Going on

Here is the BMC bike I am currently drooling over.
Probably will not mean anything to you, the reader, but ... would like a Campag Chorus 11sp 11-25 sprocket, with the 50/34 crankset on the bike. Simply, this means that going up hills would be a little easier, but at the sacrifice of higher end speed in the sprint. Which I do not do ...
The real killer(s) will be choosing a seat and wheels (although, I DID notice that Campag has rejigged their 3G laced wheelsets ... so spoiled for choice).
Saving time, methinks - could be $5500, or more, for this setup?
But what is money for if not to spend, hey???

In other news, I gave the Yukon a fairly comprehensive clean - took over an hour, cleaning chain, pulled off wheels, attacked cluster, so should be right for another bit (year?), unless we get another dust storm like the other week!!! :O

Also had young Christine contact me the other day, blast from past, but seems she is still lonely, heart broken, taken advantage of ... speaking of how things do not change?

Bought a new helmet yesterday, and then promptly got attacked/swooped by a magpie, so consequently ALREADY have a hole in the helmet!!!

Finally, have been spending a bit of time at Inspire Gallery, if only because they are friends of Hugh's (have I mentioned Hugh before?), and they do have a rather intersting little German beer, albeit at $10/bottle (but 500ml).

Anyway, off to Sardine Tin to sample their wares ... it is a 'tough' life, no???
