My Sigma computer up and died for no damn good reason. I went back to the shop and Ben gave me a new Cateye Strada. Purty. And Wesley the mechanic heard about my chainsuck woes and shortened the chain by 2 links.

It worked. Less chain slap and no more suck.

Meanwhile, the Cube frames at Ben's shop gave me an idea.










Meanwhile, colours orange and purple have been on my mind.





And I got my dad to buy me a mini torch for Gina's survival kit.




In other news, I slapped on the cranks that my friend Victor gave me after I told him my chainrings were killing me.




I had to buy a new front dee (long overdue) and new 8-speed cassette (tried to make do but the chain kept skipping on cog 4).

But its worth it. Think I was fast before?



48 to 11 cog chain combo. I shaved the commute to work time by 2 minutes.




When I shift my chain onto the Big Ring, I mentally tell myself, time to hit the Turbo. Let the fans blow, baby, blow.
