Surly Nation...................

This is my favorite bike.

Without a doubt the best bicycle I've ever owned.

When I die, I'm taking it with me.

Someday, I'd like to write this well. Neat story and way cool trip. And I think I want one of those Pugsleys. Thought about a nice new FS bike next year but the thought of all that maintainence with pivots, linkages and shocks is kinda off-putting. Sometimes simple is better.

Note to self; Don't put iced tea in a water bottle and leave what's left for several weeks because you'll have a water bottle with crusty spooge that moves.


This is just plain stupid. Bicycles are traffic.

Go F**k yourself Mr Cheney. My feelings exactly.

Now don't get me wrong, I wouldn't begrudge the victims of Katrina anything but how can the government spend money that fast? Wouldn't it be easier (and probably cheaper) just to write all the victims who lost homes, cars, etc a generous check to cover their losses and fill in the below sea level part of New Orleans???

Just a thought...................

Till later.
