that sucks man, glad youre ok. I got hit head on by a bike cop over the summer. ****er took off.

yeah no harm to me or my bike so not overly pissed. Did put a little damper on the job hunting, though.

Hey Luke: I talked to my boy and he does want to take that spare IRO off your hands.

Sweet. I guess I'll let y'all know when the big shipment comes in. Yay bikes!

Good time last night, by the way. I'm liking the Twin Peaks weekly get together. And the beer drinking, of course. And Audrey Horne, Shelly Johnson, etc.

I had fun too. I'm glad you guys enjoy my humble home. I think Shiv was right. Definitely donuts next week.

Where are we pregaming the pretzel ride tonight?

I still need to get my ass in gear and come to a pretzel ride. I'll just buy some snyder's of hanover and have my own little vegan section.

I've been a cop's hit-and-run victim as well. That's a lot of scene points for us. Even better was when a taxi reached out of his window and punched me while I was riding up stopped lanes...and a cop saw it and busted him.

Awesome.

haha sorry, but that's an amazing mental image. My all time best was when I was riding through my wonderful north philly neighborhood and a crack head tried to clothesline me off my bike. It was like 3 am and pretty much the funniest thing ever.

so news has it that xkevx has busted up two bikes getting hit by two cars in two days.
dunno if he'll be at pretzel ride, but some positive cheer might be in order.

its up to two bikes now? geesh.

Awww. Poor Kev. I wish I had a beater I didn't care about so that he could go for a hat trick. But I don't. Alas.

Bike busting: Boo.

Kevin doesnt need to go on he pretzel ride. I saw his bike last night and its all the pretzel he'll want to see for a while.

Andy said "Ive been workin' on bikes for 30 years and ive never seen anything like this"

so what exactly happened?

are there pictures? I think of heard of it, his bike got hit by a septa bus right?

Walking out of the tech center I see some dude taking a crap load of pictures of my bike. Turns out the inquirer is doing an article on safety at Temple... and my bike hanging on a fence is going to be the main picture?

Anyone have a spare pair of Sylvan pedals they'd be willing to part with for a reasonable price? Preferably track, but who am I to be picky? I just found out why my foot's been hurting. Somehow I've managed to bend the lip part of my non-track Sylvans down so the outside of my foot is riding on an uncomfortable hunk of metal. Owie. And I don't feel like paying $30 for brand spanking new ones right now. So yeah. Anyone?

Stella/Zach got his bike septabussed recently too. ruthless.

(+1 if you get this: "SEPTABUUUUSSS!!")

im glad he sold that raleigh I sold him. I might of cried if that got hit.

Might HAVE cried if that HAD GOTTEN hit. Grammar counts.

tony. I hate you.





<3

he keeps getting hit doesnt he?

weird

POSSIBLE THEFT THWARTED BY RYAND!

this rules.
Ryan just called me because he saw a suspicious situation where a kid was carrying an alumimum track bike near 8th and dickinson with a pretzel and crossbones sticker. i recognized the bike from the description as Blayer's Langster and called him to see if it had been stolen. it turns out Blayer had just sold it to the kid Ryan saw but how cool is it that we could have recovered the bike that easily.

lessons learned: 1) keep your eyes open and 2) wear your pretzel and crossbones stickers with pride.

I want a pretzel and crossbone sticker!
