My dad picked up two boxes from the Customs Office today. They were full of cool gear!

First box was from Elden. countless jerseys and a much anticipated vest was in it. by the size of the jerseys I can tell that he used to be the same size with me, before becoming the formerly Fat Cyclist. Thank you so much Elden for starting Project Outfit Tayfur (P.O.T.)! Thanks to you now 2 girls and 5 men have lots of stuff to wear.

The second was from Cathy Boland. The box was especially full of womens' clothes. I already found a few racers to give all those clothes. Thanks a lot!

Let's update some other stuff. My bike's been at the shop for 5 days now. Man, the Shop's owner must be furious! I didn't go to pick my bike up during the week. I couldn't, I didn't have any spare time and I honestly didn't want to ride my bike. Now I'm anxious to get my bike and ride it a couple of miles. It doesn't seem very possible under the thunderstorm we have going on here. I guess I'll have to find a car to go and pick my bike up with. Tomorrow I will (hopefully) be the proud oner of a 27 speed bike. The drivetrain doesn't have 2 things of the same model. The crankset is an LX, fd is Alivio, rd is Deore, chain is KMC, cassette is a used old SRAM PG-950. some patchwork! At least it will be a 27 speed.

Anywho, thanks to everyone participating in the P.O.T!

see you later.
