Brrrrr Its Cold in the Southeast

It is unseasonably cold here. Too cold for me to ride tonight. Yeah I know, I am a big sissy, but I do not like the cold.
I ordered a new cog for the Niner and added a sticker pack so that when people see the FJC, toolbox or anything else I decide to emblazen with the sticky goodies they know my affiliation. As if it matters, but I want them to "know dammit". I am anxious to try out the Cogalicious Cog I hope it is so delicious that I puke while climbing.


Oh yeah! Consumerism, I don't "need" one but I gotta "have" one. Debuted at Interbike this year, the Chris King Bottom Bracket comes in the right color green to match my other King components on the Niner. Right now on the Niner I am running a Truvative Stlyo for which the BB will not be available until spring, which in the Chris King production time span means some spring that maybe light years away. Oh well, I guess I might just do my part to single handedly turn our nations economy around and buy a King BB that does not work with my current set up, thereby forcing me to buy a new SS Crankset just for the Bling of it. I need to get busier working or riding more or both, or this delima will drive me insane. I got all winter to get worked up to an ulcer over decisions on tires, stems, bars, brakes and drivetrain bits. It is going to be a long winter.

Working on some riding plans for the weekend, more on that manana. (I wish I had one of those squiggly things that goes above the "n" in Spanish on my keyboard)
