i'm going to grow a moustach and a mullet.
our coffee maker is faltering under the shear volume we ask it to perform. well, from making us coffee every morning. not exactly banquet volumes. you'd think a fairly expensive coffee maker would be able to hold up (krups). we're thinking about going back to mr coffee (my old one never gave me trouble).
last night, we started robin's training program. run 2 min, walk 4, alternating for 30min. she wants to do a marathon in 2007, so we begin small. after that i did about 30 minutes on the trainer (with individual leg pedaling) and then my core strength circuit. not feeling too sore this morning either. man it felt good to do something.
so, i had been in contact with a pro (jason sager) about buying his team bike from this year. after much debate, i'm going to pass on it. it's a nicer bike than i will ever be able (or want to) buy full price but the high miles will ultimately keep me from buying it. thing is, if i'm spending that kind of green on a bicycle i want it to be new. i still want a cannondale, but it will most likely be a new scalpel 2000. it's got the carbon lefty, and actually the identical frame to that i was going to buy. full xt. the only thing i wish it had was the crossmax wheels. maybe i can work that out...
this weekend, well, tomorrow morning greg and i are playing in a scramble gold tournament in dubuque. then it's back home to head to sammy's for the big halloween bash. ron is pumped that he has his schwin ready to jump fires. that bike is old man, hopefully we don't have a repeat of this....
this sucks
this is bad on several levels...
1) circa early 1990s equipment (this is from 3 wks ago)
2) the chain is dangling
3) the chain is the least of his problems, look where the bike broke up front(wtf)!!
hey dude, i know a great ortho pa!!
