If FEMA had the bicycles, would it fund Hustler's manlet bib?

Oh yeah it will be when I get there. Maybe I'll be able to do 5 days in a row come September, but I'm not there yet. Gotta train the grundle and legs a little more first.

I'm considering the Denver, central CA, and actually DFW area as well. Sounds like one of these is not like the other for cycling.

If you transfer to SF area
and my wife transfers to oakland/berkeley
I've got plenty of bikey friends there. I will go out and buy whatever ridiculous bicycle du jour you guys are into and become a cyclist. Just out of shock that we all ended up in the bay area.

I'll even consider shaving my legs as tribute because I don't even care.

Do you think more than one size bicycle could be a possibility?

Is it totally retarded to run my Ultegra crank on the SS Evo? I don't know what to do, but the only two BB30 cranks I'd consider buying are the SL-K with ugly chain rings for $400 or Hollowgram for $1000.

I think I'm going to use the Praxis adapter and my Shimano crank, thoughts?

Are you asking literally, or bike elitist etiquette-ly?
I see nothing wrong with the adapters. Seems to be what a lot of people do.

Anyone got a 6750 crank they want to part with? I have a 130 at the moment and want to go 110. Preferably 172.5 arms.

Considering he has a set-up like this:

...with a pressurized shower on the other side, I don't think we need to ask that question. I believe he holds the Dirty Kanza amateur record as well. He's ultra diesel.

I love seeing all the ridiculous adventure vans in Moab... always sitting nice and clean on the side of main street. they never actually go off road.
