  2. If you're running iOS7 or iOS 8, it's under settings--->Do not Disturb. You can set it up to come on manually or automatically.
  3. Mine is set to kick into night mode at 9 pm and revert to normal at 7 am. With the kids and me using it as my alarm, it's the only way to avoid the drunk text threads or clients who misread time zones. To answer your question Alden: yes. Some people still don't quite understand the concept of turning off their cell phone when they don't want to be disturbed.
  4. Is the head acid cleaned or painted ? That has more bling than the blue cover.
  5. As other said: use any regular hose that can handle fuel/brake fluid. I remember putting mine on the nipple with no effort and not using a clamp to hold it. There's no pressure, your clutch is gravity fed and won't require pressure in that line.
  6. I should clarify: meds, anything involving syringes, etc...
  7. I'm sorry but if you pull your blood, store it and then re-inject it, it's blatant doping, no better than PED's. It'd be like taking steroids and saying: I'm just taking a concentrated version of what's naturally in my body. Recovery assistance should be mechanical IMHO, massage, ice baths, etc... If anything has to enter your body, you're not following the spirit of fair sportsmanship.
  8. Wow, that hit was bad, it knocked both shoes off. Not a fan of seeing his head snap back like that.
  9. No one can escape the death wobble!
  10. I'm boring, I don't think I've ever had anything but my bikes up there!
  11. Looks stupid but given the punishment cross bikes receive, I'm sure Cannondale has thought it through.
  12. Focus kids, focus. You annoy me both because you love spending your money. How's that ? A good friend will only vote Republican, regardless of the agenda and another only Democratic, because it's the parties they're affiliated with. I doubt they would vote for some of the people they voted for if there no parties. I don't see how it's communism. Wasn't the issue with communism the dogma and not the lack of party labels ?
  13. I've never wanted Skittles as much as right now.
  14. Looks good Mike. Sourcing vintage stuff is an exercise in patience IMHO, I suck at it.
  15. Dude's wife is sooooooo short, I hadn't realized.
  16. Awesome stuff, as Travis said: great to see this still happening through VS. The RMS is a pain to get right. Try finding a piece of PCV that is the same diameter and use it to push it in evenly. Easiest way to do it, otherwise you'll bunch up somewhere and fold it without knowing it. I would recommend changing that water pipe that runs above the exhaust. Mine looks the same and is super thin in one spot. It will eventually rust through. IIRC, the part is cheap from Volvo, I have a new one to install ASAP.
  17. Not feeling the bars, but are they comfortable ? Reminds me of the bikes I used to ride in Holland in high school.
