    it that one of the ones with the explosive batteries (like the ??magicshine?? or whatever I bought) ? Not a problem if you charge it at work, in a stainless steel box (just in case) I suppose...

    How do you like the mitts? Always been curious about using them. Your thoughts?

    They are nice. I have the NON-fleece lined model. Basically it is a giant neoprene cover over the grips/shifters. I took them out at 17 degrees with just a light mountain glove. My hands were nice and toasty. I like them.

    Tasty. Cucumber Mint reminds me of spearmint gum.

    Now I'm fly, super fly. by Tom L, on Flickr

    After much thought and consideration, I went with a traditional MTB instead of a fattie. I realized I'd have to drop another $500+ to get it where I wanted it to really be and then only with a compromise. Now I can start saving my pennies for a fattie. Like Mick says, "you don't always get what you want...you get what you need." And I'm super stoked, and if the quick little off road I did this morning is any indication, it's going to be a very fun summer.

    is this for use with that mech-hanger extender gizmo ?? keep us posted how it works, I've just swapped to a GS Ultegra rear mech, that'll cope (at a push) with a 32T cassette (it's rated for a 30T, which is what's on now, but I reckon that the 32T is only about 4mm larger radius than 30T (based on "chain-pivot centres" radius is 64.68mm cf 60.63mm) and as my rear jockey wheel is a good 12mm clear of the 30T (and the b-tension bolt isn't screwed all the way in at the moment) it'd probably be fine. However, something that'll lift everything an extra 2cm or so would mean an XT 11-36 would probably be featuring in my near future...

    (damn, I hate being old, fat, and weak!)

    Can't wait to give this a bash... I might have to find a bit of ballast to put on the handlebars to keep the front wheel down!

    Some sweet new carbon base bars for the upcoming TT season. New carbon aero extensions should be arriving in the next day or two.

    Question: is that tape Bontrager's answer to Lizard Skin and it's ilk? I love Lizard Skin, currently have the Specialized version on my rode bike, and while it feel ok it wraps like crap.

    Statement: It's just me, but that offset (non-centered) Garmin would drive me absolutely bug-nuts.

    Yes, the Super Tack Tape is similar to Lizard Skin. It may not be as thick as LS but it is tacky.

    Hmmm...maybe I should move the Garmin more to the right... >:)
