The Thread about Nothing....

Hey Paul,

I had to check up on some conference times and it got me wondering which conference you are attending in Vegas.

Could it be either;

1/ World Piano Pedagogy
2/ American Acadamy of Implant Dentistry
3/ International Concrete Repair Institute
4/ American Society of Tax Problem solvers
5/ Theory of Constraints Intenational Certification Org
6/ Black Data Processing Association- National Executive

Then I found it........... Cheesfest.org......... and at Hooters of course!!

Here you go, another virtual cuddle for you [img]starwarsloser.infolove0047.gifOpen ↗[/img]

And you can still have fun without the alcohol, you know. 😄

OZ- Made a return to the tuesdee ride yet? I don't think I'l be there for a while with exams coming up and all...

yeah, I did the last couple -- pretty busy. I even did last Thursday night in the rain!! Stoopid! I was about to go home, thinking no-one would show, then I saw 25-odd guys coming up Kilby Rd. So I thought if they were silly enough to do it, then so was I. 🙂 It was a bit [censored]; I'm not a good enough rider to stop my rear wheel slipping on the hills when I'm off the seat :p

Anyone who has storage difficulties with their steeds... Phantom is selling 4 bike racks for $50. They're normally about $200. Clicky

Get em while they last.

Beebs - looking at you mate, It'd look pretty sweet in your joint.

Sold. Thanks mate.
Looks like I've got an ultrahotty German totty moving in as a flatmate this week for a few months, you'll have to pop around more often for beers, and to um check out the new bike rack 😎 I could be in trouble for this choice, I get the feeling the GF's won't like it.

Why, its only a bike rack. :p

One of the blokes working at the LBS was showing off his new track bike he'll be riding at the Masters, pursuit I think, an absolutely stunning full carbon monocoque Teschner beast with an awesome smoky red flame/grey/black airbrushed paint scheme. One of the meanest and nicest looking bikes I've ever seen I reckon.

Wasnt Computer at Cranks in NSyd was it? Matching helmet with flame skull and red mohawk?

That's the man. Although the mohawk's at least four different colours at the moment. He's a good mate of my RD wrecking friend, they used to love getting together to rip peoples legs off. He seems like a good bloke.

OH I know😄 , it's just the stingyness in me showing through, cause next time I'm out I'll be paying an arm and a leg for all this grog when I could've enjoyed an all you can drink buffet for free only a week before...but hey, [censored] happens.

OZ- Sure you've heard it before, but.... keep you weight back when outta the saddle! Instead of trying to kneebash your handlebars try keeping ya arms straighter so you're pushed a bit away from the front...

Excellent. I propose a German bier night, to go with the checking out of the rack. We could even go to that German restaurant... 😄

yeah, but while I was thinking about that, the little blokes were scooting away from me 🙂

that's one reason I went to 130mm stems; I nearly knocked the bars out of my hands a few times :p

That's a bit strange isn't it?
Did your back complain about it?

Geez if you are going to whinge about it, i'll get you a bottle of grog when going through Duty Free on my way back from watching Giro di Lombardia in person next week. Whats ur poison? :p

I get the same problems with a stem shorter than 120.. Problem with havng long legs and a short torso...and a [censored] pedalling technique:p

nah, I was already using 120, so I just moved the STIs back a little with the 130

same here. I usually have to shorten my bib straps a little. It was a drag trying to fit the 177.5mm cranks on my smaller bikes without smashing my knees on the bars
