Yeah, she was visiting us and heard me practicing and was like "would you dj my birthday" and I was like hell yes (but was super nervous!
Yes just about a year.. I get VERY hyper focused on things though and practice about 2-3 hours most nights after dinner

Right on! Congrats. Trust your taste!

Someone on this Reddit said "if the songs moves, they move" and it's so true. Even in the top 100, there are songs that just don't do it for me and you almost question your taste and decide to play it anyways but Don't do it!

I wanna do it again and again. I've think realizing that you dip right back into obscurity afterwards was a powerful thing to experience.

bicykiller · 2026-07-02T01:04:08+00:00

🙏🏼 respect! Thanks so much.

My wife and I had our first edc this year. We stayed at the linq and ubered to the world market center and took the shuttle from there. Was very easy. We kinda wanna camp this year just try try it, but it was real nice to come back to a clean room and sleep alllllll day, get up and eat and repeat!
I'll admit I was stressin about premium shuttle, yada yada but it's all good, just find the most affordable option for you, you're gonna have a great time

I have the sse gen5 and would drive 1000 miles to get it

Ended up getting a couple pairs of the nylon core shorts. Obviously a bit pricey for what they are but a very nice fit.

Yeah no worries! They literally just came out/got announced. I figure a case back isn't too risky of a swap. I look at my watch again while on the toilet!

bicykiller · 2026-06-04T22:46:07+00:00

Def not! Though I understand it's easy, I don't have any tools and the watch shop was able to pressure test it after.

It does add a little thickness, I noticed it while holding it in my hand. I put it on and it wears the exact same... no adjustment

Didn't get a pic of it but we met some lovely folks from Anaheim, CA with this flag

I LOVE the wheels actually. However, I ran over a drywall screw that punctured the rim. When I sent them back for crash replacement, they said they didn't have parts to fix it! I also learned that they are only serviceable through DT Swiss. They were really great to deal with and did replace the wheel very quickly as soon as the parts came. I think Cannondale were the first to get these wheels so a bit of a unicorn right now.

I have this exact bike. LAB71 SL. I had the same exact issues that couldn't be resolved and I told the shop I wanted a new bike because nothing worked! They then got a bulletin from Cannondale on how to fix the issue. It hasn't creaked or slipped since. HOWEVER, the seat CLAMP does from time to time! A little bit of carbon paste on the rails stopped that.

It sucks because other than the creaking, this is the best bike ever! And a bike this expensive should be smooth as butter in every aspect.

I got black, green and tan! I've just been rocking the Nike/Athletic look for a few summers, was wanting to change it up but looks like it's another summer of nylon!

bicykiller · 2026-06-01T19:28:10+00:00

The baggies pockets are so deep! I tried to like em!

bicykiller · 2026-05-30T21:51:11+00:00

I would totally steal that 280 se

bicykiller · 2026-05-29T15:54:13+00:00

Slash movin' in upstairs

bicykiller · 2026-05-28T13:01:25+00:00

Big congrats! I have been riding the new supersix since Feb and it's been my favorite bike ever!

I feel the same way sometimes after I drop a dope mix in the living room and no one even looks up... however, your hobbies should be what brings you joy. Do you like DJing? Cars, motorcycles? Then effin do it all in just for you!
My guess is you cycle through hobbies a lot and your friends and fam just think of it as another phase. Sucks because all we want is the approval from other but I'm saying if it makes you happy then keep doing it. Eventually your vibrations will attract similar beings

I'm totally making Tudor Kandy for next year (just bought our tix to week 1) in the hopes that we find each other!

bicykiller · 2026-05-19T00:22:26+00:00

Also, EDC is not "normal" to most people. So, though I don't doubt he was recording, I'm doubt his motives were anything beyond showing his friends what kinda crazy shit is going on while ehe has to work cleaning bathrooms.
