Sounds good. Ling gave me your u-lock and hat by the way, so I'll give them to you tonight.
does anyone know if I need to take my own pedals to alpenrose for a rental? Or do they have rentals with pedals and cages? (sorry if this is the wrong thread I couldn't find a better one).
they have clips but if you want clipless you will have to bring your own pedals. i think there is a wednesday track class thread somewhere around here...
Anyone wanna ride over to the E. Park Bball courts and hoop it up sometime?
jvandub:Anyone wanna ride over to the E. Park Bball courts and hoop it up sometime?
Yes. I was just telling everyone yesterday how badly I want to play basketball.
Since it looks like track class is going to get rained out, Zac and I are going to hit springwater and PUT SOME MILES IN, damnit. Meet at my place (NW 16th & Burnside) at 6:00 PM.
I have no idea why anyone with a track bike would volunteer for that torture. Don't any of you like your genitals?
Ben and Justin Fisher (Stine) and Justin Serna and I did it yesterday and I was the only one not riding a track bike. It was pretty sweet, too.
As I have ridden it many times. Of city trails to ride a track bike on, that's got to be the worst.
P.S. I'm sure those kids are nice peoples, but the names are totally irrelevant to that being a good trail.

Well we're putting on spandex with padding, so that helps. Anyway, it's a fun ride! If anyone wants to come out, just let me know.

I hate to sound like a stickler, as my mom would say, but spandex or not, that ride is not good on your joints. Especially on a track bike.
Then again, most kids I see don't even have their knees lined up over their pedals on their bikes. So if you can't walk, might as well not be able to write when you're older either.

I got it, but I'm not riding a track bike, so I'm still doing it! It's a pretty ride with lots of wildlife (including the chipmunk that Justin decapitated yesterday - I had to out you on this!) and I have fun. Not going to change my mind, Maxbear.
i thought it was hard and it hurt
i rode i guess 8 miles? and i did fine with soaked jeans and a track bike
some parts are shitty, maybe farther out.
zelah:i rode i guess 8 miles? and i did fine with soaked jeans and a track bike

Yeah, I don't think it's too bad. And round-trip you did 16-17 miles.
It was a nice ride, even in the rain. It was when we stopped because Zac got a flat that I started to get really cold. The cold zaps your energy, for sure. I need to invest in some leg/arm spandex warmers or whatever.
I used rollers for the first time last night. Had a lot of fun. Realized how swervy I am though...hard to stay on at first. Really fun for practicing sprints.
because i am a shitbag (I ride bikes, i don't ride bikes) this is the only lycra i'll wear

Self-deprecation is so cool.
how do you keep quoting yourself like that?
and poking fun at yourself is fine
Personally, I love lycra. My ass thanks me every time I wear padded shorts.
yes it saves your LABIAS!
i just wanted to say labia...
playground_terror:yes it saves your LABIAS!

Oh god, I'm so glad you did. It's so true.
