i'm riding my bike to class, right?
    #7685197 - 11/27/07 09:35 AM (16 years, 2 months ago)

and i'm in something of a hurry because class starts in 5 minutes, but not really racing. i turn onto the main street that runs through campus, taking the corner at a wide angle to avoid pedestrians and whatnot.

well, it's fall. and unfortunately, that means that there are piles of leaves about 3 feet wide at either side of the road. my wide angle took me right into the wet leaves and my bike decides it doesn't want to stay upright anylonger. *BAM* *SKIDRRRRRRRRRGH*.

fuck. i am surrounded by people and i just busted my ass. fuck. i have my headphones on, so i don't hear if anybody says anything. i just hop up, laugh it off in a feeble attempt to save face, and ride off.

but wait.. what's this? oh fuck.. my bike is riding funny. oh fuck, oh fuck. i look down to see the worst. my rim is bent so badly that as i ride, it periodically rubs against the frame. and my pedal is fucked up. god-fucking-damnit. my bike is my primary means of transportation. fuck, i do not want to spend all that money on a new rim. fuck.

also, i ripped my pants and skinned my knee all to hell. i'm so fucking cool.

Bend the rim back into shape...then it won't cost you a thing :wink:

You'll have to play around with the spoke tightness, but you can do it.

a pair of needle-nose vice grips will do the trick for tightening spokes. It will also help to straighten up the rim a bit once it has been at least semi straightened by hand. Keep in mind that over tightening will warp the rim and cause flat tires, so don't over do it.

Not as severe, but I remember in middle school I was running through the halls on what must have been a rainy day, and I was late for class. Coming on a sharp right I went right out and took a girl out with me. People all around. Asked if she was okay and got out of there. Man.. :\

like a week ago i was going to a night class and i was going on the same route as always but this time was different, the road wasnt lit this night.. all of a sudden, as im hauling ass down this hill, i see a sign and im headed straight at it!! so i quickly dodge it and go to the right. now all of a sudden i feel gravel under my bike! uh oh, i think, and start to slow down, all of a sudden i see a ditch 10 feet in front of me and it was way to late to stop so i end up flying over my handle bars into a bunch of rocks, ended up ripping my shirt, cutting my elbow and bruising the shit out of my left leg... when i went to class late everyone was staring at me like what the hell happend to you?!?! my bike got fucked.... the rear tire popped out of the socket and bent to shit and the front tire got bent as well, had to adjust the brakes and the spokes as mentioned above and its working like brand new now...

You need to get to a bike shop that has a "true-ing stand". It doesn't cost much to true-up a rim...unless it's super-fucked.

my buddy sold his car and became a bike courier.. one friday him and his buddies went out and got smashed after work, and he jumped on his bike and began pedaling home.  about a quarter of a mile before his house he eats shit going down a hill and snaps his collar bone.  for the longest time he swore he got hit by a car, it took him 2 weeks after the accident to finally come clean and admit the drunken defeat of his bicycle.  i still give him shit about it to this day.. :evil:

Truing your wheel shouldn't cost more than 15 dollars at any reputable shop. It'll be weaker than before, but save you alot of money compared with buying a new rim and building a fresh wheel.

Is this a quality, or el cheapo wheel?

Yeah, sucks.

Last year I went 15 or so mph down a hill, crossed the road, hit it diagonally, and missed where I thought the curb was. So after checking for cars, and while still in motion, I look to the curb, but it's too late. I diagonally hit it and go flying 10 for 15 feet and my elbow takes the entire fall on pavement. It was like a burn, cept deep, it'd heal and I'd have to 'stretch' the wound before it dried in the wrong position, otherwise it'd crack and kill.

Luckily onyl 1 person saw me. Must have been hilarious. Wasn't wearing a helmet and could have really gotten fucked up. I can't afford to go fast like that around pavement without a helmet anymore. Helmets are awesome. After falling in the woods and hitting my head on a rock and cracking my helmet I'm always gonna wear one in the woods at least.

The bent wheel really topped the story off, I had to laugh. That blows though. I hate not having my bike, walking can be one of the most boring things around...soooo boring

That reminds me of a high school situation i was in.  This fucking bitch was in my homeroom and I would always piss her off and she would always say "GROW UP!!!" so for the next 3-4 years everytime I saw her I would scream "GROW UP!!"  Never got old...those were the good ol days.

Just curious, what were those reasons?
He made music?
He smoked weed?
He stood up for what he believed in?
None of those things make someone cool in my book, sorry dude.

Go look at some of his well known quotes. Maybe then you'll realize.

Plus, his music is awesome.

Haha man I hate it when that happens. Most bike shops will only charge you $5 or so to true a wheel and put the tire back on straight. I would reccomend that over doing it yourself because the tools to do it properly are going to be far more expensive than a new wheel. As long as you have a quality wheel they can almost always be restored to funtioning condition. I bent my mountain bike wheel into a right angle one time and the guy at the bike shop made it like new for $5.

Once again, making awesome music doesn't make someone cool in my book.
Branford Marsalis makes amazing fucking music, better than anything Marley ever made in my opinion, but the dude is a huge douche bag.

Quote:

Herb is the healing of a nation, alcohol is the destruction.




Yeah, really fucking cool.

Quote:

When you smoke the herb, it reveals you to yourself.




I would beg to differ.

Most of his other quotes are pretty generic positive outlooks on life that would be nothing special if he wasn't famous.

I'm not saying he wasn't cool, but I don't know, I never knew the dude.

You're obviously homophobic, just look at your posts. I'm a scientist, by the way.

Most of his other quotes are pretty generic positive outlooks on life that would be nothing special if he wasn't famous.

I'm not saying he wasn't cool, but I don't know, I never knew the dude.




I didn't say Bob Marley was only cool because of his music. He is mainly cool in my book because he's a philosopher of sorts, I like the way he thinks, etc. Which is why I told you to go look at some of his quotes.

Because if you were a real scientist you would already have it published somewhere else.

Isn't that kinda what makes you a scientist?

i'll have to go to the bike shop sometime thursday to get my wheel trued or whatever. can't do it tomorrow because i have work right after class. i think i'm gonna try to bend it by hand enough so that i can at least make it to class and work, because otherwise i'll be way late to work and i can't have that.

and here's my pretty little trophy. it's really not that bad at all. i've definitely had worse when i was a young rambunctious child, but it's still pretty ugly.



i'm still trying to figure this camera out.. so having a bit of difficulty focusing on macro shots.

sho is. i took a shit-ton of great pics at thanksgiving with my family this year using it. it does really well with normal subjects like animals, people, actions, still shots. stuff like that. but i'm still having trouble with the macro mode. alas, i'll figure it out eventually.
