Sick Day

I woke up feeling better than I've felt in days, but since I'm pretty caught up at work and in need of some rest to try to put the naile in this cold's coffin I figured "what the f*ck", take a sick day.

I had no plans to do anything except sleep, look at (bike) porn, watch the replay of Flanders on Versus and eat. Damn Frank's Red Hot in Chicken soup ROCKS!

I also made some bike rags out of these:

What the hell would I wear if I didn't get race t shirts?

Not all of these are headed to the rag pile, but most. A couple I've never even worn, since refuse to wear a t shirt of a race that sucked for me. Why do I want to relive the bad memories every time I look down?

On the other hand, some of them I CAN'T throw away some because the memories are too good. Then of course you have the bad ass wicking t shirts from Mohican and the Wilderness 101. These Ts are too well made and contain too many good memories to throw a way.

I hate to throw away my T shirts from Granny Gear races due to the shear amount of money that I forked over for them. I mean their value would be close to $1,000, ha! But alas, it's time.

Some of the bike porn I saw today in addition to the Fisher Carbon 29er was the 2007 Bell's Brewing / Quiring Cycles team frames. This frame is HOT. Hand made by Scott Quiring, light weight 29er with a sweet paint job that matches the team kit and the Bell's Oberon beer lable.

Check out these images pulled from the Quiring site:
