Did more work on the "Road Warrior" aka piece of shit bike.

Love how people try to act like WD40 is useless, just to try catch people out.

Rode, did barspins, tables, stomped my heel, and kicked the ground making my toe nice and swollen again. It was fun.

Also got a dent in my crossbar on my 4pc'ers. Made me sad for a while. Looking for a cool sticker to cover it up now.

Also missed my front peg while hauling ass to DP the quarter. I caught myself and did a wild cartwheel on accident.

Moved it to the other side of the room while cleaning.

Put my skateboard on top of it while it was in my trunk.

Installed a 2.35 aitken on the rear... rode the trails at lunch. 2.35" front and rear is so awesome!

installed a 27t fit sprocket and then worked on my ratchet til i got frustrated. i just got that odyssey webstore ratchet/ribcage deal and since upgrading to a 10t it runs like shit. if i run it with the supplied metal bash washer the driver binds a lot and backpedaling takes more effort. if i run it without the bash washer it skips and the chain wants to rub against the hubshell. halp, i'm trying to go for a ride tonight and it'd be nice to have a smooth hub.

Yea this was a deal I couldn't pass up. I love people who sell their bikes because they quit riding haha.

WD stands for water displacer so it is in fact the opposite of a lubricant. WD40 is helpful in some applications but is for the most part something that doesn't need to be close to a bicycle.
