If I were you I’d take precaution.

Thanks. 58cm.

Thanks for the reflections. The bike shop owner basically says there is no getting Specialized to budge on which frame they send as a replacement, which is frustrating, and that they'll get my position replicated on the new bike pretty well. I suppose I'll give it a few rides, but if the...

Hope I'm doing this right: here's a picture that was sent to my wife of the new frame.

I have a dilemma regarding my bike that I thought I might get some advice about from the cyclists who follow this thread. I "raced" (C and D level) for the WFU club team in 07 and 08, but now I'm exclusively recreational. My bike was a 2005 Specialized Transitions Multi-Sport, which was the...

Yes, very loud.

Thunder and a lawn covered with snow in Greensboro (27455). Snowing pretty hard!

Love that he wore a Sugar Bowl hat. Not-so-subtle reminder.

Yeah, but of all the expressions to pick... It was clearly a reference to his ethnicity. ESPN made the right call. That was straight up racist.

If we're truly talking "rock," you're definitely correct. But for "rock and roll," piano is just as key. Think Jerry Lee Lewis, Little Richard, Fats Domino. You can do rock and roll with just piano/bass/drums. Perhaps the real dividing line is "when white people started liking it." That...

Keep reading... "Sam Phillips, then a fledgling in the record business, produced 'Rocket 88,' Brenston's debut waxing, in Memphis. The singer/saxist was backed by Ike Turner's Kings of Rhythm, an aggregation that Brenston had joined the previous year. Turner played piano on the tune; Willie...
