If he went a mere five miles south to Corona Del Mar, the Tommy Bahama Police and the Ralph Loren SWAT Team would arrest him for indecent exposure.

Huntington Beach is still a calm beach town. I took my tests there, afterwards rode my bike around and went to Seal Beach. It was chill as ****.

I really need something cheap to commute on that can hold crap. If you ever think about getting rid of it be sure to hit me up!Edit: Took about 2 hours to get all the sticker residue off though. That was a pain. Looks good now, though.

Just used a propane torch and some picture frame wire to hold it in place after test fitting and marking location. Placement ended up being ~2mm low so I had to add the two flat washers pictured between the caliper and adapter.

Installed that new bar tape, it looks like gauze but we will see how it breaks in.

Today I learned about Dakar MB's from the 80's -- I really want one now for some reason. Lugged construction, good build quality and decent looks..

NOW I RIDE IT IN THE DOWNPOUR!!!

Someone please let me know what type of crankset this is.
Land Shark Track Shark - Pedal Room
Love the black cranks/spider and the polished disc ring with no cut outs.
I'm a little picky and really like this style/look...I'm hoping it's not ultra-rare/$$$ (I'll always see something I want and then find out it's expensive/rare, lol).
Thanks

Today (last Friday actually) I thought it would be totally epic to extend my commute home by about 34 miles and make it a 44 mile ride instead of 10 miles. I made this genius decision after I was nearly bonking from the get-go. Fast forward 20 miles and both of my legs would almost completely cramp up if I encountered a hill or stopped pedaling for any length of time. I was *this close* to having to make a Call of Shame from the middle-of-nowhere. Thank God for electrolytes.

Landshark bikes are sweet -- I see road bikes from time to time on CL in SanFran, so rad!
