    Time to hit my employer up for a new Brooks saddle, more relaxed geometry track frame, and lightweight wheels to help my legs and back for my commute to work.

          Ive got a Sprint in my house right now. Neat little frame.
          And seriously about the bill, you guys should start riding more and hit up your employer. This is not an option, this is fucking law. They have to reimburse you from what I understand. This bill has been making its way through Congress for 7 years now.

                I agree man. Cool little bike but its just that. Little. i just remeasured it and its like a 52cm c-c ST :( im like 6 foot tall... Its a free bike worth of parts though at least I found an old 56cm German frame and fork for $25 pretty local so i might go pick that up. Get some tires tubes, a cog and a lockring and go screw around. If i like fix ill buy a track wheelset this winter when i have money.

                    Thanks for noticing my post in Mug shots thread. And you're right, Sheppherd Ferry is the urban uber mother fuckin dick swinger. DC sucks the cock of OBEY. Do you realize how big Andre the Giants cock is?

                        Basically it says you're only going to get 20 dollars multiplied by however many "qualified" bicycle riding months. That will be your annual reimbursement cap. So the dead of winter you wont be riding and maybe the dead of summer you wont be riding so knock off 3 months.
                        20x9=180
                        You get 180 dollars to spend on shit for your bicycle. I guess its up to your employer to decide if you ride regularly or not to justify you fitting into this category. The term regularly is pretty loose and flexible though I'm sure.
                        Im sure my employer will just cut me a check because I'll expense that shit out when I expense all my other bills out lawlz...

                            Looks hawt. I don't care what anyone says about the stem, I dig it. Are the tires an upgrade, or wear replacement?

                              Kevin and I did some serious skidding around LA last weekend. Needless to say, I took my tire down to the nylon in about 2 days. I'm going to go easy on the skidding unless absolutely necessary. I'm actually loving the stem with these bars too, they flow together nicely imo.
