boo hoo, does baby want his bottle again. i have had my fare share or skate boarding snow boarding and bmx falls, some met with me in the hospital as well. but using beer to soften the blow, come on. like stated before you might not be in that situaton if you had control of the situation.

Flippin Sweet 02-09-06 09:31 PM

No digital camera! :( I'm borrowing my friend's tonight or tomorrow and pics will be up tomorrow!! :D I've already gone out and played on it, even with an inch of snow on the ground. It is the ****!!

haha jesus you're an ass. A) i've never been in an accident while drunk B) i've never gotten drunk to dull pain C) i almost never even take pain medicine D) i don't think anyone cares about how tough any of us are

dosoner 02-09-06 09:43 PM

color me guilty

humancongereel 02-09-06 09:44 PM

yeah, i think evanyc was just joking around.

flippin' sweet...that's one thing i miss about idaho. it snowed there. it just rains here. i'm not a big fan of snow...but a few times, i've just wanted to ride in the snow.

Flippin Sweet 02-09-06 09:47 PM

Yeah, not the most optimal of conditions, but pretty. And I can hone my skills riding in it. I found the perfect place to practice trackstands/skidding, etc: the practice football field. Once the snow melts, I'm there. :)

humancongereel 02-09-06 09:48 PM

do it in the snow. no one will drive there (will they?), and the snow will be slick for skidding and just...yeah. be fun.

It was more fun going past all the bums around logan's circle. when I ride with no hands I like to sit up and motion my arms back and forth like I'm running - gets some strange looks from people.

extra points if you're riding really fast behind something waste high so they don't see the bike at first.

lumenredundas 02-09-06 09:51 PM

never said i was tough, that was you. and why thank you, maybe you didnt get my arogance from the title of (im just better than you). but you said the booze would soften the blow, which implies that you advocate alcohol comsomption so if some one were to get hurt the pain would be less. if you ride smart and ride within your abilties, with a clear head, the chances of you getting hurt are slim too none.

take responcibilty for your action and words(that goes to everyone)

This thread simply needs more:http://www.cardsquad.com/images/2005/10/guinness.gif

you 02-09-06 10:03 PM

Oh man, now they have sparks plus! It sounds ****ing terrible.

I've fallen off my bike sober far more times than I have while drunk.

humancongereel 02-09-06 10:06 PM

what is sparks plus? more alkiehol?

are you drunk? you're typing like you are and apparently reading like it too. i never stated that i advocated alcohol consumption. i made an observation that a wreck would hurt more if you were sober than if you were drunk. does that mean i'm promoting drinking? no. don't put words in my mouth and assume that you know more about me than you do.

why do so many xstraightxedgex kids annoy people...

ohhhh, that's right.

screamingveg 02-09-06 11:38 PM

My drinking team obviously has a cycling problem.

You guys need to stop that ****e.

yeah, i like do the running in slo-mo thing too... it's such an obvious gag, but it's such a good one it doesn't matter. i tend to ride no hands a lot, and my buddy always makes fun of me b/c i swing my shoulders back and forth and it looks like i'm groooovin' :D

hee hee.

1) evan: i was always more of a reversal of man kind of straightedge kid than i was earth crisis.

2) straightedge came around one night, push came to shove, and we were down to fight...

3) i feel like suddenly this message board became salt lake city circa 1997.

4) tonight i spent my last $5 (well, the last paper money i had, as the lq doesn't take plastic) on 24 oz. of sierra nevada pale ale, which, in case it needs to be pointed out, is punk as fXXXk.

5) that's clever, how i used the X's in the swear up there.

mrkott3r 02-10-06 12:02 AM

no drink riding stories from me, since the journey home takes me past a permanent friday/saturday night RBT, and riders get down for drink riding. I dont want a fine/lose my license. But thats just me

amen! how about former members of alfonsin? my fave sxe band ever.

nekochin 02-10-06 12:12 AM

i had a 40oz of "country club" before the ride home. no "energy enhancers" like saccharine sparks nor the flavor of a saporro. tough back nine though.

i always wanted to like them more than i actually did like them, but their stuff on the split with bread and circuits is pretty decent. now THERE was a band...

evanyc 02-10-06 07:29 AM
