Villin touring
Medici Pro-Pista
Windsor commuter/drunkbike
KHS Alite1000 MTB


Funny thing is... the more bikes I buy/build/whatever, the more I love every one of em. Ride the tourer around for awhile, then marvel at the unabashed quickness of the track-- it's an absolute scalpel. Back on the tourer and I'm on the ****ing leather sofa of the B17 looking around at the world, arms wide, breathing easy-- it's the bomber. After all the track and long rides I've done, I've haven't sweated and worked so hard as the mountain bike ride a few weekends back (with guys who went and did another 20 more technical miles, jesus****ingchrist). The commuter/drunkbike is a 42/17 fix'd, Biopace'd, moustache'd, rack'd, basket'd, speedblend'd monstrosity.


When I was eleven I'd get bored and bike south and east of my neighborhood (Brandon, FL) to find the huge television antenna towers. It'd take me all day and I couldn't do it enough.


Love love love love love bikes.
