i'll let you know what she decides to do with the bike, although honestly, we will probably keep it as a spare bike. she got the wheels as part of a group buy, but i was still shocked when i found out how much they were. apparently, they make a pretty big difference. apparently, there are officials on the bike course and no drafting is allowed. 5k miles?? wow

Relax bro. It's a joke. You're not mad at me, you're mad at your dad

Sounds like a keeper

Difference between a BMW and a porcupine?

its crazy. i thought about getting every 10lbs once you get past 50lbs, but i don't think they make sets like that. we just added a huge home gym in our basement, so i've got a shit ton of room. will likely get the whole set.

a couple weeks away and counting. i'll be at wild wings cafe in hilton head for the first two games getting hammered. its becoming a yearly tradition--get my brother in law as drunk as possible, and piss my wife off while she's watching the kids at the pool.

+rep i've had a rough day, but this comment just made my day funniest shit i've heard in a while

i like troy dumbbells. i like the ones with plates on each side---the non-solid ones. i think they are called troy pro-style dumbbells. i'm looking for a full set---5-100lbs, and then maybe a 110 and 120 set. http://www.dumbbellbuddy.com/dumbbellpacks/troygrey_rubber_endcap.html

does this mean d. wiggs has to make a second call out thread here, since this is a different car?? congrats on another sweet ride

+1 if you don't want to lay hands on the kids, i get it. at least stop the damn bus, get off your fucking ass, and get in the way. you don't have to raise an arm--simply get in their way and block them. and check on the victim.

how do you know that you have sponylo?? have you had HLA testing?? when in doubt, seek a second opinion. MTX is a 'no joke' medication. there are better ones out there, but they are expensive as shit

having owned 6 foxes in the past, and currently owning an 'earlier' fox, a stock '98 weighs more, has less torque, and similar power. it will have a difficult time running with an earlier fox. ford came to the table with their modular motors too early. plain and simple. i wouldn't take a stock non-pi headed mustang if it was given to me

pretty sound logic

i'm calling b.s.. no way a '98 mustang can go 126mph---you would need a several mile stretch of perfectly straight road. and a tailwind. i just don't see it. 215hp (at most), and no top end. the 'failed abortion' of the mustang world. least torque, least hp of any mustang from '79 on.

106 miles----crazy. i'm not sure how much drafting goes on during these events, i'll have to ask my wife. she does most of her rides solo---a few mixed solo/group rides, and then a fair amount on her trainer. her ride is a felt carbon frame, with zipp wheels and a power meter sprocket. she wants a dedicated triathlon bike this winter for next season

Jeff, post up some pics of your cars. Sounds like you've had quite the collection over the years. Welcome to the site

bump my wife just finished her second half ironman yesterday---nuts. she beat her previous time and finished 13 in her age group and 53rd out of all the women. i think there were over 3000 competitors--this was an official ironman sponsored event. pretty serious competitors there. her time was 5:31:21. the bike is her strongest event. she finished the 56 mile course in 2:39, for an average of 21.10mph. no thanks. 1.2 mile swim was against the current, with decent sized waves. she did fine for the half marathon at the end, as well.

+1 Don't jack around with anything else. These motors are everywhere, and can take to mods. They are cheap, and you can get one with all the electronics, etc. add boost, rape, repeat.

I'm game. If I don't buy something exotic in the next two years I'll go for one of the z versions.

Same thing at McDonald's. tons of fucking prep work. They have to put lids on shit and put stuff in a bag, put the drinks in a carrier, and throw napkins and ketchup packets in the bag. I tip for service. Carry out is not seen as 'waiting' in my mind. You will likely disagree, but that's how most see it.

Wi ftw!! I can buy ever clear 24-7, and my hoa just approved barrels for burning. Lol

+1 the jay leno lawsuit takes the cake.

i'm ready. i'll be watching the first two games in hilton head at wild wings cafe, with my brother in law----we have a tradition of getting drunk as hell for the first game of the year. wife and i also have tickets to the wisconsin game--pretty pumped about that, since i live in wisconsin, and all my colleagues give me crap about the buckeyes

i'm about to plastidip my son's powerwheels raptor. got 3 cans from home depot. they had white, blue, black, red. i'll post some pics tomorrow.

lol. looks like he should be in an austin powers movie. truly fantastic job on the header wrap. that's quite a bit of progress on the car in one year's time.
