Burnaby Pics

Ryan McKenzie: The fanciest of pants. I bet Lindstrom is jealous.

This is never going to be the same, but rumor has it that Tiemeyer can weld in a new seatstay. If not, then I've just gotten myself the most badass commuter frame around.

Hey Timmer, can you fix this trispoke? It's only got 3 rides on it.

Or maybe this blade. It's also hosed.

The damage done. That disc is never going to be the same either.

My elbow, as it looks now. I found out this afternoon that it isn't broken (good) but that the doctors won't drain all the mystery fluid (bad).

Hed?

I thought you were sponsored by Cane Creek? What a shame that there is this ambiguity now.

Sorry Rookie, those weren't my wheels. Those were from the poor guy whole piled into my bike as it slid along behind me. The Cane Creek wheels survived admirably, considering how toasted my frame is.

You are one tough mother. No way could I have taken the pound you have taken this week.

Good luck in Patagonia.

I think elbow pads might be in order for a while.

Keep the rubber side down and brains before butt.

Hey,

Great survival skills. Fancy Pants tells me you were testing the wheels pretty well and I think he even lost a front spoke to someone's rear locknut. Says it was rideable still even with only 17 spokes. I'm glad the wheels are holding up...ride them hard and keep the feedback coming. We are glad to have them out there getting real world testing.

Rest up and keep in touch.
