@Matt yeah I added a garage door where an entrance door and window used to be and removed a set of steps inside going to to the apartment I rent out above. Built the steps outside and added a door on a landing. Also added a mini split in the garage and my car and me are so comfy out here together but my wife added little notes all over the place reminding me of the beautiful family I have back in the house that want to spend time with me too lol

@Choko I agree. Never heavier. Always a sideways trade or an upgrade! One of my lifes values actually in all aspects lol

@Choko yup! Cheap and light! Had old school Weds tc105n for years and had them powder coated but it turned out way to gold/champagne for my tastes so I offloaded them to an STI guy and they looked fecking awesome on his pearl white.
Actually have my eyes on a new set of Weds 105x or Volk CE28N in black but I'm on an EVO spending freeze for a few

@NorvilleRogers . I'm new at this selfie thing so you get what you get. I took two photos on that occasion and the other one I was wearing a shit eating grin so I chose the brooding face pic instead lol

@FlavourFade gotcha. Might throw mine in the tub this weekend while the wife and kids are away to tighten them back up a bit. It'll be my third wash in about 50 wears...

@FlavourFade machine wash? Looks good!

@jaliskoe those chinos are so tempting. You wear then exactly how I'd like to. Crazy how much the measurements state how much I need to size up to!

@FlavourFade I can't stand spots and I've learned to not spot clean my black jeans. I'll dab if it's not bad but once I get a spot or few I can't dab out I tub wash. I think your fading will still be pretty high contrast after a gentle cleaning. My black or ib jeans will never see a washer just tub washed gently

@mental_messiah appreciate it! Stock fit from Thurston measurements worked.

@SourPower Excess in moderation!! Love it

@Giles I was actually just thinking the other day if IH would ever make anything stitched with dyneema! Strong stuff. I'm still holding on to an old post and saddle setup for my trail bike as a keepsake but it made me a little nervous riding around at 90kg on these super lightweight parts riding as hard as I do ...Darimo/speed needle

@cityofdelusion great information. Much appreciated. I actually have been eyeing The Shop Vancouver pioneer black type 3 and put a 42 in my cart this afternoon after reading your posts only for it to sell out this evening when I got home. Might be something I kick myself in the ass for not pulling the trigger on sooner. That inner pocket and brushed buttons were it, man

@Inorganic I wore my SB 30s half belt to a job site one day and I got talking to a guy about 'riding' and how we both haven't been on our 'bikes' in a while because the weather had been shitty for weeks... My helper told me later on that he was talking about motorcycles while I had been talking about my mountain/trail BIKEcycle!! I laugh my ass off whenever I slip on one of my leather jackets I think back on that conversation
