hey there EJ, yeah long time no see. seems to be a whole different bunch of people now days making trouble on a wednesday. hectic work and real life commitments are a true pain and have a way of interfering with the mental enjoyment and socialising side of riding a bike. i've still been riding everyday no matter what though

until this happened;

sadly the hyobag died a terrible death in the form of being run over at a roundabout a few weeks back. yellow hi-viz vests are apparently invisible according to the blind fool who took me out. It didnt look like much but it was terminal. getting the swingarm bent and forks scratched up pushed it beyond repair. I couldnt face the thought of sitting my fat behind on another commuter that in the weekends i was treating like my mountainbike and threw it around like one too so i got on a fat lazy suzi at the end of last week to alter my riding position and pull my head in to remind me that it's a road im riding on and not a trail. the sports tourer seating position is working wonders sofar because it feels more like a real road bike than a trail bike but i really are missing those wide bars and laid back centre of gravity ahahahahah. hopefully i'll make it along a few more times now and again to these nights but the work schedule isnt calming by the look of things however tonight looks like a go though so see you all there

how about you - got a bike that works yet?
