Well Mr. Garrisons ticker says under 30 days now. Its getting close....damn close. My bike is 90% done, talked to TBL yesterday they bled the brakes....they needed it. And apparently I am not a bike mechanic, the steerer tube was not long enough so they took a spacer or 2 out it was making a ticking noise according to the shop? I never noticed it. I am picking it up weekend afternext. A few people think I has a sub 11 at the SM in me....yea kinda hard for me to see that we shall see come labor day.
This weekend Mr. Bloomquest and I are doing an Arlington Hills ride. Lots of short up and down. Should be fun.
Later
At our shop, when we get the frame and start the switch over of parts, its a 1 day project unless some parts won't switch. They've got the new frame, are switching parts and its still going to be a week?
ReplyDeleteNow as for the race, I say you choke or do something stupid like crash and completely bend a rotor into a caliper.
I predict 13:45 for ya.
Bring your lights!!!!
don't assume his bike is the only think they are working on. last time i was in there the wait list for a build was 10 days.
ReplyDeleteThanks Tommy 11:30 is my goal. They have a 2 week wait once the frame arrives. It'll be done in time.....
ReplyDeleteIf I crash I'll set a chinese booby-trap for you Tommy....bring it.
I'm not saying his bike is all they have to work on,but I don't understand how you start working on a bike, put it up, than start working again.
ReplyDelete......
Chris I'm so psyched about making up for last year, I'm going to go all out and bonk 40 miles in....but that 1st 40 is going to be a sub-10 pace :)
Do it Tommy, thats James he needs a blog.
ReplyDeleteAs far as them having a 2 week lead time, they are a the big shop in NOVA for cyclist for getting stuff done in house. 2 weeks is a shit ton better then last time. I will have my bike in my grubby hands come Friday hopefully. Hope I can kick this I don't want to ride my fucking bike attitude. Ridden pretty much every weekend since April....ugh.
