back in october i'd ordered a track frame from desalvo cycles down in ashland. i met the owner, mike desalvo, down at interbike last year and fell in love with his stuff. last week i got an email saying that the frame was done and shipping off to be painted. mike said he felt bad about the delay so he was throwing in a free chris king headset. fuck. he was already hooking me up with a fat deal on the frame so i wasn't expecting that at all.
finally, i talked to my brother charles on the phone yesterday. i don't think i've mentioned it on here yet but he and mary are getting married in october. anyway, he asked me to be his best man. i was stoked on it even before he mentioned that there couldn't be any strippers at the bachelor party. it hadn't even occurred to me that i'd be responsible for the bachelor party.
