you're tripped out of your head if you think I'm getting up at 5:30 on a Sunday to go riding with you smelly losers!

That being said........may bee.

Beauty sleep is overrated. But then again in your case, please sleep in.

Looks like there's going to be an 8am start time too, plenty of time for you to get some extra rest. ;)

The only weak link is in the chain, being that it's a shimano, with no power link, I had to break it the old fashioned way. Those pins aren't supposed to be re-usable, but I didn't have a new one to use, hopefully it'll hold up until I can get a power link.

I knew I'd forget about this and it would bite me in the ass. :oops:

I went to pedal hard on Sunday and the chain just pulled apart. I took a link out and put it back together, reusing another pin... :roll: One of these days I'll get a quick link...

Aside from that the bike seems to be holding up well.
