quotes I am very impressed by the attention to detail and all the feautres of the design. Awesome CADing! It would be great if the head angle adjustment could be easy to do on the trail. But 1.Specialized would get on his ass But 2.Chain clearance over the chainstay, even if chain would go over it, there would be a significant chain slap - should be more in line with BB-drop out, should look a bit more like... Specialized?

quotes I wonder if someone ever attempted using air as damping medium passing through a valve with just a bit of lubrication. I'm sure some weight-weenie fundamentalists would love dropping some 100g off.

quotes I was really disappointed when watching "Junior" that Arnold Schwarzenegger didn't give birth through his penis... I'm so for natural delivery

quotes Mendo - the thing you are complaining on is like saying: Latifornia has established the law that puts pressure on business owners and insurance companies to increase social benefits for employees. Therefore the employment costs went up, a lot of busineses closed down and moved to another state - Mexas, where nobody gives a fk. Those politicians tk'r'jaeeeb! No vaseline involved - I really, really don't get it, what kind of a problem you found in this article to go on Colin's ass

quotes valtra - I think you are throwing few things into one basket Nr 1 buying a product made localy like Chris King or Straitline is a good thing to do in many ways Nr 2 making certain customer choices expresses someones personality In one shot you can buy something to do a good thing, to feel better about yourself, to show off. You decide why you do, what mainstream thinks about it - who gives a fk?! Just do the right thing and leave it there, if someone buys superstar hub - who gives fk? People do fall into the logic that buying organic food, fair trade, local produced hubs, clothes, makes them moral individuals. I also believe so to some extent, but there is a certain limit to which you take those things and one of my favourite writers Raj Patel, shows that limit by this example: You really can feel great about buying a fairtrade tea in a supermarket instead of corporate Lipton tea. Nr1 - supermarket in the way it operates is the total opposite of fair trade Nr2 - fairtrade is better than slavery but!There are situations like: you go to India to a tea plantation with workers coming from two villages - one fair trade, one with slaverish wages. This cash is all good to them, when the company owning the field pumps all water from their wells to irigate plantation and people have almost nothing to drink so they buy bottled water.

quotes Not sure really, I'm not a psychologist, but it does make sense to me that all you are born with is certain physical preconditions that will shape you psychic to some extent, but isn't it the environment that shapes you most? I am 99% sure that I have motivation troubles because my parents were 1.doing everything for me, protecting me from the world as their only child 2.They are perfectionists trying do everything right from the start 3. They always discouraging me from doing any sport as they thought (and told me) I was weak and prone to infections. So, I have those super high ambitions making it very hard to set intermediate goals. Even if I try I just can't provide a satisfactory result, I can only do best I can. I have trouble with taking any, even slightly complicated action because of visualizing too many negative outcomes of any decision with high fear of failure - I just can't think of myself as a driver of a process unless I feel I am the best in the team to do so and I need a good margin of confidence.

quotes As far as my logic goes, the leverage ratio alone has nothing to do with either linear or progressive characteristics of spring medium. It just makes you need to use more/less air pressure isn't it? Sure, that will make it slightly more progressive but to my understanding it is the changing leverage ratio and frame rate (like VPP) that does make a big difference. If I'm wrong please explain.

quotes I won few architectural competitions and lost many more, with 2 most frustrating second prizes - I avoid certain parts of my city because I can't look at sites being built according to someone elses project. I worked 12h a day 7d a week with many sleepless nights, sometimes for the length of few months - It did not get me far, because I can't put it together. I lack motivation and have big problem with concentration, but I was always told: you are born with architecture or you aren't - well I found a teacher that told me otherwise and gave me directions and against other fuckers - I did achieve something and I did learn a lot of what I've been told is accessible only to the chosen ones.

quotes wasea04 - I just want ot start with a bit of vaseline and say that since my wife also does a PhD at the very moment I do have respect for scientists, and I think we all should because the authority is being downgraded more and more in the mainstream, and I believe for a purpose... and if you don't believe in established authority like science and (sorry) religion, you can believe in any shit. But since I also learned that there is a lot of contaminated non-intependent science including psychology (Eddy Bernaise is my favourite) therefore I am very sceptical of ideas like being preprogrammed, talented, because for an every-day-life occupied mind it means "you are what you are - proceed while admiring chosen-ones. Talent is also a very unclear thing to me - when you read all those books about "how to get there" by either sportsmen or business pricks, you find many similarities, even if you read Brian Lopes "fill in the holes" you might find a paralell to things that Gwin, Senna, Alan Sugar or Armstrong say: being disciplined and organized, having a general objective but setting intermediate small goals and gaining motivation by achieving them - you might get an idea that these people could be successful in anything. So are they talented in specific discipline or they are talented in reaching their goals? Maybe Shaun Palmer is talented in being multitalented? What gets notoriously shut down in the mainstream (for the great use of business and "seniors" of specific disciplines affraid of new blood, particularly visible in banking, law, design) is that you can learn anything and become very good at it at nearly any point of your life. Then you get confusing advices like: it takes enormous volume of hard work - sure but that doesn't mean anything. It takes smart planning and discipline, most of all in your mind - if you can't find time to be with your thoughts and focus, you won't get far - in the era of smartphones things gets harder than ever.

quotes Yes I thought, that it was a helpful comment... at least that was my intention. You can youtube Ayrton Senna and maybe you will find the interview where he talks about what he thought about "talent". He didn't like it that much to be called "talented" to make it easy for you... if you don't like what I write and want to "bury me" a bit, you might find another interview where he talks about the difference between knowing how to do something and actualy doing it. At least if I motivate anyone to learn a bit about Senna or any other top dog, that comment might be helpful as well, but I'm not going to make a big deal out of it so... bye

Rower jaki mam taki mam - dbam o niego ile mogę, ale też nie oszczędzam go. Jakiś czas temu wyszedłem z założenia, że wolę wnukom opowiadać jak w błocie czy w śniegu coś zniszczyłem, niż o tym, że w zimie lub w deszcz siedziałem w domu. A części jak padną to wlecą noweSmile (ostatnio tak załatwiłem stery i tylną piastę Nuke Proof, że musiałem wymienić większość łożysk). Zabawa w dobrym towarzystwie przede wszystkim. Tereny na Roztoczu są świetne, nie jest bardzo wysoko, ale można znaleźć takie miejsca, że szczęka opada - mini górySmile Pozdrawiam!

Świetna galeria - dawn patrol to klawy pomysłSmile Do tego gratuluję angielskiej erudycji. Widać, że są ludzie, którzy mają jakieś pojęcie o tym języku i nie przesypiali większości lekcji w szkole. Szkoda, że nie ma więcej takich Polaków na PB. Szacunek. PZDR
