Found a 2016 leftover size large frame online at a bike shop in California for $700 off MSRP. Emailed them and asked if they could do any better, and after a bit of back and forth negotiated another $200 off to $2759. Ordered the bike Wednesday and got a phone call a few hours later. Inventory show...

Totally. Her bike is going to last her at least 5-6 years, probably more. It's amazing how much more comfortable and confident she was on it before she wrecked herself. There were spots in the trail where I'd usually wait 20-30 seconds for her to catch up on the old HT on downhills and she'd only b...

@[user not found], not to dig up the dead horse again here but... @4zilch and I were discussing over dinner. What if she just doesn't wash her hands? So she doesn't actually know the soap is out... God I hope not because she kept throwing tater tots at everyone's plates on Tuesday night. Also: not ...

I'm a fucking moron.

I can't be the only one to buy a new bike this week.

Fuck, I've bought two FS bikes in two weeks.

Buying a new fork?

Buying a BMC?

I'm a solid 12-18 months away from replacing the wife's car and 2 years out on my truck. For now, at least.

Unless someone in NJ wants a lease takeover on a loaded up Silverado.

I'd do it. I want 6MT AWD as my next car, so I'm basically golf R, WRX/STI or something like this.

Seeing as I like low car insurance payments, a Countryman would be ideal.

I really was underwhelmed by the Clubman we had as a loaner last week.

I was kinda meh about it after the three met up.

It just shows that it's the chemistry they all have.

The Jeremy Renner bit.

So funny. I'm dying.

Watching it now in 4k. Fuck, Clarkson looks rough.

I have beer. More beer. Chips and beer.

I think it's subframe.

It's my next car. It's going to replace the Silveradoe. In other news, the Mini is back at the :dillerman: for the clunk. Made the noise three times on the 4 mile drive to the dealer. On a 8 mile drive with a tech, it made the noise very faintly just once. It's staying overnight and we'all see what...

Dammit. A :manuel: AWD in orange would be an epic all-arounder. It's my next car. It's going to replace the Silveradoe. In other news, the Mini is back at the :dillerman: for the clunk.

Or Toyota's.

Bike shop just called me back. They pulled the bike from inventory and it was mis-labled. Frame is a Small, not a Large. I have a Black and Orange 2017 model coming in it's place. Same price, but will take a week to ship from Spain. Cassette upgraded to XT 11-46, cranks upgraded to XT M8000-B1 32t,...

The new bike will be here in 7-10 days. You're welcome to come and take it for a test ride with us, I've probably got some old flat pedals I can throw on it if you need them.
