tarini unveiling

damn its been about a week since i posted last. can't believe how quickly time goes. basically i took tarini into work last wednesday to show the fellow bikers. i took a few images very quickly during lunch whilst waiting for the food, and since then i have been spamming pretty much everything i can with the bike. i did a few photoshop massages to the images one night, i also had a few images of the bike whist riding it to the station from my N73. the original images are shit but with the photoshop doctor brought in they are looking nicer now.
it is quiet amazing how good the bike looks with a little bit of work with the doctor. i love the moss on the ground under the image so the second time i brought the NEF's into photoshop i played more with bringing them out. they highlight the green really well
so here is the combo of shots





the weather is still shit. raining all the time so i am getting very frustrated with hugo. i have to get the bastard on the road so i can get to the station. i have now been about 4 bike stores looking for bloody hub spacers. i have only got 4 x 5mm ones so far and a set of shit BMX wheels for the trouble.
it is funny to judge a bike store on its hub spacers availability but is also such a good test of who gives a shit, who knows there shit, and who has attitude to book. clarence street cycles were great. the guy spent about 10 minutes looking for some and couldn't find any but was seriously apologetic. city bike depot i rang, they said they had some, i walked for 35 minutes, and no f^#%ken luck, they just sent me to clarence street, and the guy had a real attitude. the bike store at castle hill industrial area were nice but only offered me to shitty BMX rims that need to be trashed with spacers on them.
i think now my best bet is to go to the serious LBS at springwood. i know the guy has a draw full of them, he has shown me, so that is the plan now.
i am still concerned about the redishing of the wheel. i have a couple of options i can either take it and have it done, or possibly sell some more shit and buy some dedicated track wheel set. the more i think about it the more i think that may be the best option. would be simple and straight to the point.
who knows!
