    w00t!

    To disable ads, please log-in.

    I finally found a pair of gloves that fit! I was riding around Salem (I'm just up here for the week luckily, nasty, nasty town for biking!) and I passed by a sporting goods shop. When first walked in, I wasn't expecting to find anything since all they were selling were Mongooses and Schwinns and other such rubbish....but then... stashed in a back corner was their pitiful selection of bking accessories, including some heavily discounted good gloves. I found a pair of PI Gel-Lites that fit nicely for only twelve dollars!

    So yeah, I just felt like starting a thread among people who can understand my enthusiasim and besides, we I think we needed a daily crowing thread

    w00t away ladies!

    WOooohooo ain't nothing like finding that perfect thing - on sale!!.

    So Inquiring Minds want to know: would the plural be Mongooses or Mongeese?
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand, strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming: "Yeah Baby! What a Ride!"

    Thumbs up We love Bargains

    Roughingit - I can understand your enthusiasm for a good buy. A couple of weeks ago I walked into REI and they had a rack of cycling gear on sale. I did not expect to find anything but the first thing I pick up is a PI Accelerator top for $25 it was originally $100 and it fitted.

    I was so pleased I couldnt stop bringing it up in conversation. Bargains seem few and far between so who can blame us for being excited.
    The most effective way to do it, is to do it.

    no, it's polygoose.
    It's a little secret you didn't know about us women. We're all closet Visigoths.

    And the collective noun would be what? A gaggle of polygoose?
    Drink coffee and do stupid things faster with more energy.
