Title: IRONY
Post by: Aaron Price on April 11, 2009, 07:02:06 am
Is having a garage full of bikes and finding the only bikes that you can get started are a street bike and a Husqvarna of all things.

The trusty old XR won't start?  Whats up with that?  Talk nice to her and make sure you hold your tongue in the right position and she should come to life.  That is ironic, and probably really frustrating.

She will start... but the sudden loss of 35 pounds has left me without the weight or strength to do it myself.  After the second surgery when I can start running and working out again it should be fine, but for now it is just to much bike for me to kick over.

Well maybe for now I should borrow your chain and sprockets.  My XR has developed a case of the tweeker teeth as well.  Seems like a ravenous plague.  Once one tooth goes, they all start falling out!  Its purdy but not as bad as yours was yet, another ride should do it.

I just changed the sprockets on the DR today.  It was even worse that when I changed the XR.  It looked like a dull  circular saw blade.

What is this, a Price family problem? Not replacing chains/sprockets?

Seriously though Aaron, you'll be back in one piece real soon, keep your chin up!

Well the DR is my wife's bike I figured she didn't ride hard enough that I needed to worry that much but she has picked up the pace. 

I should be back this fall.  I am shooting for the Desert Daisy's Qualifier.

Hopefully I can come out and take some pictures this Sunday.

Good luck with the up coming Surgery.
