CHROME WHEELS
03/05/12 5:29 AM

Put on a nice set of used chrome wheels on my 2008 way dark blue that is almost black and the bike bike now looks like crap.
Wheels look nice but the bike itself with all the bug nuts and guts looks like crap now.

Put chromies and and now I have to clean the rest of the bike.

Bobby, that's the price you gotta pay to look good at bike night. Speaking of bike nights, have you ever attended the Wednesday Night Bike Night at Schlafly Tap Room?

I don't even know what a Schlafly Tap Room is. I don't get out much anymore which sucks because I could ride a different bike every day of the work week with what is in the gayrage but they just keep sitting and I keep buying stuff for bikes I have no time to ride.

It also sucks because I don't know how to read a map or work a gps so I get lost easy plus I do not understand n-s-e-w but I do know forward - backward - right and left. My taking trip options kinda suck unless I am with someone that knows where they are going.

I'm sure it still looks better over-all now. Chrome wheels usually look better with darker paints in my opinion. On cars or bikes.

It will be 2 more weeks before the new icy box makes it here so if you need a shot of the non-working one I can do that.

Here is a pik of the the rodent that is about to cause a divorce. Since these piks were taken I have stripped and polished the wheel lips. This is her bike I have been banned from it twice so far but have had my senior moments or memory lapses as she calls them and ride it without permission.
