Looked at it in the garage. I just got glasses today for the first time in my life, so I’m still getting used to them, and I was afraid to ride in them.
But I’ll tell you what, now that I can actually see totally clearly, my bike is more beautiful than ever. It’s amazing how much detail you miss when you can’t actually see as good as you think you can.
i put randonneur tires on my beater that i haven’t been on in months, these tires make 48x16 feel a lot steeper than i remember. tomorrow i’m switching out the chainring.
…and moved my computer and light to it. It looks lame and kinda is, but now my light will work better and I have some free space on my bars. Then I went for a 15 mile ride with the girl.

i remember when i first got glasses and i walked out of the optometrists and just stared at this tree for about 10 minutes. so many leaves, all minutely different and shifting in the wind. totally blew my mind
you took it to the shot to get bars straightened?[/quote][/quote]
Nah, she took it to the shop because she was hit by a car and wanted to make sure it was safe to ride. Crooked bars is all that was wrong.
i fucking rode that shit to a fucking party and got fucking drunk then i rode that shit back and fucking threw it on my fucking floor and went the fuck to bed how do you like that shit what are you gonna fuckin do about that shit huh
rode aimlessly for 3 hours in the middle of buttfucking egypt. all the snow that melted froze again while i was riding. ate shit countless times, hard, one time getting my wrist jammed in with my spok and fork (no idea how the hell it happened). i am now bruised everywhere and my wrist kills and the dustcaps on my MKS AR2’s fell off somewhere and my pedals have more dirt than bearings in them.
now i will make strap doublers and watch my spok spin for approximately 5 minutes.
