Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

Oh, i wasn't taking a stab at ya for listening to double pedal jesus metal. I was totally just "ughing" about the band. Growing up in the 80's made me hate hate hate religion. In the 80's everything was satanic and scared the **** out of parents. It was like the 1950's and the Red Scare. So any monotheistic stuff "grinds my gears", haha. i lived with a foster family once that made me live in a tent in the backyard because i had a Natas(Kaupas, the pro skateboarder) Skateboard. At least i grew up in SoCal. I thought it was pretty awesome when i was a kid. It wasn't til years later that i realized that they were evil people for making a little kid live in the backyard, haha

Today I finally had my Wabi bike built up. Went to Retrogression and was able to watch and learn as Scrod built it. So excited to ride it.

You missed a good show. Northlane & Fit for a king killed it.

I'm definitely not religious, I believe in the flying spaghetti monster.

Today I went to a hipster bar and ordered some nachos, what I got was the saddest excuse for nachos I've ever seen. Imagine a handful of chips thrown onto a plate with sour cream, cheese and like four jalapeno slices. I'm still upset.

Today I changed out the crank, BB, chainrings, and front derailleur on my Surly. Removed the 175mm Tiagra hollowtech crank 50/39/30 for my old 180mm Deore XT m730 42/34/26 rings. Dirt riding should be smooth sailing now. If only I had the matching derailleurs
