dave's cosmic subs on coventry. i think it was the "cosmic sauce" vinagrette stuff that caused it. i want to try them again without the suace just because they had a few vegetarian sandwiches at a decent price. next time my stomach feels strong i'll see if i'm up to a re-match.

the place on the corner by the corner store?

Painted it and regret it already. Raw frames are the only way.

i dunno i dig tan. i painted it and haven't had the urge to strip it to raw like i have with black or any other color.

i had plans to hit chenga 2 with scramhyphy today, but instead i had to be a jackass last night and try a different sandwich shop only to get food poisoning. i did have a couple skatepark dreams during my naps between puking sessions though, so it wasn't all bad.

which place so i know not to go there

got my g sport guard today and some eclat tibias to replace my twombolts. waiting for my bars still but i am kind of getting use to my small ugly bars so i might try to find some scerbos to jib with on and off. definitely like throwing bars with smaller joints.

HMMMMM.....

I'll have to look into these.  I've been wanting some wider pedals for my MTB but I'm on a tight budget.

EDIT: And for the record, while I usually try to support my LBS I cannot get over the ridiculous markup on pedals.  I will never pay full price for a new set of nice pedals... so if I can save on them I will.

I don't know if the actual materials are different but $30 is awesome no matter what. And I was going to spend my money at the shop for some pedals but everything was $20+ so I had to pass.

The compounds were $48 +shipping I believe. I got the all plastic Ezra pedals for $20. And the ones that are basically diety compounds are $30.

Purchased a gsport guard and some pedals that look exactly like diety compound pedals. Might get the plastic with metal pins set if the ones I got work great.

got my seat in the mail and also got some butcher pegs today. traded stickers for them so i'm pretty happy with the trade. i need to get a 3/8s adapter though but they look like fun. time to order some pedals and possibly a hubguard.

what frame are you lookin at? you seem to be picky about frames haha

to tell you the truth i'm not picky. i just have a problem. i want to try too much shit when i should just say no and save my money for the shit i want. but really i can ride any frame and get used to it i just don't want to. parts are my issue but the two things that i noticed were holding my back have been changed so now it's just time for a fresh frame. I really wanted a Deathrow or V2 deathrow but that MAC is looking great. I also am pretty partial to the Ivy5 since i liked my ivy3. I'll see when i'm able to actually afford a new frame. when i come close something always seems to need my bike money more than my bike.

took a file to the dropout that was giving me lip about putting wheels on. fixed that. i would like to shorten the dropout a little so i can have some room to remove the wheel without having to take my chain off. 27/10 slams s3.5 chain stays. can't wait til i can afford to get a FRESH NEW FRAME!
