Nah man, just like metal concerts I need to make sure I'm ready for it.
I also bought that same lime green bag, the color had me thinking twice but the price was right, sadly a few days later aother bag went on sale that was solid black

Im not worried about if I can hang or not, my ***** are big enough to be left behind and not feel hurt. However the driving there and spending 2-3-4 hours there is the hold up but just for right now.
I go throuh cycles with time. At times I can go awhile having a handful of free time and other times I feel like the weekends never happen.
Currently I'm making a point to get out and ride, sadly I'm pretty limited to about an hour.
That will change, it always does. Although this up coming week is going to suck major *****, Halloween is the busiest night of the year and if people lose power due to the storm and our store keeps power, we will have our asses kicked all week, the kind of busy that causes you to run out of everything. We've stocked up on food in hopes that if **** happens we don't lose power, if we do, we need to transport it all somewhere else to keep from taking a big hit on lost food.
Not looking forward to this week.

At Bon fresco next to race pace bikes. After this I'm picking up my bike ended up going with a cobia. Than off to wegmans than off to find an inline filter for my boost gauge guessing part of the reason the sending unit died was since it didn have a filter on it. Grrrrr

This is what I'm talking about with time.
I woke up at 10 made some coffee and did some small stuff around the house, installed the bike rack and went to race pace to pick up my bike, I bought it online with store pickup so I could get another 5% off by using my discovercard. Once I got there I told them I wanted to test ride it again along side of a 17.5 (I bought a 15.5) again, to me it felt good but the guys there were pretty sure while the 15.5 feels good on a test ride, once I'm on trails it's going to suck. So I pushed a 17.5 up and down as many steep of hills I could find around the shop and I agree, 17.5 started to feel better. No 2012s left at any of their stores in 17.5 so my only option was the 2013 model. So I ended up getting a 2013 cobia. The tires and brakes are not standard trek stuff, guessing they ran out of parts and went with the other option. Tires are both 2.2 vs the stock 2.2 and 2.1 or was it 2.0? Staggered setup. the brakes are avid?
So buy the bike, leave it for them to do the final setup, we go to Wegmans and than back to the bike store and home. Now it's almost 5.... WTF how Is it that every weekend just flys by like this? I still haven't done my #1 goal for today and that's to rewire and remove/replace the boost sending unit on my car.
I might not even get to ride around the neighborhood today......
Does anyone have or know where I can pick up an inline air filter for a boost gauge? It's just a small male to male clear filter. For some reason the old owner didn't feel like using one. Could be why the sending unit died.
