Names Nick.
Me on my bike [Halloween]:

i don't know if they match to names on here. why don't we have a thread where everyone posts a picture of them/their bike, so when out on the street people like me (who are getting into cycling but haven't come to any of the events posted on here yet) can recognize ya and wave.
and of course ive now realized i don't have any pictures of me or my bikes on this computer... oops.
Names Nick.

My bike:
not my bike, but i like the picture
wait, thedutchtouch, aren't you supposed to post a picture of yourself too?
I'll only post a picture if Nick promises to plug the ends of those bullhorns.
Me on day 3 of the Eastern PA 1000K.
Here I am wondering why, exactly, I've taken up bike racing:

You're more likely to see me on my commuter, though--a lime green Novara Fusion.
Oh man, you're talking about me aren't you....
I am way too hip for plugs- I'm even too hip for tape.
I am SO hip that my fixed gear bike has a cotter crank!
I hear ShelBroCo Bayonetz are nice for bar ends.
It's polite to plug those bullhorns, since they're more likely to take a core sample of a pedestrian rather than yourself, especially if you ride near Pitt where people suicidally dive into your path. Throw in wine corks if nothing else.
Another way people who are interested in meeting other cyclists can do so is to checkout Meetup.com - I do a lot of traveling so I use this website to meet new people all the time, and it looks like there are a bunch of different kinds of bike-related groups, too.
I know, I know... They are plugged.
And I am definitely WAYYY too hip for wine corks.
what happened to posting pictures?
Posting pictures isn't hip enough. I'll get one up soon. Nick, do you have a helmet?
Helmet.... eh, no...
It's been one of those things I know I should have, but keep forgetting about/putting off. I am ordering some stuff form Nashbar right now, maybe i'll add a helmet to my order.
the person who started this still hasn't posted a pic. maybe that's why only a few posted pics of themselves, it's making us paranoid
I know they're already plugged, but I never get tired of this story:
Plus Oscar Swan will yell at you... "Just go to Kraynick's! You can get plugs for a nickel!"
i'd say either plug them or sharpen them
