So it's been raining here a lot lately, which is good and all, but it's killing my riding time. I guess if I wasn't such a pussy I'd go out anyway. The good thing with all of my time is that I can go out when the rain stops. That's not always an option when your working 9-5. Over the last few days I've been try'n to clean out the shop/garage. It was getting to the point that you couldn't even walk in there with out the possibility of braking your neck. There's alot of stuff in there, but the ultimate goal it to get the misses in the garage over the winter months.

Of course it had to rain in my parade. I double checked the forcast and there was one tiny little spec that managed to get us.

after


And the tables still a mess...that's today's project and hopefully some welding time as well.

I have come to the conclusion that I am one impatient mother fucker. I don't understand why people even have a business phone if they aren't going to answer them.

I've also decided that I want an instant junky fix to my frame situation and I'm going get something somewhat off the shelf. Stay tuned.

Oh I guess I should also say that I'm still a kempt man...fun times I tell ya, fun times.

I guess I'm living up to "I suck at this". Oh, well life's busy...there's so much that has happened since my last outting. To sume it up I'm now unemployeed man servant to the misses.

On the bike front my beloved UBI bike has decided it's time to retire as well. It's been a fun ride, but in my heart I was always wandering if and when it was going to break. It last day on the trail was July 11, 2009. It was a fine day for a ride and life was good.

Here's a pic...it's such a small thing




The good thing about this happening is that it forces me to move on and get my ass in gear. I've been pussy footing around with this stuff for far to long with little to no progress. So hopefully I will posting some new shots of my next build. It's gonna be a bastard of sorts, with a 29" front wheel and a 650b rear wheel. Things I would like to change with the new bike is to hopefully have a straight rear triangle, shorter stays since I'm running a small tire than 29" and higher bottom bracket. I'm just recently changed the rear tire to the 650b after I was good and tired of dealing with the tire hitting my seatstay. The switch helped and I really like how it (or did) ride.
