+1 the aquabats have been pissing me off recently. COME TO FUCKING VEGAS ALREADY, GUYS. FEEL THE WRATH OF MISSION CODENAME APPLESAUCE. That is honestly my least favorite song by them, every song is superior. @nikki They did come here very often. It was crazy, man. also @nikki Yeah many a show I had to pass in my high school days due to age restrictions. I think it kind of turned me off of the whole idea of concerts. +1 for streetlight, fuck everything else. I'm making it.

inspired by the thanksgiving potluck at lou's tonight.
i think it's been a pretty alright year, so let's post what we're thankful for (or not thankful for) in the spirit of thanksgiving!
i'm thankful for:.....
+bike polo +what used to be dodgeball +the bike co op!
+brian, for turning my rood biek into a ROAD BIKE. +craig and stephen for being badasses and being younger than me but still being a huge inspiration. +nathan/rabbi for so much general cycling advice. +art lou for being a certified welder +mark for being a fellow aquacadet +chris for smoking and always having a mature vibe
+everyone that showed up for my alleycat +everyone supporting the co op +new polo players
there's more, i'll add as i think of them.
good vibes for a great holiday people! even though the background of thanksgiving day is pretty dark in reality.... hahahaha.

+ Once again beta testing proboards version 5, lvfixed's new home in a couple of months. - Already found/reported 2 bugs - It's going to take longer than I thought before we can copy this forum onto v5 format. + Going to a wedding on Saturday as a groomsman. It's going to be the first wedding I've ever been to. + AMAZING weather in Las Vegas for the past couple weeks. Couldn't be better.

Tu madre. Translation: Di2 is great. Campy is not. Electric campy looks like even more of a fucked up boner than their other phallic-looking shifters. However it is kind of weird/stupid that they made an Ultegra di2.

The new shifters for esp look exactly the same.

It's not stupid for shimano to make ultegra di2. It's actually pretty smart to ring in the people who want electric in a bike around the $4000-4500 range. You don't typically see dura ace di2 below $6500. Yeah, ultegra di2 isn't supposed to shift as fast as it's older, more experienced brother. But it's also not really being marketed to racers that need those quick shifts.

It's $1000 more than an ultegra bike of the same range. A mid-level carbon bike with ultegra retails around $3000-3500. That's just the way it is. FWIW, I think the diff b/w mechanical dura ace and its electronic version is about $1500-1700 on a similar spec'd bike.

If I had the money and the choice, I would stick with mechanical. Still don't trust this electric stuff. I mean, when robots become self aware and start killing people, I want to be able to get away on my bike, not have my bike kill me.

Is this your first time trying to actually get the app or did it just stop working?
|

Post by nlinealac on Nov 30, 2011 19:14:03 GMT -8
I bought the app. When I search for our forum it won't find it, I have searched evey possible combination on las vegas fixed gear and lvfixed. Why it won't work?

Start a thread here and tell them your problem. It's the mobile app support board.

nick, the "here" is a link Tip that I learned from that board: You have to add the forum, not just search it.
