Sigh... This is what I should be feeling now.. Till now, saya punye Tank Fobia belum lagi masuk ICU. Itu Doctor macam tak la senang mau layan gua.. Sigh...
Anyhow also... Even if I get my bike repaired, the following few weekends, I'll be held up with Taekwondo classes. Can't neglect my kids as well, since they have got their grading coming up in August.
I think I better set a deadline for me to get the bike repaired. If not it will continue to sit in the store room and collect dust. Got the new parts also haven't fixed yet... Macam orang Cina cakap, boleh tengok, tak boleh makan..

RAGE !!!

Bored at Starbucks SS15 SJ - 13.06.07
This happened on 1 of those nights, that you just refused to stay at home.. No matter how tired you are or what not.. Something is just telling you to GET OUT OF THE HOUSE !
Well that was what happened that night... From office already I knew, I wanted to be out that night. Just didn't feel like staying at home.. Probably cause been in the office all day, sitting down trapped within the 4 walls. Needed to BREAK FREE type of feeling...
Called CS... Ajak him along, wanted to have coffee anyhow and a place to do work. At least in a more open area, nice cold blended coffee AND free to smoke... Decided to bring our DSLR along...
Well... I managed to get some work done, as well as a few shots. Sadly, there weren't much people for us to snap candid. No interesting subject...
OUT

Funding for a COVERT ops...
Really... It has been a long while since there has been any ride posting on this blog. Mainly since we haven't been riding, at all.. Major is down with back bone injury, myself - Tank Fobia is in coma, in the process of getting it fixed. Tweeter pulak have been busy over the weekends, photo shoots and what not. So just left Red Dragon to ride lor.. And he have been riding, Kiara mostly..
So finally, last Saturday evening, finally I made my way to Project Maheez. Went there after a short shooting session with CS in 1Utama, but that is another story.. It was nice going to Project Maheez, when we reached it was just Armijn there alone. He was working on removing the front wheel of his (soon-to-be-sold) Ironhorse Sunday. Cause the RS BOXXER was sold to a guy from Penang, didn't get his name. It was the usual talk cog, or more like gossiping session to me.
I have asked for my hubs.. It was between a RED anodized Ringle hubs or go back to Tank Lights, which I have no problem with both. But there is a price different of about RM200, which is gonna be worth it - for the RED coloured hubs. Of course it would depends on whether Armijn can source for it or not. Thankfully he can get Tank Lights hubs, from Penang, and fast delivery also - 1 day delivery. But the LX crank might be more difficult to get, as now, the supplier / distributor don't sell Shimano grouppo seperately. Hopefully Armijn can use his contacts over in Singapore...
Was suppose to drop my bike to Project Maheez yesterday evening. But then I was down with fever and bad sore throat. Forced me to be in bed the whole day, slept most of the day and night. So just sms Armijn, told him to go ahead with the order of them parts - LX crank & Tank Lights hubs (rear only if possible). Keep the RED anodized Ringle hubs for (maybe) the new Transition COVERT...
Oh yes... It is true... I'm thinking of going full sus ! Don't know why... Initially wanted to get the DirtBag, but then the 4-bar linkage looks bit too complicated. Major did warned me about the linkage bearing, have to take good care of it. Which is 1 setback of using full sus...
Now back to the COVERT operation.. Don't know why but I would really wanna give full sus a try, then again.. To sell off my Tank Fobia, bit the sayang also. Sigh... COVERT frame + DHX coil would cost me somewhere around RM4000++, not including the other parts yet. Or was that the price for a full bike ? Can't really recall.. Still the figures are scary !
This project, or operation would really need detailed and long term planning... Not really easy forking out that much cash. And hor, got other things on my Wishlist as well leh. Don't forget, I've got the Tamron 17-50mm f2.8 lens that I've been eyeing for so long. Even if I'm getting the COVERT, it would be at the beginning of next year.. After bonus is out. OR unless I can convince Tweeter to sell off the Montana, then I pass the Tank over to him. Using whatever cash, I top up the balance for a COVERT, which at the end of it still gotto fork out a large sum of cash. Oh well... like I said, it requires detailed and long term planning.. Seems like after (almost) fully upgrade the Tank, I'm selling it off...
Guess the next posting from me... Might just be about a new frame, OR another ride's blog...
