    Healing Vibes Endo. Make sure to clean it really good, infections are becoming really common. Try Band-Aid advanced healing bandages, they accelerate healing and reduce scarring.

    Just riding along. The classic beginning to any cycling tale where something goes horribly wrong and the rider in question is usually not Just Riding Along i.e.

    "I was just riding along when the frame broke" (translation: I was hucking my cyclocross bike off a 4 footer to flat)

    "I was just riding along when the tires slipped out from under me" (translation: I was taking a hairpin off-camber right hander at 35mph)

    "I was just riding along and went over the bars" (translation: I was rolling on a flat front tire, hit a curb with my weight forward, panicked and grabbed the front brake)

    "I was just riding along and died" (translation: I was blasting down Mormon hill in the big ring and hit a tree after missing a turn :()

    etc...

    Laphroig 10yo and Redbrest 12y.o. are other good ones.

    Maybe there's a story behind the name "Endo"...

    Funny... as I was re-tweaking my handlebars I got on the phone with Hollywood and said something like, "it would be easier to explain what happened if a dog had destroyed my front wheel as I hit the ground."

    Thanks. I wonder if they make on big enough. Right now everything is in the 'draining' stage. Good times.

    The carpet (legs) is def. not matching the drapes (arms). If you gonna shave, shave it all, little buddy.

    I think you've been doing too many expresso shots @ Peet's and you lost your focus. You were probably in the midst of flashing a driver who just honked at you for hogging Mul. and odb you went. Easy there, big fella and be good to yourself.

    I'm shaving it all off for you Joe.. everything. Then I'm emailing you the pics.

    For those who don't know Joe, it would take a few chemical dips and the declaration of an E.P.A. Superfund Site to make him hairless. \\:D/

    Don't shave it ALL! I tried that once. Shaved everything (except the pbic hair) but paid special attention to any 'seat areas'. Big mistake #-o! Thought it'd help.

    Not that I have a lot of hair, but that hair that's there on your behind and nether regions, serves some kind of purpose, because when it's gone, it's not good![-X

    Good luck healing! Oh, and the next time that happens (as it did to me on Backbone last Thanksgiving), take a washcloth and absolutely scrub all the old dirt and blood out! It really helps speed up the healing and prevents infection (my girlfriend is a Physician Assistant at Kaiser).

    Considering how dry it's been lately, I think they should establish a new law about allowing people such as you and I being in the mountains together and within 30 feet of one another. That's a serious fire hazard and potentially a very hairy situation! :wave:
