I'm scared to carry a tube with me. I never have, and I just know that the first time I do will be the time that I get a flat and actually need the tube. Fate has been on my side thus far. Its like reverse flat psychology.
I also ride Specialized. Love it. Although, Trek's framesets are looking much prettier the past couple of years.
How many of you shave your legs? You know its the only way to be a real rider!

For Americans war is almost all of the time a nuisance, and military skill is a luxury like Mah-Jongg. But when the issue is brought home to them, war becomes as important, for the necessary period, as business or sport. And it is hard to decide which is likely to be the more ominous for the [terrorists] -- an American decision that this is sport, or that it is business.
