Memorial Day Update

Well as Memorial day would be I got sick again, glad I wasn't registered for the Super D this weekend because I most Definitely would not have been able to ride. If none of you remember last year during Memorial Day weekend I ended up going to urgent care and found out I had mono, well this year I went to urgent care to find out I have Tonsillitis. Neither of which are/were fun. But Tonsillitis has its benefits, I mean with my tonsils gone I will have clearer airways which means I can breathe better while riding, but still not a good time. I ordered a ton of parts and about 500 dollars stands between me and a completed Genken. Mega Stoked!

May Update

Missed the April update but nothing too exciting happened, unless of course you count the acquiring of my Genken frame, some more parts and now me being single. But those aren't too exciting. Here are some photos of the parts I have gotten so far, and hopefully can have it completely built by the end of May, if not mid June should be the latest date.

Also have my chainguide but that isn't pictured.

March Update

Change of plans for the race bike. Goin with the Genken for now. 83mm BB and 150x12 rear is a challenge to deal with but it means I get to run those pimp new Shimano Saint cranks which I am cool with. Going to PSU full tim this spring and working should be bringing in as much cash as possible to fund my race machine.

February update!!!!!

In the past few months a few things have changed, I got a new job. But the most important to me is the addition of Gamut USA and X-Fusion Suspension bringing me in as a grassroots rider.

Gonna be running a X fusion Vengeance, Hilo, and hopefully a Vector rear shock, and from Gamut either Dual ring guide, or P30.

2011

New changes in 2011,
Had a slight struggle with school in fall so I will be home for the winter and spring term. On the plus side I will be working as well and that will give me the money to build my bike. Got 2 parts for Christmas, XT dynasys chain and ODI X-treme grips.

December

December update:

Semester is coming to an end, snow is on the ground and its super cold! I love it.

Cycling season will come fast and I'm stoked!

Part Collecting

Got a new part for my build today, 36t Race Face Single Ring in red. Will post a pic later but this thing is damn light.
