Any of you heard of Spcarbon Bicycles New York? A tri friend of mine itching for a proper road bike asked if I knew anything of them. Appreciate any input here.
Generic ebay taiwan/chinese open mold carbon (or aluminum) frames with decals stuck on them.
My brother is looking for a sublet in Brooklyn this January; Slope or Cobble Hill or W-berg. Hit me offline if you know of anything.
Is Kings County big enough for the two of you?

Weird request - does anyone have a kit that's shredded up good from a crash? This is for an exercise at my acting studio where we have to play a scene with an injury that we've really had, so trying to recreate a bad crash.

What, you're not a method actor?

Don't get excited - this is just a test

I feel a moral and ethical obligation to write this post.  I like and respect every member of this club.   It is for this reason that I am scribing this.  Before any of you commit to arduous trainging programs or buy expensive aero wheels, you should be forewarned, next year is my year.  I WILL BE BREAKING LEGS AND CRUSHING DREAMS ALL SEASON LONG !  It would be neither humane nor sporting of me to keep this information to myself.  So buy your power meters and aero wheels.  Hire your coaches and ride your computrainers.  Just be mindful of the fact that you will be riding for 2nd place in any race I'm in. 

Respectfully,

     Yack-Fu 


be careful. If you do too well, you might have to upgrade.
the caveat being, "any race I'm in".  Don't worry Perls...I'll get my upgrade!
Showing excellent spirit Yacks! I will return to Brooklyn for a visit after training and racing in Oregon for 6 months, we can go Skeletor-to-Skeletor!
I love it.  The gauntlet throwing begins and it's not even NOVEMBER!

The question is, "who will be your cornering sensei?"
Yacks, destroyer of dreams:

Jules as long as I have straight run in to the finish, all is good. I have been working to 'erectifying' my droopy handling skills. :)

"Props for second, chief."

The only race you're going to win is to the donut shop.  And as far as upgrades, unless you plan on installing shag carpet on your dash, I don't see any upgrades in your future.
Thank be to John! I love this show... WDC should watch these fellows to up his impersonation game a notch or two.

Whitey...2nd in the sprint competition...but WORLD CHAMPION in the hair competition...don't pretend like you are not impressed!  If you try and hold my wheel on the climb next year...we will all be seeing more of your "Ohh Face".
