    The stupid injury thread.

    Well not stupid but the only time I hurt my back was 2 years ago. I got out of bed and it went on me. Never got better although it no longer is so painful that I can't do anything I want. But I only have to bend at the waist to be reminded that it's still there. Hence I've been really careful...

    The Bicycle / Biking Gear Thread

    Thanks though the guy I talked with said that you could definitely find replacements and there was a shop around that would do custom replacements if necessary. Because I am on the road I won't be able to do any measurements or anything like that other than the wheel size which is 27". Also no...

    The Bicycle / Biking Gear Thread

    I do a fair bit of normal work on my bikes and I was planning to redo the head bearings and possible convert the bottom bracket to a sealed cartridge one on the old bike but we'll see now. My biggest problem is that I don't have a space to work on the bike and leave parts lying around for days...

    Well here it is, the first "music video" from my original EP. It's kind of cheesy but I hope when you watch it you feel pure elation, ecstasy even...!

    I'll have to listen to it a few more times but first impressions are great. I like the lyrics and the whole groove of the song. Well done :thu:

    The Bicycle / Biking Gear Thread

    I think I took some liberties with the adage (I actually think it's related to motorcycles and accidents in general not cars specifically :shrug: ). On reflection I realized just how lucky I was. A second earlier (or a wee bit faster) and the car probably hits me rather than me Tboning him. I...

    The Bicycle / Biking Gear Thread

    Well the old adage has come to roost (it's not if you get hit by a car it's when). And the when was this morning on the way back from the gym. Dude stopped at a stop sign (I saw him) and then as I was about 20' away he decided it was safe to do a u turn. It was not. Fortunately I was able to...

    It’s May 1980

    Well that's a layup cause IIRC it was the first of the many final concerts for THE WHO and I saw it. Other than that I would take in no particular order The Pretenders Rough Trade Teenage Head The Ramones and the Montreal Blues festival But being a college student with no car (and not a lot of...

    Lunch: I hit the Sweetwater jackpot!

    Last thing I got from Sweetwater (10 pack of strings) there was NO CANDY. I was outraged

    Anyone commuting on a bicycle regularly?

    If I did the food shopping I would be tempted to get a cargo e-bike. But I don't and the wife wouldn't consider it. I'll just stick with my regular bikes and complain about people with the cheater bikes :wave:

    My gran is on the way out

    I'm sure it's sad for you and your family. In a similar situation when my Gran died also at 96. I was kind of down about it but I went to my music lesson since it was already scheduled. It was at a recording studio and there was a drummer who I had gotten to know (before my lesson there was a...

    Sorry to hear that. Though (and I've said it before) you have failed miserably at retirement :wave:
