I would not have remembered that. I think they were still the Redskins at that time. Yes, and we called the student center the res.

Two separate accidents a few minutes apart on my route this morning, I had to turn back because the police shut the road. Boy Racers driving too fast in a winding canyon. They’ve been zooming past me all week. Three total cars over the side.
The ambulance driving down the hill was not making haste.

Fun ride on the fixed gear tonight, up until I was about 2 miles from home and my chain broke
Of course, the break was two links away from the quick link but I couldn't get it apart. Had to make the call of shame to get picked up
Pretty sunset though:

I've noticed the vehicles are driving like it's the last lap at Indy due to less cars on the road.

Mine either, but he's not spending his time here is he? Maybe he's strumming his guitar.

I've just had one fixed chain drop that I can recall. I dropped the chain on my Free Spirit and luckily it jammed weirdly between chainring, chainstay and tire. Rear wheel locked up, no harm done besides bent chain and scratched chainstay.

I've struggled with tires before, but after over an hour with the bead jack AND tying it iff at numerous places, I have given up on seating the first bead. A big part of the problem is the sidewall virtually doesn't exist. I will likely destroy said sidewall before I manage to mount it. Kenda Small Block 8. My new off road tires. I was going for it in order to ride off road tomorrow morning. Not goohhnn happen.

Hey, look! Multi-quote works. Must be the browser- switched from Edge to Firefox.

Never heard of it.
They're not carding people who look old.
