Thrill gone

Swapped my Thrill last night for a brand new Ice Fast F-118 frame. It is really nice but has been put away to build up later once I have paid my credit card off.

I have decided that I am going to retire the Yess for the winter too and build up the Dialled bikes mx24r that I have to use over the winter while I get back into shape after my broken ribs. I am going to do the SW champs next weekend on my Yess and then get the parts moved over to the Dialled the week after.

I will then use the dialled for the next few months and then go back to the Yess early next year or build up the Ice or Curtis I am not sure yet.

The dialled should be an excellent winter bike as it should be a bit more forgiving than the Yess which is good as I want to hone my manuals and jumping over the winter so a chrome frame will be better. It will hopefully also allow my ribs to heal a bit better as well as there should be less vibration due to the chrome.

The dialled also has exactly the same top tube length as my Curtis will have so it will be a good way to ease into using the Curtis.

I am trying to get some cheaper wheels to use over the winter too so that I can keep my onyx wheels just for racing so they don't get totally thrashed with all the mud and wet over the winter.

My ribs are getting much better although I have been coughing and sneezing a lot over the last couple of days which isn't fun and is not helping too much.

I am hoping that they will be healed by next weekend but I am not sure if they will be or not. I am a bit worried as I have not been able to breath very well over the last few days which may mean that my lung got punctured or is infected either way it's not good. If it gets any worse I will have to go to the doctor and get it checked out.
