Love it, some of my best pieces of cycling clothing aren't cycling clothing :)

Do golfers who don't use a cart and choose to walk the course get mad at golfers who use golf carts in the same way that some mtb riders get mad at people who ride ebikes?

The blue surface? Love that frame. Don't get rid of it, turn it in to a badass grocery bike. 

Or don't and sell it to me lol

;)

Can't wait.  The photos have all been really great lately :)

Unrelated, but that rock feature on Cabin / TNT looks awesome from that angle, and that last shot looks like a killer line. I've never seen that one in person. Looks fun!

Yeah I saw that one too, seems to be pretty well liked by most.

That's basically been the driving reason since I saw it ha ha

I just don't think I need a bike a big as the Range, the Fluid is a nice bike but doesn't excite me,  and I've regret selling my Wideangle for years. 

Wondering if I can catch some of the Chromag magic again in a little more forgiving package

Oh, and my ever increasing quest to downsize our belongings.

Yeah the Darco :) It would replace my Range and Fluid. Would just be down to 1 bike.

All I know is that it's been hard to resist selling my bikes to buy one.

For no logical reason.

And yeah, Steve & Meg take wonderful images.

Super nice folks as well!

Kind of on topic to the "who eats out" thread, Michael Ruhlman wrote a few books about cooking and becoming a chef that are great reads.

The Soul of a Chef, The Making of a Chef, and The Reach of a Chef are all fantastic and each give a different perspective in the professional chef world. The first 2 are more on the practical experience and the third is the impact of a chef in the modern (at the time of writing) world of media.

All hail our technological overlords!

tytyty very much for your work :)

Still nice to go to a restaurant occasionally, the less often you go the more special it feels!

Definitely :)

I cooked for a living for years so when I do go out I try to make it a place in a style I don't have experience in, ramen or asian / indian.

PM'd  :)

Clearing out the garage, some stuff I haven't used or looked at for years and some brand new stuff I acquired through various industry friends.

PM or reply here if interested.

I just assumed they were cold since they were just attached to the toilets lol, I never gave it any thought before now. Of course you could run a line or they could have a heater in them I just never spent a lot of time thinking about bidets I guess :D

I don't think I could deal with the cold water tbh

Well for some totally anecdotal and essentially completely useless information...

I worked for the Blackspire distributor for a while and I don't think I saw more than a relative handful of items come back defective. Whenever I walked by the bins of defective product the Blackspire bin never had more than 5 or 6 bad items in it, and I personally processed very few Blackspire warranties.

I have no idea whether that was because the products were fantastic and had no issues, or if none of them were leaving the warehouse in the first place or what. The biggest offenders I can remember is seeing 2 or 3 items mislabeled / mis-packaged from their factory, like a 32t ring in a package with a 30t sticker on it or something like that.

I always loved all my Blackspire stuff.
