I was right behind these guys in line at the 5-mile course. They were very happy to talk about the bike with me. I was impressed that they had the foresight to put on a purpose-built fiberglass fairing (more "slippery") and tiny rear sprocket (taller gearing).
Also, it's pretty weird when you're hanging out that the starting line hearing/smelling all these loud, gassy (in a good way) hot rods and blown 'Busas... and then all of a sudden this thing takes off with the noise of maybe a Huffy.

I'm downright sad that I didn't see this post sooner.
I would have given Deadspin a personal tour of Mario's Fishbowl. My dad/step-mom are the owners.

Look, HL, I created Crasstalk way before the Gawker redesign and I invited everyone here on Crosstalk to join the site. And I've made a point of saying that anyone is welcome at the site as long as they can play well with others.
The rules would be the same for you or anyone else who comes to the site. So please don't make it sound like me or the other two moderators there are trying to exclude you. If you can't get along with people, say that. But don't make it sound like it's some cabal trying to keep you out.
P.S. Please don't PM me. I never read that shit.

Toyota's costumers are hiding behind a mask of incompetence.
Sun Microsystems? Never heard of 'em. Probably some company that was much less innovative than Facebook!
Was Cop Rock not the spiritual ancestor of Glee, the show all you guys love so much?
Great. Now AOL is going to ruin HuffPo by turning it into a collection of hacky, disposable keyword-clogged SEO spam articles about how Kim Kardashian and Snooki want Mubarak to step down.
Have you ever wanted to run your own exclusive preparatory academy for the sons and daughters of the gentry?

@Canadian: I confess, at one point a few years ago I was SURE that FB was horribly overvalued and would never make money.
I guess that's why I'm broke and unemployed instead of a well-paid financial analyst!

Here's The Onion's description of Packers fans...
STRENGTHS: Whatever muscles one uses to lift 340 pounds of lard out of bed each morning; unwilling to let work, family, religion, or even basic necessities like health and shelter stand in the way of their devotion to the Packers; best fans in the world
WEAKNESSES: Discussions about the 1970s or ’80s; are the last fan group in the United States to still perform the Wave; pretty much takes a tiny little Packers jersey to get them to love their kids
AVERAGE INCOME: 3.2 season ticket packages per annum
FAVORITE SAUSAGE: Sausage
OTHER INTERESTS: None
