I just bought this one yesterday:

Wow, I have not seen a kickstand in quite some time!

Looking to buy a road bike. Not a Cannondale dealer in sight...but I want the Synapse Carbon 3....or looking at a Giant Defy Advanced something as the LHS here sells them... Leaning toward the Cannondale, or looking at possibly going for a very nice steel framed road bike..

Decisions decisions...

Mmm, beautiful! Personally I lust after a Cinelli Mash, however.

Post a picture when the Vigorelli is built up! :)

Also, if that's a picture of your place, also beautiful!

Sorry about any possible typos. I'm rather buzzed. Ugh.

I have one on my hybrid. :p I love the kickstand!


Speaking of bikes, I've been looking at possibly making my own steel frame road bike. :)

I don't know much about bike parts, and I knew that if I went to buy parts on my own, there would be so many incompatibilities in size, length, and diameter between the parts I buy, and the frame, hub, tyres, etc etc, that I have contacted a local bike shop who specialises in making custom bikes, and asked them to purchase the parts that would definitely work together, and sell the parts to me without the labour (although I'm sure I'd need to pay them for consultation time + the time they spent ordering parts). :)


I can't afford the custom frame I want (a $9000 Llewellyn :eek:), so the shop I'm going to will probably get me a Surly Steam Roller frame. :) I'll have them powdercoat it either in dark red, green, or dark blue, or a light "cookie monster" blue. ;)

^^Love my Keurig! Haven't had the Donut Shop coffee. Try out the Newman's Extra Bold. Very good. :D

I'll put it on the list, thanks. I'm more of a medium to medium-dark roast kind of guy though.

The vanilla is for teh wife, but I'm sure I'll give it a try.

Do you use tap water, or is it better to use distilled water?

I use tap water. :)

The Newman's Own Extra Bold is a bold flavor, but it's not bitter like many of them are. If you search Google for them you will find a lot of great reviews. Sometimes they can be hard to find.

Let me know what you think of the Donut Shop one's! It would be appropriate since I just got hired with a local Sheriff's department. :D:eek:

I'll look into the Newman's Own. Maybe Amazon has it.....

Well, this Donut Shop flavor/brand has excellent reviews, so I went for it. I'll let you know what I think when it's delivered.

2 - 12 packs. These are the days I wish I had a second fridge. This stuff is nearly out of season. :(
