sweet video

I wouldn’t normally post about just a video, but this one is so clean and has great riding. But deep down, its all because we don’t have trails or a scene like that! How nice it would be! August in 50 frames per second from Dave King on Vimeo. P.S. My brakes are coming off, [...]

brakes?

So I got a new pair of kicks. I got some Beloe Miguel’s. So far they feel a bit narrow, but I think they will stretch out. When I ordered my shoes, I also picked up a new brake lever and cable to put some stoppers on my bike. I haven’t had brakes in quite [...]

sunday at the park [photos]

As promised, I got to work on the photos from Sunday. It had been way too long since I had unleashed the Canon on the park (or anywhere for that matter). Enough of me chit-chatting! John is getting comfortable with quarters. And I like it!Stephen hits the hip really smooth and everyday gets higher. Nosed [...]

the weekend

This weekend was pretty sweet! Not really sure why, I had a wedding on Saturday that took up the majority of the day… Friday John, Stephen and myself rode the park. And afterwords went to World Grotto, and although, the experience there kinda sucked, I had a sweet time! Stephen even bought me a beer! [...]

wheel build #4

This past weekend I was able to get the spokes and nipples I needed to build up the new back wheel for my cruiser. A while back I bought a used odyssey hazard casette from a guy on bikeguide.org. And just before that, I traded my old front wheel for a set of rims and [...]

i hate people

On my way home this afternoon, I was cruising as usual and had just hopped up on the sidewalk to avoid a busy intersection and I see this guy on a mountain bike. No big deal, I get over and assume we’ll just pass eachother. Of course, that was wishful thinking! This stupid ass freaks [...]

sold it!

As of today, I no longer own a motorcycle. I sort of have mixed emotions about it, but it is way for the best! Now I can take that money and put towards getting my taxes caught up… The sale went over without a hitch. A nice couple bought it for their grandson, who apparently [...]

tony hawk cares

Shauna and I went to Target tonight. We had to get toilet paper. We perused around with nothing in mind to purchase. We walked by the bike section and I saw something that is really scary! These Tony Hawk bmx bikes might as well have been glued together by a 2nd grader. QC my ass, [...]

some bicycle history

Well, kind of. I saw this over on Gizmodo and knew that I wanted to share it. The video is about 5 minutes long, but there is so much awesome stuff spread throughout. My favorite is the giant bike not far past the half-way point. This makes me want to make some kind of crazy [...]

if its not broke, mess with it

Welcome to the 3rd change in a few weeks! (Or is it 4th?) I liked the theme before this one, as well as the one before that. And truthfully, even the one before that (on Apple’s iWeb). But it is just in my nature to explore and see what else there is. This time I [...]
