Maybe someday he'll return when his social exploits crash and burn. He said he went to see a movie when a "hot" female asked if he wanted to come along. Then he ended up stewing through most of it because he paid so much to see an "American propaganda" film. 
How's aqua biking going?

First ride on the Exile Bike. It was only about 100 degrees. I still drank 2 full Big Chill bottles in just under 2 hours.
Thanks to DNA Cycles for taking care of the broken spoke.

How much distance do you need to do?
The last two evenings I went out 75 minutes or so before sunset, intending to do a somewhat easy spin. I ended up going at it pretty hard because it felt so great out.
If I could do that year-round, I would not be too fat for this sport.

I've been working on my swim during the week instead.

Nice bike Jonesy. It certainly must feel a bit different than the Schwinn.
Not too hot around here, especially in the mornings, about 68°. Begins to cool down from around 80° at about 7:30 giving just enough time to get a short ride in.

coasting should buy one of those Hongfu or Dengfu carbon frames and have his family ship him the components off his old bike. Problem solved.

I suppose I can post in here, as I Schwinn. Been commuting with it, and I must say, it is a fabulous bike. Hard part is forgetting I have downtube shifters, and realizing that after trying to move the shifters sideways.
Nice job, rjones. I was skeptical of the paint application method, but it looks great.

Oh I know. I didn't really drink enough during the first hour. I spent the rest of the evening on continous water intake.

schWinning is an attitude, not just an old bike brand.

I could ride to Stonehedge, but I stink at golf. It would be difficult riding with clubs, too.

I did that the last couple of times I was out. It actually was hot water by the time I finished it, so I figure I'll try this today.
