Bikes. Parts. Chaos.

All the other Surlies are down in the safe room tinkering with revolutionary new products designed to empty your wallets with an iPhone-esque fervor, so all you get today is Skip. But you love that, don't you?

Last weekend was the innagural Pugsley World Championships held in my town of residence. It was lots and lots of fun. I marshalled some spots on the 26 mile course with my trusty 3.5 year old offspring sidekick and it was fun to watch folks turn themselves into frosty shells of humanity for our entertainment. Also, the burgers at the Fireman Inn were tasty.

In other news, Jim Thill runs a bicycle retail endeavor in South Minneapolis known as Hiawatha Cyclery. If you know Jim then you are privy to the fact that he is not at all dumb. Witness his latest piece on gas prices and whatnot. You should also probably buy one of these:

That's it from my end folks. Try not to be jerks to each other this weekend.
