oh...also, not specifically portland ss/fg related, but it's related to a portland fg rider (me), so....whatevs.

i asked about housing a while back, and got some input here....anyway, i found some housing, this is my second month there. just the other day my roommate told me she'd decided that her best friend was going to be moving into my room next month. needless to say, i'm none too happy....but anyway, i'm back on the search for a place to live. anyone got any leads? talked to tehz about looking for a place in january, but i'm none too sure just what's going on, and i'll be interested in any info anyone has.

Depending on pending employment I'm going to be moving to Portland early/mid January. If you haven't figured anything out by then drop me a line.

THE SPROCKETTES INTERNATIONAL DANCE-OFF & BENEFIT

w/ Sprockettes, Show Me the Pink, B.C.Clettes, and a bunch of other bike-related fun...

Nov. 17th, 6 pm, $5 @ 230 E. Burnside (Disjecta)

Sounds rad!

While two wrongs dont make a right, I'd sure want to take a dump on the floor as I left that house. No ideas on housing though, my situ is pretty stable (I'm on the lease).

yeah, i know rotting potatoes in hidden places will smell nice...i know a guy who ended up in this situation and pissed in the heating vents before leaving...i dunno. i'm going to try to exercise self-control.

oh, and the sprockettes thing, there's a bunch of stuff...there's an alleykitten among other things...i oughta be helping out with some of it (i know someone who's doing a lot with setting it up, i've been hanging out with one of the sprockettes a lot lately), but i don't know what i'm doing yet.

oh dude braingel has a shed he's trying to get me to move into. its free if you wash the dishes i hear. plus wireless

what? i'd do that. seriously...i haven't lived in a house with heat for a couple of winters, and i own next to nothing, so space is no issue.

off this last topic...i sometimes wonder what all your bikes look like so i can tell when you're locking next to me. hell, one of you may be at stumptown as i'm posting this....

me too! so lets post some pictures....here's mine.
i've said farewell to the road bike, so this is it, for the winter at least.




(i think the stem will be flipped after tonite, so the bars are lower)

mine's in my sig, but it's got a different stem and nitto bullhorns now.

those flipped bars look(ed) sexy.

So I wonder, does shoveling leaves back onto the yards of people who raked them into the bike lane count as some sort of criminal mischief? Cause I have a snow shovel and really want to go get these bastards that make 3 foot tall piles along a fairly busy road.

DO IT

tons of people got tickets again yesterday. not sure what the final count was, but by the time I ate lunch, 8 had gotten hit with them.
seems the barnum and balzer circus has geared itself back up into action.

handbrakeless riders watch out

where abouts is all this going down? downtown?

I've been rolling around my sister's neighborhood that last couple Sundays (hollywood? i think.. north of sellwood) on my motta and haven't gotten a second glance from passing cops.

yeah, it's all downtown. and I beleive 100% of the no-brakes tickets are coming from only these two cops.

I havent heard of anyone getting one by any other officers at least.

barnum kicks it right off the broadway bridge (west side)

seen balzer a couple times...but escaped! yay!

don't even begin to think yo know where this two are at haha.
i have seen beevis and butthead all the way out in tigard on barbur. i also was standing on 23rd next to my bike (it was locked up) and one of em rode by and he was just straight muggin.
it could be because i just had court like 2 weeks ago though.

just in case you forgot this alleycat is coming up! and it should be fun! you should all come!

speaking of bike events: anyone have details on any of the supposed events this weekend, following the big sprokettes bash? i hear of a beer scavenger hunt, among other awesome things...

Sorry, shoulda done my research first. Lazy me. All the info HERE:

Well it's not technically Portland, but I'm gonna do my first cross race on Sunday out in Hillsboro, hooray! Way sweet, I'm so excited. Also this dry weather rocks.

that eastside ride destruction whatevers has a weird flyer...do you have to race on a cruiser? does that tough guy ride a cruiser? that's not very tough. let me look again, does it have a bell and a basket?

and who the hell are greenscare victims? what the **** is greenscare anyway?

oh, okay.

god, my last post was really cranky. meh, i guess that's me.
