Encounter

My room's a big mess. In fact, it's actually more of a store room than anything else. One good entire cabinet is filled with my brother's books, and half the walking space is filled with boxes containing my old academic material. My defunct bed is actually one of those climb-up-a-ladder kind of elevated bed. On the under side of my bed I've suspended random unused bike spare parts etc and my bags. Just spent the day clearing out my shelf of more usesless bike packagings and worn out parts.

Due to the design of the house etc, my room is probably the one with the worst ventilation. It probably explains why some of my bike tools have corroded and rusted, just staying in the corner of the room. Yikes. Time to whip out my WD-40, or buy some kerosene...

Next time if I have a house I'ld probably dedicate a nice well-ventilated section for my stuffs. That is, if I'm still doing sports.

Yes, Shimano's finally coming out with new, nicer looking, shoes next year and I'm prob gonna get one of these... My old black one (R-151) is really dying and the other pair (TR-01) cannot make it in terms of the fit and upper-support. These new models are supposedly custom fit as they have heat-moldable portions in the sole and shoe itself. Just need to spend some time at the local Shimano factory and they can heat/vacuum suck it to shape.
So, which one should I choose?
