Friday Coffee Club II

[Dickie]

Since I am always heading in the opposite direction I have not been able to enjoy the FCC in DC, so I wondered if anyone else would be interested in starting a parallel FCC in Arlington on Friday mornings? Perhaps at Northside Social? We will have to deal with being the bastard children of the FCC (is that a Clash song?) but that’s pretty fitting for those of us who don’t cross the river all that much. Anyone interested in stopping for java this friday, perhaps around 7:30am?

[X] I am in Kyiv but will come home just to get a Java Shack Jersey

Well, duh … but, what about puppies?!

[X] Coffee! Pie! and Cycling Jerseys! All is Well with the Universe YES I want one (as long as it doesn’t come with a puppy)

I think Steve O would like one if it is made from a puppy.

Too lazy to cut and paste, so yeah, me too.

KayakCyndi said to me this past Friday whilst riding in the convoy, “your rear wheel has a bad wobble. I mean bad, like you’ve got a spoke problem or something”.

Yes, I mean exactly like that. Happy new wheelset day!

I got bubblegum stuck to my front tire this morning and was wondering if that sufficiently warranted a new wheelset ….

I wholeheartedly support your need for a new wheelset. Bubblegum is very dangerous to the integrity of your wheel, and this danger has been known to transfer wirelessly (or possibly through reverse osmosis) to the other wheel that is seemingly unaffected.

May I suggest a set of Lightweights. You know you want them. I believe they are ready to ship from Competitive Cyclist, so if you order today you could receive them before this weekend!

And if you really are crazy enough to buy a set, could I touch them and ride them around a parking lot. Once. Just once. Pretty please?

You know you absolutely need some Zipps for the Viaje.

Bumping the Jersey survey ~ let me know if there is any more interest, and I will report back to Joe Shack.

Interested if it’s around/under $50.

As a vertically challenged person I oppose all this Volagi veneration. The smallest bike they offer is a 50 cm. What about those of us who need less than 50 cm!

Causing us to feel envy and self-pity is evil!!!!!! You are all evil. Just sayin’

Not true. The Lisco is available in a 47, just sayin’.

I need something that will take thicker tires than the Liscio will accept. Plus I ride a 44. The short will inherit the earth some day. :p

Oh, I think you’ve got to get a whole new bike to address that problem. The bi0-hazard is huge!

So, I bought these today as a replacement wheelset. Got them for half the price that I could find anywhere else. Of course, I have to wait 3-5 days before I get them, and since I’m N+0, I’ll have a few days off the bike.
