i'm gonna need to dig the instructions out on how to remove the cassette from the broken wheel...not very manly,instructions are for girls and lady-boys! but it is a 300 dollar cassette,probably a good idea to not fuck it up

That’s an expensive cassette, but we know you’re not talking about audio gear
and it's not even the most expensive one available! the derailleur plus the fancy cage and pulleys cost 800 bucks!
good news on the wheel/spokes though...looks like i can just have the shop order the replacement spokes and relace it for me rather than ship it off...rim looks undamaged,hub as well,so just around a dozen vastly overpriced spokes and some special spoke prep stuff...so under 200 to fix it
It’s a heck of a habit!
I’m on book 4 it’s turned into quite a space opera …
a local guy just got a custom built titanium frame bike that cost 15 grand...and it looks like it was put together by a committee that wasn't talking to one another....at least my bikes look unified and designed
kim stanley robinson's mars trilogy next....then get alastair reynold's revelation space next
I’m on it
the mars trilogy are all meaty books,should keep you busy for a while
U you made built The nicest bikes in the known universe.. imagine if you had an unlimited budget
This set has also been intriguing to me. It’s going to be purchased. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Three-Body_Problem_(novel) The Three-Body Problem (Chinese: 三体; lit. 'Three-Body') is a science fiction novel written by the Chinese writer Liu Cixin. It is the first novel of the Remembrance of Earth's Past (Chinese: 地球往事) trilogy, but the whole series is often referred to as Three-Body.[1] The trilogy's second and third novels are The Dark Forest and Death's End, respectively. The series portrays a fictional past, present and future where, in the first book, Earth encounters an alien civilization in a nearby star systemthat consists of three sun-like stars orbiting each other in an unstable system, an example of the three-body problem in orbital mechanics - hence the title.
i would get a custom built titanium full suspension frame made...but otherwise i would stick with the parts i've been using,not the most expensive around,but solid reliable parts
mathematicians recently came up with thousands of solutions to the three body problem...a very tricky set of calculations
mornin campers...another day,another trip to the grow store...almost out of cal/mag! probably shouldn't be doing shots of it,but then again my coat is thick and glossy and i can play fetch for hours! 
looks like rain this week,and lower temps...fingers crossed it's finally time to shut the coolers down...
looking like we might get some real rain tomorrow...at least for here...a half inch can cause flooding in low lying areas here,especially since the ground is bone dry...
We had a pretty good killing freeze this morning.
27 when I got up and super foggy to boot.

still too hot for late october here...coming up on typical first frost day,but i have a feeling it will be late this year
cold front coming in. no frost yet, but it won't be too long now. fingers got chilly working this morning. feeling the need to be up in the mountains carrying my longbow...
it's almost time to be climbing up mountains on a bike here
