I ordered up some Dangerboys yesterday. They were like $10 more than the stock/replacements so what the hell. I've just never replaced a hydro lever and my destructions that came with the avids don't help a lot. I'm sure I'll figure it out...eventualy. They should be here saturday and if not it will be Tuesday I guess.
There's no riding for me this weekend. The no rear brake thing aside, my bestest good friend is in town for the weekend and he and his girlfriend don't ride much anymore so we'll be doing sumtin else I guess. He's a bastard...
I'm down for the Struggle for sure and Hank and I are brewing something up for next weekend. I'm free both days next weekend and will be looking to hurt myself.
Enjoy the weather folks.
