SD Double Flats


SD made an appearance at the club ride today, but his stealth dork equipped bike wasn't underneath him. Instead, he chose to sandbag the leisure ride on his retro wheels - a sweet 1994 Peugeot Success road bike. Unfortunately, he suffered two flats and had to bail early. It was a pity, as I enjoy riding with SD when he has a 53 tooth big ring - and just eight cogs to choose from in the back. He was like a fish out of water; no spin in his SD legs to drop me. Damn double flat!

In other news, SD #2 made it out to the ride as well, and, true to stealth dork form, was spinning up a storm at the front of the group. What a stealth antagonist. Why couldn't he have fallen victim to a double flat? Injustice!

--readership up, subscription still free (GST not included)--

Wow!  10 people (so say the number of votes registered on the stealth dork polls on the right side of this screen at this date and time) have read my homage to Stealth Dork, and by accidental discovery, Stealth Dork #2.  We're not even one week into this and we're already 10 readers ahead of projections.  A big thank you to you, the readers (non stealth dork GF, Mom, Dad, my brother and my six other non stealth dork relatives) for stopping by.  

To celebrate this, I pledge to you that I will make every Wednesday "Give SD(s) Some Love" day. Yup, every Wednesday I will grit my teeth and (try to) post something positive and supportive (ohhh that hurt just typing that) of the compact crank revolution.  Stay tuned for the first "Give a Dorkwad Some Love" day -- its not Wednesday yet, so I can be mean!

Oh, almost forgot the SD #1 and #2 update:  Went for an easy spin tonight with the crew (a stealth dork might be inclined to call it a "taking it ease" kinda spin) sans #1 and #2.  Maybe they get together on Monday night and ride their stealth dork equipped tandem?
