Chris, you got it wrong. You did not injure your nose. You injured your neck. Call that guy on the side of the Marta bus.

Hope you guys are doing great, Crit, it was great to meet you this year! Hopefully sometime I can make it down finally for a meet!
For all of those interested, I charge extra for leg humping, but yes, it is an option.......

Argh! I still can't get a replacement tire for my 1st gen. They quit making the original azenis now. Not really wanting to mix tires. They aren't that great of a tire, but at least they were cheap. Not sure what I'm gonna do now.

Maybe I'll just get four Yokohama A048s......

Tim I'm not sure what you are looking for in a tire but there are some excellent deals on very good quality stock 13/185/70's if you look around. I'm real happy with the Kumhos I got last fall, very nicely performing tire with 80,000 mile tread guarantee for about $70 a tire, less than $300 for the set of four installed, with roadside protection and free rotations for life.

i agree to this. Suwanee is just too damn far away from me to go all the time, and to get out of school to get there takes too much time. after school, i just whip around there and im done.

chris, that sucks soo bad man. i know that feeling all too well.

Ho, Ho, Ho. That's funny.

Seriously folks, I think we should have all future OGTA meetings in my backyard. That way I don't need to drive home.

I'm in the process of trying to replace the tire that got trashed when I had the bolt break a while back. Been putting it off (stupid economy). Well, now they don't seem to make that specific tire anymore, and the other 3 have good life left. They have a new version, but it is relatively expensive ($140 each) and I don't want to mix the different compounds. Plus, the azenis just aren't worth that kind of money. They are decent, but not great. Better options available for less money. But, since I currently check clearance between the front tire and the front coilover with an envelope or piece of paper, I need to make sure the new tire isn't going to be any wider (or just get a spacer made).

So, it's just been frustrating, and I'm just venting . Placed my 4th order for some last night. We'll see if this place calls and says they are now out of stock too.
