cottoneyes - 2010-10-10 9:42 PM Might be a bit distracted over the next few days as well, took out a patent last year and have been working on getting a business up and going around it.  Saw someone else selling my product on the weekend so now trying to talk to them and get it resolved without some lawyers getting involved.  But thinking I better start talking to some lawyers now though just in case.


That's terrible, hopefully you get it resolved quickly and easily.

Post 400!

Didn't you hit 300 like 2 days ago?
You are the new posting queen.
*bowing*
We're not worthy,
we're not worthy. 


Laughing Just helping out Team BT! After this challenge my posting will likely be returning to normal so I figure I might as well work the posts while I have the opportunity. Keeps me busy these days in between job hunting and sewing. I can't wait to get back to work!!!

pdbman - 2010-10-10 7:03 PM 15 pages and over 300 posts ahead of the Ghoulies. Won't they be surprised when they log on tomorrow. Now all we have to do is step it up on the actual challenge.


Laughing yes, must concentrate more on training!


I'm behind at the moment, but building throughout the month so should make it.  Althought the battle between the bed and some exercise this morning saw the bed win, I hate the start of Daylight savings


Our daylight savings got moved to next month... Damn North America screwing things up and making life difficult for everyone. I would hate to be one of the professionals having to deal with international meetings when the world's clocks shift and ours don't.

Good morning and happy Monday, Rulers of the Ghoulies!
I'm mega-sore after loads of yardwork this weekend, so I'll be taking the day off.  But lots of workouts on tap for this week!  The Ghoulies are getting nervous... keep up the great work!

QueenZipp - 2010-10-08 9:49 PM What are the components?  I saw the Schimano rear derailleur but nothing on the other components.


I have no idea, I don't know the first thing about bikes. Let me see if I can find another link with more info.


Overall reviews on the bike weren't all that great.  A bike needs to be able to take a LOT of riding
and not be a demanding piece of equipment other than routine maintenance and cleaning.  Much like a car.


Here's the thing--in the $350 range, that's about the best it gets.  It's not bad, for that. The other thing is I have a feeling
it's not going to get ridden like YOU ride your bikes (do any bikes?)

HOWEVER ... if you anticipate falling in love with triathlon, or riding more than say a few hours a week, you are probably
better off saving your ducats for a better bike. What are you riding now?


A rusty 7 year old mountain bike... Cool

That's fresh out of the box compared to mine. My mtn bike is about 15 yrs old. I'm glad I splurged on it then or there is
no way it would have lasted this long if I had bought a cheap one, which means I wouldn't be doing any tri's.


Are you still using a mtn bike? How long have you been tri'ing with it for?

Post 400!


Congrats!!!

Those pretty little pink stars are my favorite and 400 is the only time you get an unadulterated row of them. It's a special time; enjoy it!


It is nice, but I wouldn't mind a nice rainbow of stars. I plan to stick around BT for a long time, so one day I will have lots too. I need BT! None of my friends are into tri or any of swim, bike, run. Most of them aren't active. I'm working on it but haven't brought anyone over to the tri side yet.
It'll happen. Keep working on developing your dark powers here. MUAH HA HA HA

This was to be my first year triing, but it hasn't gone well. I got sick, had family things come up, or had to go out of town every time I put a tri on my calendar. My big running race went well, but no tri's. I'm looking for my first tri in April and am determined to see it through this time.

Lots of distractions today. I'm thinking maybe I should have worked from home. We have a guy visiting from Arizona. He's a nice guy and all but he loves to talk. He's more of a distraction from work than BT is. I don't think I've had 10 minutes peace in the last 90 minutes.
