Rides and Races - Tampa/ Da 'Burg

it works.

haha. oh man so dumb. I love it.

FLAsh 4 lyfe.

I don't know Luke...needs to be better. This was a quick 1st attempt. Luke took his tire to the threads after this. It blew out later on as we were riding back to the house.

Yes! First viewer! I remember the time I thought I'd run tubulars and blew one out skidding down a parking garage. Sometimes I wish I was still that stupid.

I was just telling the story about how Luke out-skidded me today twice for some reason... I feel sorry for the people I talk to.

Luke is already claiming victory during the Fixed Fight skid contest.

Yea Boi!

Luke...what are you doing holding on to the handlebars in that video? Wuss.

If you guys plan on riding in clearwater later on this week...I could probably meet at like 6 since I would be riding from st. pete after work. I have also skated that sidewalk by the park about 8 years ago.

House hunting on Friday? Meet at 5?

Dude I was doing double rubix cube action. One in both hands... its kind of hard to see.

I think we are heading back there tomorrow. 6 is fine. That would be awesome dude.

And yea... on Friday i'm totally there. Meet at Northeast again? Or somewhere else?

Killer. Manana at 6 at coachman park? 5 on Friday at NE Cycles. By the by Luke, my landlord is remodeling an apartment and is going to need some help...you should come work a little and pay for your gas and drinks out here. Or my drinks since you are underage...

I'm sick...I barely finished my day at work today and I'm about to crawl into bed now. I hope this is some 24hr BS so I can still ride tomorrow. Updates to come if I make it through the night.

i would possibly be interested in riding in clearwater

i had to watch this at home; youtube is banned at work. Nice.

No dun die Todd! Drink some OJ and shizzle. And some green tea.

Corey... maybe you can hook up with Matt and ride? Dude you should totally come though. its going to be skidalicious.

It's offficial, I'm sick. Too much work to stay home, I'll see how I feel when I get home. To those that are coming out, I'll check the boards before I leave work. I'm sure I'll start to feel better once I get to work and get some fluorescent lighting on me. Ughhh.

I'll ride Friday at 6!

<-- interested in a ride this weekend

Today: Still feel like ****, but oh well. I'm in for today at 6. I should be alright to ride to Coachman. I'll just sit in the grass and take pics the whole time.

Friday: I hope I feel better by tomorrow. I'm in for a ride in Clearwater Friday as well starting at 6.

Sat/Sun: Other then doing some alleycat planning I'm free. I'll ride St. Pete or wherever at whatever time.

**** yea so much riding!

Can't wait until today. Matt, if you get this, I can't bring those pedals. I forgot that they are on my conversion... which is somewhere in Tallahassee right now. I'm sorry dude. Are you coming out Corey? I can drive if anybody needs a ride home afterwards.

Robb... finally you come out of your cave. Where have you been? I'll call you tomorrow once i'm coming down there.

I'll be down for riding on Sunday also. I have work until 4 though, so whatever works out for everyone else.

FLAsh!

Oh yea. haha. Holy **** that looks amazing. I hate everything now.

Did you guys do a continuous hike or what?

Jamey: Messico nuovo

Robb: Ciò somiglia a grande Robb divertente. Odio che l'ho mancato.

Translation -

Jamey: Mexico new

Robb: That it resembles to large amusing Robb. I hate that I was lacking it.

soo....who did who?

Wait, so you're meeting at NorthEast at 6? I gotta run to Orlando for the day but I might be back in time. Clearwater is pretty much not gonna happen though.

Corey is driving to Largo...we're riding from there to Coachman in Clearwater and meeting Luke there. Matt is apparently riding in his snake skin shoes from St. Pete to Coachman to meet us all. Clearwater IS going to happen.

THAT JUST HAPPENED!

I know man, I was just messing with you. When are you going to make it out one day/night? All I know is your avatar and those cyclo pics.

i wish i could meet up today. boo!!!

I know, it sucks. I work Sun-Thurs nights, so I'm never around until after midnight at the earliest. That's why I was excited about the possibility of Friday night in St. Pete. Right now is also the middle of road racing season, so most weekends I'm off getting my a** kicked. This Sat/Sun it's in Orlando, though I might skip Sunday if I'm not feeling up for it, so I'll check back in here.

If you ever see me on the road I'm usually wearing the hat that's in the avatar. That's why I put it on there.

Downtown Clearwater tonight was fun. We got a late start so we lost daylight pretty quick. I'll upload some picks in a few. I'm still sick so bare with me. Thanks to Luke, Corey, Matt and his lady for coming out. Good times had by all.

Here's a little video of Corey doing what he does best...The Tricksta!

wait, so you rode in Clearwater today? What's going on Friday?

<<< Soo confused...

Official notice by O'Brien:

6:30 pm meet at North East Cycles tomorrow night. A night of Victory Gin, Thoughcrime (which will have a lot of Big Brother bashing) and telescreen throwing contest.

Out.

i should be able to meet up at 6:30 tonight.

What's going on tonight? I love thoughtcrime!

I'm going to bust ass to get there by 6:30. We'll see how traffic is over the bridge.

I was late last time by like 3 hours, so you have +10 anti-late charm granted to you.

I'm out for tonight. I should have stayed home yesterday, but a few of you Burgs showed the love for Clearwater so I had to be there. I need some rest and will be staying in tonight. Have fun guys. FYI - The Public Enemy show is tonight at Jannus.

If I feel better on Saturday, I plan on being in St. Pete by noon to tie up some loose ends for the race and get some riding in. If anyone's interested, let me know.

I'm definitely thinking about coming. Anyone know how long the ride will be or whatever?

Allright I'm heading over there as soon as i get home. I'll be the goofy kid w/a green pista

Yay!

I think we are planning to crash a group ride and hang out with them, so i'm wearing ze stretchy pants.

See you guys there.

I am wearing no pants.

No crashing the group ride...I went over there on my lunch break and they said they used to do "fixie friday" rides but it kind of died out. I told the one kid there who sometimes rides a fixed that he could join us though.

Ah ok.

We can get our groove on alone then.

Ohhhhhhh yeaaaaaa.

NO PANTS!

In the jungle, the mighty jungle, the lion sleeps... toniiiight.

Oh... I'm considering this. It's like, how important is health anyway?
