I took this pic of him during the race... this was the only time i saw him actually stop, and it was to take a horse sized dump on the hood of a hummer-limo, readjust his stockings and pose for this photo. He did all the other checkpoints while still on his bike and riding, including chugging a monster and doing the pushups/jumping-jacks(which he did upside down on his toptube).

I took the photo at a wierd angle, but hes actually 9 feet tall. He also made me take it in sepia tone and yelled the following as he sped off "F#ck tires and F#ck the 20th century!!!"

I'm still wearing mine regardless of the weather. That's 1/4 less fabric that needs to dry while I'm grumpily sitting in Temple's tech center after getting here and realizing all my classes were cancelled.

And while I am still thinking of it, are there any decent tunnels/stretches in philly for late night sprints? Forget what group it is, but there was that LA one that posted their midnight sprint/drag race/whatever competitions that look fun as all hell. Might be something fun to set up for once it gets warmer.

also, once I get the guns back from my girlfriend, who is up for drunken bicycle laser tag?

N delaware ave is pretty far out of the way I think. I'm thinking maybe the 5th st tunnel since the little downhill would provide for a nice lil speed boost. Any other ideas? Talked to some people at temple and they're down for like a sunday night sprints event so pretty sure I'll get it started sometime in may.

and a cop hit me today and ran, hells yes.

yeah the bastard was literally aiming right at me, I swung my bike around so he only clipped my back wheel a lil bit so I didn't fall. I guess my wintertime fixie riding where I was fishtailing the whole way to school finally paid off.

but still... it was a frigging cop. By the time I turned around to get a license plate # it was gone.
