OK, so my bud at work's wife's grandpa just got into a car accident, so they're headed out to see him instead of going to the GP this weekend. Anyone interested in picking these up today? I can bring them to the Blue Fin tonight too. I have Sunday grandstand seats I will throw in to sweeten the...

Any of you cats and kitties starting to play with Avalon? I'm having a biatch of a time on a demo project and am looking for good resources to help guide me down this evil, evil path ...

The closet-cleaning continues: I wore these Supertechs for just a dozen days or so before deciding to replace them with Vertigo Corsas (which are also for sale). They are in very good condition. The only blemishes are some minor scuffs on the inside ankle area, and on the metal heel plates. They...

It's time to clear out some gear from the closet, so my beloved Vertigo Corsas are out the door. Why sell such beloved boots? Note that they're size 47. I wear a 48. It was close enough to get by, but my last trackday convinced me it's time to treat my feet a little better, so I'm rectifying...

Apparently it's another heavy enforcement day on the 17 today, comrades. Watch your speeds. :thumbup

What's up ya'll ... I'm in B group for K@TT's day at Buttonwillow, 10/15 and am looking for the folks who have B- slots on 10/16 and were looking to ride 10/15 instead. I know there were a few of you, so speak up! :D Work obligations are going to make leaving on time for the 10/15 day a royal...

"WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Chief Justice William Rehnquist, who helped shift the U.S. Supreme Court toward a more conservative ideology and strongly supported states' rights during his three decades on the bench, has died." http://www.cnn.com/2005/LAW/09/03/rehnquist.obit/index.html

Iron Chef is on, my bike's prepped for the track, and Valgar is slathering himself with salmon, so I'm rightfully inspired to bring the topic of the mighty omelet to the minds of the Kitchen Sink. Rich in subtleties, the omelet is a dish as varied as its chefs. Friends, let us rejoice in its...

Just got back from UKTech1 and Dangermouse's shop, Evolution Suspension, for a fork and lower triple install (forks I've done several times, but I don't have a good way to take off that lower triple, damnit!) and some other little bits of love. Having met Robert and Jane before, I felt good...

I've been sitting on my Helimot writeup for a bit to get used to the suit and give it a true shake at the track. Result? I can't say enough good things about the fantastic work Helmut and his staff did. I went with a G23 two-piece with pockets, chest perf, knee velcro, and kevlar inserts. The...

Anyone else headed down? CLASS veterans with tips for a first-timer to their format or things to think about beforehand? (I've done nine days at the track, six with either the K@TT Novice School or CSS.) I'm thinking of picking up a rental van for the day and would have an open spot if someone...

Anyone else watch the Shuttle launch this morning? The view from the new camera on the external fuel tank was awesome, especially when it separated from Discovery a few minutes ago. Beautiful! Watching the flight brought me back to watching STS-1, the first flight with Columbia, take off as a...

Rock Bottom OG's, what's up? Everyone is welcome to show on up at the RBB in the Campbell Pruneyard next Thursday, May 26. Call it ... 6pm until whenever. The weather's gonna be nice. The patio's ready to be filled. The beer will be there. The sugar packets are ready to be thrown with a...

The porcelain throne is a sacred place and, for Elvis, the final place. It is a sanctuary for peace, reflection, and expulsion. In these harried modern times, it is one of the last bastions of tranquility. So, what are your favorite pasttimes whilst cranking out a poo? "Masturbation" is assumed...
