LBS can get off, however the other side is fine.

No wonder it was $250! 
I bought some Eneloops for my flashlight and a camera mount.
I'm considering finding something to build as a polo bike...
