I'm a graphic designer. I was offered a better opportunity, so I finally got the nerve to get out of this one. I did weekly ads for a couple of grocery chains. I may finally have time to get back into painting now with this change.

Get a set of these and you can drop the paceline: http://velonews.com/article/9673 Dude! I can't wait to get those bad boys on my bike! My goal is to hit supersonic speeds down Ramsay Hill in St Paul!

Not sure where you live, but there are a few very nice bikes in that price range. Take a look at the TREK 1.5, very nice aluminum bike w/ a carbon fork. The equivalent Specialized is either the Sequioa elite or possible one of the Roubaixs. Find a good local bike shop, talk to the folks, and ride a few. If after you do that, and feel comfortable buying used, Craigslist can offer up some bargains if you are patient. Good Luck! If you lived near Minneapolis, I would say to come and ride my Trek 1.5 that I have for sale! :) Fortunately, I'm adhering to a pretty strict, uh, drug, uh, regimen to keep my mind, you know, uh, limber. --- The Dude ---

Welllll, maybe? I have Ksyrium Elites on my Novara, and a few weeks ago on the MS250 I hit a chuckhole so hard I lost a water bottle (and part of my spleen, I think) but the wheel was still perfect. I got a GREAT deal on the Aksiums, so I will give them a try, and if I want to step up I can sell them for what I paid for them. I will keep everyone posted as I do the build up, with pics! Now, I just wish I could ride, damn busted foot. Fortunately, I'm adhering to a pretty strict, uh, drug, uh, regimen to keep my mind, you know, uh, limber. --- The Dude ---

I have a couple sets of Aksiums, and my main bike has Ksyrium Elites. I weigh 235, and in the MS150 I hit a chuck hole so hard I lost a water bottle, but the Ksyrium Elite took it like a champ! Still rolling true! The Ksyrium Elites are pretty damn bulletproof! The bikes I have (currently) are - Trek 1.5 2008 Shimano Sora / Tiagra components, Bontrager wheels / tires Novara Squadra Team 2008 SRAM Force components, Ksyrium ELite wheels Specialized S-Works X-cross bike - Dura ace components, weird H-bar handlebars, Ksyrium Aksium wheels (street) Campy Atlanta 1996 w/ shimano hubs (dirt) (affectionately known as Franken-Bike) Schwinn Paramount 1992 - Shimano components Cool White w/ Purple Slime paint job. Cyfac Tigre 2005 - currently in process of being built. Campy Record 10-speed, Ksyrium SL SSC wheels. Salsa drops, Selle Italia seat. New frameset - Cyfac Infini Carbone. This is hte one I am trying to decide what Gruppo to put on it. I have some Aksium wheels that can go on, or, who knows. I should probably open a used bike store on weekends!

I am picking up a new frameset to build up, and I was thinking of going with a Campagnolo group, but, I haven't ridden an Ultegra (or Dura Ace) group. This is a very high end frame, a Cyfac Infini Carbone, so it will desere a good group! I already have a set of Mavic Aksium wheels, for Shimano, but it is easy to convert to Campagnolo for a few bucks. Any thoughts?

I would recommend american cheese w/ bacon, as the cheddar got a bit greasy. Oh, if you have never had a Jucy Lucy, do NOT bite into it right off the grill, the cheese is like molten lava and will burn your lips off. edited to fix my lame spelling Fortunately, I'm adhering to a pretty strict, uh, drug, uh, regimen to keep my mind, you know, uh, limber. --- The Dude ---

I was taking an Aleve every morning to help with the arthritis in my neck, but I was told not to take Aleve until my broken foot heals, as it can lengthen the healing time. Weird, but I stopped the Aleve. Fortunately, I'm adhering to a pretty strict, uh, drug, uh, regimen to keep my mind, you know, uh, limber. --- The Dude ---

I had the pleasure of meeting Bill and talking to him for a bit at SkyFest, and, had the honor of having Bill sign off on one of my A License requirements on my card! The skyhook demo's were pretty remarkable, and watching people do the intentional cutaways on the skyhook was great fun! Great documentary, what an amazing person!

No jumpy for me, due to a) broken foot and b) crappy weather. Picked up some bike parts for the bicycle I am building, now, I am sitting on the couch listening to it POUR, with thunder and lightning. May venture out later, but feel like crap, to be honest. Happy 4th everyone! Please post your exploits so I can live vicariously through you!
