Can I ride one on the many miles of trails in the state?
Seriously....I have been thinking about a fall tour in the state using several trails. I might start and end in Fargo, doing a big loop as far north as Bemidji them heading down to Walker and Bowlus before turning northwest, roughly following the I094 corridor back to Fargo. It's all part of an Adventure Cycling route.
Do you think starting the third Saturday in September (9/16) would be o.k. weather-wise?

So, dude is asking $645 for the 2011 QR Kilo. I see a NOS one online (in the xs size only) at $949. I'm thinking the used bike is probably worth about $450. Agree? Disagree?

I do need new arm warmers though. I somehow managed to lose mine climbing Going to the Sun.

In relation to this:
I had to go download the source to my fav compiling game today, SDL-ball.
Like, I had to go in and make some improvements for my awesomeness. The score was only stored in an 'int' type (so would get to just over 2 billion, and then turn to -2 billion over and over). I changed it to and 'unsigned long long' which will get me to 18,446,744,073,709,551,615. Now to see how long it takes me to get there. Gonna be doing a lot of compiling...
