I like chemical guys. I'll look into their starter kit.
I can't wait to try that Megs endurance gel, plus it was only $7.97 at Wally World.
I was organizing the garage last night after mowing the lawn and replacing the fuse, and I noticed I have a lot of Megs' products.

I can't take this generation anymore......
I just heard the fucking stupidest song on the radio. I don't even know the name of it. I can't I need to get XM in the Accord.
It's either that or I'm just really bored at work right now.

Since we on bikes I just bought the 2015 Trek Madone 4 series carbon frame in a 58cm. Going to New York but will drive down to SD and pick it up Thursday when I get back. Then I can start building my bike again.
it's been so long

Lucky ass.

Yeah it was a great price. Too good to pass up. It was 300 bucks cheaper than my last frame which was used and two years old.

Thanks Johnny...
busy fuckin day yesterday...I'll be updating my thread shortly.
Managed to get back out to the local mountain bike trails...I had a fall I'd been owed for not falling for like 3 years. Sore AF today...too high a gear going up a climb onto a bridge switchback, unclipped...left foot slid off bridge, and my fat ass followed...rolled/slid about 25 feet to the bottom of the hill, head narrowly missing a steel post they put in (for added excitement?). Anyway...felt good to remember not to be complacent cause it's somewhere I've never fallen before.
Good morning and happy Easter (to those that celebrate today). Forgot this weekend was Easter weekend. I'd like to do the lower intake runners, but not sure since time is limited. Going to the wife's family house today.

sorry to hear Kevin.Chad...I got the HIC on without visors...looks amazing. Funny enough, I agree on going OEM, but the HIC make me wanna try them...since my oems clear faded so badly...I kinda want to give them a shot for $50...and they're shaped like OEM too. Plus, no clips to deform the oem rubber door seals.
Because there's no clips the top of the visor is flat. I assume to give space to be adhered to the car. I don't like that curve/flat area... Plus they are out of stock and are preorder only. :/

Speaking of sad deaths...just pulled a 9' alligator off the side of I-95. Got hit by something pretty big. Poor guy...dragged him over to the water and said a few words...
Always makes me so sad that nobody stopped to scare him back into the water instead of just plowing through.
