Wow, how long did it take you @_@ over two weeks? one week?

dude, just talking to you makes me feel terrible about myself XD

Oh well >_>

by SleepyNinja Sun Sep 13, 2009 11:09 pm

Don't feel bad that was my all time high, but right now I'm at the lowest I've felt in a while haven't touched either of my bike in about 2-3 weeks now.

cool trip!
Welcome back btw!

Don't worry man, it's just the same with me! I haven't regained my motivation since a one-week trip in early august.

Well got back on the bike 2 days ago after I did some maintenance. Bike worked great no more squeaky left crank (no more rain rides ever again). I on the other hand I suck again its starting to get cooler faster in the day now so I better bust out the trainer and actually use it this winter.

dunno if you guys are riding anymore but I am :p

just ran a quick 4 miles on relatively flat land followed directly by switching my shoes and clippin in and riding another 60 miles on decent rollers (+800 ft max roller most were only around 400 ft though). All in all, came back with salt deposits on my forehead lol. Took me 3 hours and 35 minutes total. Leg cramped at the last light before I clipped in again (I cant track stand for longer then a minute :/) and I looked like a fool going up the bridge lol.

Hey, cool!! A companion Very Happy

.
Sure I'm still riding! Currently thinking about whether to buy this (http://www.stevensbikes.de/2010/index.php?bik_id=13&lang=de_DE&cou=CH&sect=description#inhalt) bike or not.
60 miles, not bad for the newly started season^^. I'm still stuck at the 50 miles mark with my sessions.
Whoa, leg cramp ey...I can somewhat feel with you there. It always happens in the most indisposed moments.

I outgrew my bike.....but I want to get a new one >_>

Thats a sleek bike! Are you going to go with the chorus campy set or sram red or dura ace? Man I want to get a carbon bike Surprised

Gaia : So get a new one Razz

Right now I'm broke. Trying to find a way to get some money but I don't have the time for a job =.=

I'm still riding too I completed my first metric century of the year 5 days ago. (that was a horribly planned ride I was so not ready for it) And yesterday I went for a quick ride to see how far I have recovered from my metric century almost back to normal aches and pain are gone now Very Happy

. SilentGaia you should think about doing a frame and fork swap if the components on your old bike are still good it ought to be cheaper then buying a new bike.
