1) Alberto Contador is officially back from the world's shortest two-year suspension;
and
B) Freds everywhere are beginning to prepare for cyclocross season.
Cyclocross varies from region to region, but if you want to try it New York City Fred style here's how:
--Order 19 skinsuits
--Have your coach provide you with a custom-tailored bespoke cyclocross-specific training program
--Get your crabon race bike and your crabon pit bike professionally tuned up, even though you barely touched them last season, and also have the mechanic re-glue the six pairs of tubular race wheels you never used
--Attend a cyclocross clinic at which you determine you now need disc brakes in order to be competitive
--Upgrade or replace bike fleet accordingly (and don't forget that Powertap disc hub!)
--Go to one (1) race, in which you get lapped because "your disc brakes were rubbing"
--Return bikes to co-op bike room and congratulate yourself on yet another successful cyclocross campaign.
As you can see from the above, I've got my work cut out for me, which is why without further a-duh I'm pleased to present you with a quiz. As always, study the item, think, and click on your answer. If you're right you'll know it, and if you're wrong you'll see some sound advice.
Thanks very much for reading, ride safe, and as a wise Fred once said: If you can't open your legs just open your wallet.

IRLY BERD
Whoa! It would've taken a Herculean lead out to get me to a podium this early in the day! Way to keep us on our toes Snob. Stanley Wiggins smokes WEED!!!!!
Not so bad after all seeing as the top twenty is just one?
The one dude fighting in that bus video at the 1:00 mark takes it right in the pants yabbies. Oof!
Geez Blog, Frilly is not even up yet.
Love is like a fart, if you have to force it, it's probably crap.
HAPPY WEEKEND AND MAY YOU BE SHUFFLED ALONG BY EPIC TAILWINDS THAT ARE GOING 3 MPH FASTER THAN THE RABID MUTTS!
Rain bike guy is a Fred among Freds, a king among kings.
No smoking on the bus!
I heard it's possible, that if one wanted to dip their feet into the proverbial water that is cyclocross, one might just put drop bars on their mtb or run different tires on their road ride???? No?
Just read yesterday's and realised why Americans think Cornish Pasties is a funny name for a food.
RTMS: that bit about the consequences of triathletes operating mowercycles was some funny shit mate.
Now, the quiz. Nice weekend everyone.
I'm still pouting cause I missed the Frilly link yesterday. Sigh...
Out for dinner last night, and my friend hands me a pair of sparkly black pasties- imagine my surprise!
Now to figure out how to twirl them in opposite directions...
Joe Thursday from yesterday's post makes the big time.
Also a cameo by my buddy Hal.

Nice job, sir. We are still wiping the sleep form our eyes on the West Coast. Gobsmacked.
Those cheap-ass fuckers at Best Made.
The brASS suppository does not come with the matches.
"As a wise Fred once said: If you can't open your legs just open your wallet"
Or as a wise man said during the 1976 Olympics: "Juantorena opens his legs and shows his class".
Tried a new strategy today. I picked the funniest answers. Didn't work except for the suppository question - they're missing a great marketing opportunity.

Babble On,
Just click on her handle, then click BS Explanation and go to the 1st post. It's the postest with mostest. You still get the calve award.
@anon 10:04
you heard wrong. cyclocrossing is a serious elite echelon only exclusive club shrouded in crabon and disc brakeen mist. if you showed up with that shiddy attitude of yours you would be immediately yelled at. I suggest you go to one of these events first, to spectate and start planning which euroclown you want to emmulate, buy three matching machines, one for pit, one for warm-up laps, and one for race. get an audi quattro or simular and hire a pit crew. oh, and one other thing; never ever ask a fellow competitor what tire pressure they are running.
I do loves me sum pasties. And by that I mean the Cornish meat pies. The kind strippers wear never turned me on or even made any sense to me.
For those unaware, The meat pie version is pronounced with the short a sound, as in cat.
Well then how are the stripper kind of pasties pronounced? Now I am confused...
Now of course an original Cornish pasty would have had meat at one end and fruit at the other, so that the miners could have a complete meal underground without making too much of a mess.
Stuffed and Cuffed
All Crabon fibre and priced just right.
I could have been a contender.
But while Blog Drafter was hogging the podium, I was enjoying a few laps in Prospect Park.
On the way to the park, I passed a helmentless woman of a certain age riding in the bike lane up Union Street.
She called out to me that "you're supposed to say on your left when passing; it's helpful."
I always thought it was a dick move to call out on your left at 10mph when swinging five feet out of the bike lane to pass someone with plenty of room.
But I just smiled and waved.
A few minutes later, I stopped for the red light at Union and Court Streets. The woman caught up with me, pulled across traffic on Union, ran the light and turned left onto Court Street (a one way street on which she went the wrong way).
So much for cycling tips from the cognoscenti.
I love New Yorkers. We're not always right, but we're never in doubt.
My dog takes a different view. He says opinions are like butt cheeks. We all have them. But not all of them should be on public display.
Oh well, ride safe all. And if you share your opinions, here's hoping it's an appreciative audience.
Who the fuck would drive that goddamn bus through a lake?
Right thar's yer problem!
leroy,
When you passed her on the left, you were obviously blocking her from making a left turn onto the Clinton st. bike lane so she could travel in the correct direction, which I'm sure she always does.
She was probably on her way to Sweet Melissa for a smugness tart.
Best Made promises "piece of mind" from their brass dingleberry gizmo.
Go AC! Venga! Venga! Venga!
mikeweb --
Did Sweet Melissa close? I looked for them the other day and didn't see them. It looked like some writing co-op space took over their space. No wonder Marty Amis moved in to the nabe.
Oh well, there's still the lemon ice at the Court Street Bakery.
mikeweb --
And the odd thing about my encounter this morning was that another cyclist was coming down Union Street the wrong way while a car was backing up against one way traffic on Clinton, but I'm the one whom our fellow cyclist decided needed advice.
Heck, she didn't even realize I put myself between her and the dangerous folks.
So much for chivalry.
leroy,
As far as I know it's still open.
I received a surprise call today from and old buddy who's thinking of moving to Brooklyn. He asked about cycling to work in Manhattan. I told him as long as he rides the wrong way against traffic half the time he'll fit right in.
Jelly fish halter tops are trending?
Dooth,
The stinging tentacles help keep you awake, and the ability to read by the light of your own clothes comes in very handy.
crosspalms, hmm, l see. Now, should I wear my LaBoutin stilettos or Blahnik pumps? Oh, I'm such a slave to fashion!
Do I or do I not see boobies in the glow-blouse image? I need to know whether or not to get excited.
I don't mean to brag, but my painting will be on display throughout Brooklyn this weekend.
I'll be marking part of the TA Century route.
McFly -- go ahead and get excited. You're going to see 'em whether they're there or not.
check it out mate http://whatsnext.blogs.cnn.com/2012/08/17/meet-the-inflatable-invisible-bike-helmet/?hpt=hp_c2
AAAAAAH! Oh yes, I see! Cheers!
Very nice... almost divine. :)
Long ride, beautiful day, quite drunk. Happy girl.
The glow blouse would be much more fun if it were tight. And wet.
As long as it stayed the fuck away from Robba the Fords.
McFly @ 9:32 - :D
Nonny Mouse @ 9:31 - IIIIIIIIII KNOW, right??!
re: the sparkly pasties - they don't patch a tube very well.
night john boy. hic
OK I envisioned the glow-boobies and was getting my Fofonov on when I bumped the mouse and Neve Campbell was on my screen, instant limp biscuit. Where's a good calve pic when you need one?
Panties!
Latex!
I was watching the stage 1 TTT of the Vuelta and Euskatel-Euskadi got passed by some hombre on a bakefiets peddaling epic burritos. He got flagged down by some drunk Basque fans and they passed him back.
Burritos in the Basque country?
Come on, McFly!
I had hopes for you--breaking the red neck stereotype.
Tapas! It's tapas in the Basque country: A burrito, there, is just a small mule.
Ok, on stage 2 I just spotted a Caja Rural rider with his rear skewer in the 6 o'clock position. Unacceptable.
A true redneck would never spot that infraction.
O.k McFly, good reply.
Stanley can't even smoke a joint at Tesco anymore!

After which you are taking your car to a nearby mechanic store. The first factor a mechanic does shouldOriginal AUTOBOSS PC MAX
be to plug a little something into a connector (knowledge url connector or DLC) beneath the dash. From there, a cord prospects to some handheld electronic device. A mechanic seems to be in a display of the product.
You can pinpoint the source of the compression leak by listening etc. However, the Lexus manual specifically says a compression test and gives an ktag ecu exact spec. I have a Ford F150 1999 with a check engine light ON. I got the code P0401. Egr.bmw isis flow insuff. With the help of you in this forum, I've changed DPFE sensor( including its hoses); egr valve and clean its ports; valcunn valve. I did the test, and received the 44 code- which is the O2 sensor. I replaced the sensor, reset the battery, and the check engine light is still coming on. I still get the 44 code, and don't know what my next wtep is.
