Dan, Going to work in Hyannis now? I too have a new appreciation for the latest Kia models. They have come a long way.

 

[NETC_Redd]

Thanks Josh. I have some more parts coming in that'll just replace what I have now: chainring bolts, rotor bolts, skewers and seat post clamp, all red.

Is that for cyclocross? I just started watching some videos on YouTube. Looks like a really fun sport.

 

[NETC_Redd]

Yup, disc brakes, top brake levers, wide fork/chain/seat stays. Soon to be 33mm knobby mud tires.

Sorry for late reply man, out of office for a bit. Can send it to my PayPal if you'd like. sgemme (at) worcester (dot) edu

If you're not comfortable doing this, just let me know and I'll put you down for paying at the mountain on the day of the meet.

Also, Mark - did you fill out the form twice or is there another Mark with a Miata that just signed up?


Edit: NVM - Haha yeah Mark I have you in here twice - I'll delete the second one

ya, what a dope i am...

Thanks guys, waiting to hear on that.
Spent the morning getting tortured at dental cleaning, head is killing me.

wish you the best man!

A good hygienist is worth their weight in gold. I drive up to Danvers Mass to see mine. She's the best.

you drive to danvers for a cleaning, stop in WB i'll do it for half what she charges!

Evening fellers. Just wanted to put this out there that I emailed the woman who coordinates the mountain climbs.

I've put in a request (with required deposit money) in for Saturday, June 8th 2013.

It will be a Dusk Tour. Departure is based on the time of sunset that night.

Still plenty of time to sign up for this for those who haven't yet.

i'm thinking i'll be getting a room for that night...?

G'day folks. How is everyone?

so, what's going on with your car now?

Well I finished building this:

awesome build ash! discovery should have a bicycle build off show!

 

[NETC_Redd]

haha for that to happen it'd be framebuilding, and therefore I'd need to learn how to weld.

 

[chuyler1]

What kind of frame did you start with? Is it a cross-specific frame or just an old steel roadie?

 

[THE Phen]

so, what's going on with your car now?

It's sitting in the garage.

Just bought a keg of Arrogant Bastard Ale for my going away party. Bummer you guys are all so far away!

 

[Crazee D]

Car Sales? Oh boy, that ought to be fun.

Dan, Going to work in Hyannis now? I too have a new appreciation for the latest Kia models. They have come a long way.

Gotta try and make $$ somehow, ya know? Starting training 11/1

Kia's coming out with some good stuff as of late. The Optima is one fine looking car

Yes, I agree! This Kia is the proving ground to get into the Toyota floor.
There's two Toyotas out here, even one ALLLLL the way out in Orleans. I'll be next to the Hyannis one.

But they don't make the Turbo in a manual!!! (╯□)╯︵ ┻━┻

Dagnabit! Well, see, I'm learning already.

i'm with you...my son in law (from southern ct) is about ready to jump out the window!

Already jumped

good luck with the new job dan !!

TY! Come visit sometime!

Yeah, I'm gonna go with the white steelies. 14x6 with 195/75r14 A/T tires. Should give it a more vintage look.

Best choice by far.

Just an update on the mountain climb. I've got a total of $97 out of the $160 for the deposit required to book a date. Just a little more and we'll be signed up. Thanks.

Is there a thread for this? I hadn't heard about it.

TRU DAT! Helps when they're pretty too.

That is Bad-A$$!

You must remember drink a large toast to your New England buddies!

 

[THE Phen]

You know I will!

 

[NETC_Redd]

What kind of frame did you start with? Is it a cross-specific frame or just an old steel roadie?

It's actually a cross-specific aluminum frame with a carbon fork. I'm going to post up the specific details on it soon.

And thanks Dan!

 

[chuyler1]

Ahh I see. Spared no expense! When's your first race?

The one I have does the topical numbing stuff before you get a cleaning... I was like, "OMG!! I DON'T FEEL ANYTHING! NAP TIME!"

 

[NETC_Redd]

Ahh I see. Spared no expense! When's your first race?

Actually this bike was pretty much done on the cheap. Not sure when my first race is, going to see what's in CT next weekend as I'll be down there.
