And now for something completely different (for this forum anyway) - I managed to fill 2 8GB cards at the Herald-Sun tour yesterday. Thought I'd share some shots.

You'd be forgiven for thinking nothing happened off-track:

Couple of shots of the women I found. There's a couple more but have to figure out which are usable.

And lastly:





It's all good to go into the corners hard:

But if you're going to do so, you need to make sure you keep the rubber side down.

Some real nice bikes in there, makes me want to go out and splurge on a specialized.

Get this, it is actually cheaper (markedly) to buy them in .au and then fly it back to SF, even though they are manufactured locally in California. So I am going to do this if the dollar holds out in a few weeks. :)

whaaa...??

Last week basically all wholesales upped their prices by 20-25% on everything. We were just talking about getting me onto a level 2 sponsorship deal which would involve a Giant XTC Advance SL, when all of a sudden the price of the bike went up from 3999 to 4999 (we were just going to strip it and use the frame with my current components).

Not sure how other brands might be cheaper with the exchange rate :?

mmm 40D ftw.

Well some prick just stole my allez elite, so I am in the market again (sigh).

I'm talking about buying stock already in Australia, anything fresh then yeah, expensive :(

it looks like your frame is about 2500 US retail?

is anybody on dialup still?

Some people may be capped? But only noobs who can't hold off until the end of the month

That's not all they blow embarrassingly early.

Sorry I just had to.

i heard that there's some nasal spray for this that might help them.

maybe you should just complain that everyone who watches sport is gay

or pedos for some gymnastics

or gay again for watching some other sport like rugby (which is gay)

maybe even cricket, the moste boring of all sports
