Tire Plug...FAIL
Rating: 96
Okay, I suck, not tire plugs. I couldn't get the stupid thing in, and I shredded the tire fairly badly getting the curved nail out. For peace of mind I'm buying a new tire.

Group ride...supposedly.
Rating: 143
It started as an easy-paced group ride with me leading through the first 20 miles. The final 20 miles I followed and the guys took off, leaving me in the dust. There's no finish line on the street, but most guys don't get that...
It's worth pointing out that I could see the guy in front of me checking his mirrors occasionally to make sure I was reasonably close behind. If I went down he would've known.

This took quite a while to edit, but I think it was worth the effort. Enjoy. And I'm not tagging anyone since it's been so long.

Cleaning off some bugs and dust, then I switch over to dealing with being broke and paying for college.

Recreating the problem
Rating: 86
My attempt to intentionally make my bike do the weird movement/noise on me. The movement is a millimeter max; just big enough for me to feel it.

Lockable tailbag (Givi)
Rating: 79
Bikes don't have much storage, so I'm looking at other options. I need something secure.

How to: lube your chain
Rating: 137
It's also a good idea to check and adjust your chain's tension while you have the wheel off the ground. I mentioned this when recording but left it out since it was getting too long.
