		<description>It&#039;s true that carbon can fail catastrophically.  The best thing you can do is thoroughly inspect joints and high stress areas before and after a ride.  If you notice microcracking you can generally preemptively repair the damage by buying a small &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.carbon-fiber.us&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;carbon fiber kit&lt;/a&gt;</description>

		<description>Fatty -

You need a break from the blog, bro.

Just step back.  Slowly.

Run re-runs until after Labor Day, or until you come up with something remotely or funny or interesting.  

Not hating on you, big fan.

		<description>If the kids were home, they&#039;d be worried why their Dad was rolling on the floor...laughing and shaking his head, wondering when Fatty was going to write about the perils of carbon fiber clothing.

Fatty, how are you going to top this one?

It may not be possible.</description>

		<description>Dear Mr. Fat cyclist.
How much carbon fiber would it take to meet the Minimum Daily Requirement of Fiber.
Thank you in advance.

		<description>I have continued my research and have learned the following: 

1. The top tube on a Scott Addict does not contain ball bearings.

B. The owner of the Local Bike Shop does not share my enthusiasm for research.

3. The policeman&#039;s taser gun does not ignite carbon fiber.</description>

		<description>Listen, Fatty, there is still one thing I am hung up on.

Do you boil the fibers strictly on time - 6 minutes - or do you toss them against the ceiling and see if they stick?

Please hurry with an answer, both of my brothers will be over for dinner, and I want to be a perfect host.</description>
