So in Korea, only day laborers own tools. It's just not common for people to fix there on problems, with that said, I went from tool shop to tool shop trying to buy tools. I got the strangest questions and at one point this guy just walked away and wouldn't sale me the drill. I had to go find him and force the money in his hand.

As far as the bike, anytime there is an abandoned building, Koreans will fill it with trash and various garbage. So these places are treasure troves, I found this bike there and the only things it needed were pedals and a new plastic piece for the dunlop valve. So it's my Bruiser, Korean edition. I had to switch the front wheel out for a few days. It seems like a better setup with the small tire, it's kinda like a mountain goat, it can climb hills at lightening speeds.

Anyway.... I'm completely stoked to get a chance to play. There's a girl in my town that played in the states and Julia Van Horn from St. Louis sent me an email, so hopefully we'll have some good games this summer.

I talked to Julia at the lock-in about finding you. Be warned, that girl brings the party.

We'll have a bike built up for you by then.... I think I'm going to get an Arch welder this weekend or next and start welding some extra frames together. So you will have some mishmash for you to ride.

Also, there are other bikes besides NEXT, but for something reliable that you could take on the road, well that will set you back 600-800 bucks. So if someone from your work knows anyone, that would be awesome.

I like the clipless pedals on the bum bike, nice touch.
