WIll VIR track day be for this yr or next ?

Sup ppl, got ROTORA BBK installed ... what an experience installing new SS lines as well .... keyword: patience .... Brakes are awesome

Next on pipeline Pedders LCA bushing & CS 1.4Bar radiator Cap & Bronze oil bushings for shift ... once the rains stops that is.

Well, I've made two rides on the new mountain bike so far. Hoping to get another one in tomorrow. The local conservation area is about a 10-15 minute bike ride away but i've been driving to the trail head. Once I build up my stamina I think I'll ride it...but it is uphill so it will a bit of edge off my legs once i finally hit the trail. I found a group of guys that ride frequently in Londonderry. Met one of them on my ride yesterday. I'll really have to get in shape to keep up though. I'm fine on the downhill stuff (actually I'm a bit quicker) but i can't hack the uphills.

Won't it be icy even for VIR around February ?

just awesome! great time, great people!!


cool! i see the guy who had that red civic is driving it now....looked at it last week...it is like showroom, although he does have a door ding now. my son in law says hell just beat the crap out of it until it dies...what a shame on such a pristine car (90 2 door civic dx, 6k orig miles!)

No pics from the event Mark ? BTW, civics will always be civics no matter what ... had one for short time as well ... they love to take abuse.

Nice wheels man, will be hard keeping them clean though with all those cross-fork design.

Put an electric motor to make uphill a bit easier :P

yup, http://www.mazdas247.com/forum/show...-Corral-Pics&p=5784429&viewfull=1#post5784429 (not mine though!)
 
Nice. I totally failed this year on biking. I never took the MTB out this year. I only took the road bike out a handful of times. Fell way short of my mileage goal this year. *Sigh* Guess I'll have to step it up a notch on the trainer this winter.
 
Morning all and thanks for all of the kind words. Tamz is feeling better but the beta blocker is making her feel dizzy and lightheaded in the mornings. That should change once her body adjusts to it, if not then it will be trial and error time with a different one. Her headaches are pretty much under control, which is good and bp is still spiking here and there but the dr. told her this is normal until the beta blocker gets in her system..should be about two weeks or so.

Couldn't see the wheels Phen but I'll check them out when I get home...same goes for your new project Ash. Sounds exciting about the biking Chris and I'm right there with you on the out-of-shape part plus the seat on my bike sucks and hurts my a$$ so when I do ride it, which is normally around the block once or twice, I'm standing the whole way. lol

On the homefront the bathroom remodel is done...thanks to my bro-in-laws dad who upon a phone call put some other stuff on hold to come over and help me (re: do all of the big stuff himself since I'm still in PT from the accident and limited on lifting and such). It turned out great and now all we have to do is paint and get the trim pieces back up.

Happy hump day all.

Bruce, you get in on the "I'm with marlon" t shirt group buy?

Shower looks great jeff! By the way, I showed robin the shower head and we're going to get the same one! Glad to hear there's some better news on the medical front!! Hang in there dude!
 
Word up Phenda!

So, I'm finally getting off my butt to take the 6 in for that rattle on initial start up... I have a feeling I know what it is, but I'd rather get it checked out instead. That and these last few business trips with the car will pay for any repairs.
