rusty seeds.

09032007259
last night, i spent some more time getting rid of the rust on my $18 Motobecane. man, its soo bad. every little speck of rust turns into a much bigger spot once i get the paint off. I took the bottom bracket out last night & it was soo unbelievably rusty in there. oh man, was it bad. i pulled out these rusty "thingys" that at first i thought were the ball bearings.. just totally rusted into an odd shape. but nope. i broke one open and it was A SEED. haha. all rusted over. soo funny. no idea how that got in there...but there was a few of them. ill try to get some pictures soon.

still trying to get the seatpost out. ugh. that may not happen though.

I'm thinking my plans of racing UNH tomorrow. actually, re-thinking.
I'm kinda tired. As much as I'm not overly concerned about Glostah, I also dont want to be dying, either.

as a last resort, we would take off the saddle, put the post in a vise, and then torque the frame back and forth to rotate it off the post. would take two guys to do it, and you have to take your time b/c the seat tube gets hot. have fun!
