PMS



Periodic Maintenance Schedule.

Most people do not realize that you actually have to maintain a bicycle.   Unless, of course, having the thing seize up when you're trying to get out of the way of some tool in a gigantic pickup doing 60 in a 45 zone is your idea of "spontaneous fun".

But then, most people's bicycles get about 20 miles and then spend the rest of their lives in the garage until they are disposed of at the "estate sale".

We're doing the Red Rock loop today!   Come on out and join us.   I'll be the guy with the Truckin' Deadhead t-shirt and Broncos ballcap.

I just thought of a new word!   The "Chriscycle".   It's the bicycle you get for Christmas in the hopes of working off some flab which gets ridden like, once and then finds a comfy place in the garage there to slowly dissolve into an oxide eucharist.   Okay.   More coffee.

I'd like to take this opportunity to be furst in congradulating you the murst on staying active and healthy instead of developing a huge purst.

PJ-1 with artificial sperm oil can help.

Oh yeah, I have ridden my bike in the last year a couple times. Once just to ride around the neighborhood and once to get some carburator cleaner when my POS car was fucking up.

When I have PMS I take Midol (tm) - it works well for cramps *and* the untimely headlong pitch over the handlebars.

Every now and then when your life gets complicated and the weasels start closing in, the only cure is to load up on heinous chemicals and then drive like a bastard from Hollywood to Las Vegas ... with the music at top volume and at least a pint of ether.

Dedicated to the other side of Las Vegas, namely; the sprawling, mad, incoherent underpinnings of the world's favorite destination.

That, and the occasional ranting about nothing in particular.
