Jszat's Group- full (Page 11)

Well, aren't we a rockin' group...

Bought myself an extremely early (read-7 months) 30th birthday present...wanna see??

Ta-da!  I couldn't pass up the sale Javelin was having.  I spoke with someone who used to sell Javelins, and he said this was easily a $1800-2000 bike...and I got it for the amazing price of $829 ($30 was shipping).  Campy components, a mix of Centaur and Veloce.  They have another tri bike that's all Veloce, but I went with the better model (who wouldn't at that price!).  From the picture, it looks black and yellow...I'm having a hard time differentiating the dark color...so I'll need some suggestions on a cool name for it.  (Maybe I'll call it Aslan...since the model name is so close to Narnia...)

JChristoff - 2008-03-11 1:39 PM My birthday is on March 15 so if you want to get me one too I would be cool with that Congrats on the new bike. Update for me: I feel like hell... I think I got a cold. Suck.

Heh...sorry...

Feel better.

Nice work man!  Sorry I have been a stranger here but lots on my plate, including not being at the job I despised with lots of free time  

ultrahip_00 - 2008-04-07 1:06 PM bahh!!! i just went to the doctor and now i have strep throat i was just getting my working out ramped up again, and feeling great. its probably from the rec center -- it is a germ infestation hub. well, i'll be on the couch for the next few days, trying to feel better

Dude...strep throat SUCKS!!  I've only had it once (and one other time I thought I had it turned out to be Mono...THAT was fun), and I lost 12 lbs in 2 days because I couldn't eat or drink.  I remember it taking me a whole day to eat one 6 inch sub.  Feel better and get the rest your body is probably pulling for.

Don't know if you all saw Jszat's blog...our illustrious leader has a new job that's gonna limit his BT time.  Granted, this hasn't been an overly active thread, but just thought I'd point it out for anyone who may have missed it (do you like be back as one of us working schlubs, Joe?)

....11 pages, pffftt, we're up to 23! Get that leader of yours off his dead a$$, er donkey....

Dude...stay in your own group!!!    Otherwise I'll let the air out of your tires...

hey everybody!!!! 

excellent job on signing up for that half j!!  i know after i signed up for IMMOO i felt totally different, like now i had a purpose for all the training..................kinda like a do or die type of thingy!

did everyone see that the magster totally kicked some booty down in florida on a 5K?  eeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwesome job by a great donkey!!

and yes force, i agree with maggy when she says stay in your own thread..................or else!!!

how is everyone else doing?  are all the injuries/illnesses getting better?

hope everyone has a great day today and has fun doing all the training!!!

I took Daisy out for her first ride outside today...no major mishaps and evidently I was rather entertaining in the sounds I make (I can sound like a muppet sometimes).  My neck is incredibly sore.   Had to swap out the stock saddle as it caused some major pain, and the new saddle is pretty comfy.

Other then that, going through some transitions in life...contemplating changing my job.  I'm not particularly happy in my current position.  I like the company, don't care for the people I work with at the outsource.  It's hard to deal with managing people that don't like the company they work for, yet don't seem to have the gumption to get off their azzes and find a different company.  Found out that I could make pretty close to about what I making now, working remotely, from home, with much less stress and less money going out (with current gas prices, I'm going to be spending about $500/month on gas.)
