Half a dozen people stopped to comment on the rig... one guy said he felt bad for driving his car and should have ridden his bike.

Utes are the new fixed gears... :)

Guess I have been ahead of the curve on this one for some time.

Today, it must be around 90% humidity. Sweating balls. Although, I can't complain. Last week was in the 40's.

also talked to Adam at stanridge speed again. I get so overly excited looking at his stuff that it's hard not to drop the deposit right then and there

A Stanridge is probably going to be my next bike, whether it's road, cross or track.

Today I: rode a minidrome for the first time. The MC asked me if I had ever ridden a fixed gear bike before. "Nope! This is my first time!" trollface.jpg

Boring video, but the commentary from my friends/coworkers is pretty golden. P.s. this was at work. :D

You do know that this is just grinding/sanding the weld down smooth, right?

craigcraigcraig 05-03-12 05:43 PM

sure smoother but do you not see the scratches on the frame from an abrasive surface?

Sherblock 05-03-12 05:45 PM

Am I the only one who isn't a fan of LOW?

Maybe I should get myself a welder and some bicycle tubing and mismash them together into a bike (note to self: better have negative sloping top tube) and give handouts to notable street riders emi brown who's just a short drive away from me and pay off blogs like prolly & PC to feature LOTS of pictures and praise and mucho street cred for my brand image. Maybe throw some nice paint on and colorways on them too. By the time everything is hyped up and I have a following, I think I'll have had honed in my welding skills enough.

Oh yeah, overreact to the kagero's design for trademark enfringement and just for hahas make buyers wait 8+ months for delivery.

Leukybear's turn now. Help me come up with a brand name, I'll pay you back with freebies.

Today I went on a fun group ride. A few recumbent riders usually come out, and today one of them took it to the next level with this:
