These hangers.... I swear!!

Totally forgot about uploading these pics from a past trip about 6 weeks ago. Was out at Lake Georgetown, about 8 miles into it and was about 103 degrees, my dang hanger snapped! Yes.... I didn't have a chain tool to make my bike a single speed. I had to walk it back, yepper! Oh and did it suck!! 8-miles sucked. I did however lower my seat post and when I can upon a hill to go down, I was rolling down it.

So yea... now I got one of these:

(lesson learned / got it at REI)

Got it today

Went to my LBS and swooped up my roady. Got a new carbon fiber seat-post and just ordered some road shoes. Hope to see there here @ my door step in about 3 business days.

Look what I got from PEARL today

Can't wait to put my cleats on.
Plan to hit up "The Nut" in the AM tomorrow and
try these new shoes out.

Projected plan.....

Got new tires

Pulled off my old WTB Exiwolf tires (XC) and got some new Kenda Nevegals.
This tires sure do grip and move pretty fast on the loose dirt. Now crossing any roads, boy.... these tires sure do drag and roll slow. Of course I know these are only designed for the dirt. Love them so far!!

Miss'in Colorado

Since leaving Colorado @ the end of July all my son and I been doing is talking about when our next trip will be out there. I think next year, we're going to head out in June.
~ For now, it's time for some Walnut Creek, Reimers Ranch, Barton Creek Greenbelt & Lake Georgetown for my trail riding.

I will also soon be riding my roady. Looking to start off weak @ about 40 miles a day and moving up to 75-100 miles bike rides. I know plenty of friends from work that does this normally, or are they normal? haha (kidding).

Here are some pictures from The Nut over last weekend Oct 12, 2008 w/ my friend Frank and my son.

Today.......

Pay day!!
I will be picking up my Roady tomorrow.
~ Still waiting for my new carbon fiber seat-post to come in the mail.

I can't wait!


Pictures of it waiting for me, more soon to come:
