blackmans phffft fizza


happy birthday aidan. i love my boy(s)...

pretty unhappy. i rang blackmans today to set up a time to meet up with "dougo" but unfortunately he was completely not interested what so ever in discussing anything to do with the website. i did question him about a few odd bits and piece but it was seriously a no-go situation. i think it is such a shame. not only for me but for them as well.
he explained to me that they were paying monthly for the site. i questioned the fact they didn't have any of the current stock in store on the site and his response was "scott didn't provide us with any details". i responded saying all the information was readily available online but it just drew a blank. so i won't be getting any new bike(s). really disappointed.

scottie went up to the real LBS on saturday for the front derailleur to be fixed / realigned. it cost $10 and when i got it back home it took him for a quick spin. seemed as though it wasn't rubbing but it also wasn't moving into the top chain ring with ease either. again... disappointment.

the white peugeot sold today to a guy with one piece of feedback and that being negative. i also didn't break the $200 mark... disappointment again.
this bastard better pay / pickup within a week. i have 3 roadies i am keen as to buy this week but ... i bet i will be disappointed.

ffs - bad week for bikes

to quill and beyond


tarini and i departed at around 10.15 this morning. he needs the stem taken out @ a place that has more than around 25 tools. i have also spoken to them about the chainline. i know it is out and we are going to work on what is the best way to sort that issue out. does anyone know someone with a buffing wheel? i really need to hit the 80 up badly for that real shein .... doh i forgot, no one reads this blog.

the docket is quiet funny.
no it isn't a "blue - fixed Road Bike" it is a "blue - Broken fixed gear Road Bike"
NOTE: security black bar created in photoshop. every docket requires some kind of digital manipulation to improve is validity if viewed on the internet.

blog newz. i am going to try and create a full custom blog using moveable type. if it all goes to play you will see it. if not... you won't lol.
