Ok, a bit late in the season for this one, true, but nevertheless Tongue  I'm gonna keep riding until I physically cannot handle the cold anymore Tongue  Anyone here do any cycling?  I just picked up a couple new bikes for a steal.

First is a kinda mix and match road bike, but it has all Shimano "Ultegra" components.  Used, but hardly so and in great shape.  Need to adjust the cassette shifting though.

Second is a decent entry level mountain bike.  Gonna have fun with this one.  Prolly gonna run out to one of the local courses tomorrow and mess about.

<+Karrde> welp, time to learn some basic patterning skills
<@Negate> 12121212121212121212
<@Negate> there is a simple pattern
<+Karrde> I changed my mind.  Gonna cosplay as a gay demon from hell and get negate raped instead XD
<+Caffeine`work> Karrde: Gay demon? Why would you need to cosplay just go as yourself
<+FlyingMongoose> Caffeine`work: Karrde would actually have to tone it down some.

I was like "You live in the Ponds, fucking walk", but then I realised you went to CONA. Winter is coming, so that 20 minute walk I do to MUN errday is making me want a car more.

If I'm really determined I can ride my bike in really cold weather. I bundle up like mad though. The hardest part about it is if I go somewhere and leave it out the lock becomes a big pain in the ass to unlock.

After 5+ years of talking about it, I finally got a brompton folder this year. Only 3-gears and intended for street, I do want to bike more.
