Today I went out to dinner with my family, and I had lobster pie. I let an atomic bomb go in that restaurant restroom.

Look sprint. I purchased it so I could use it as my beater / commuter bike and threw on all my spare parts I had laying around (saddle, peddles, brakes).

This way I can have a dedicated track bike without having to swap out the wheels and brakes all the time since I commute with it too:

I just weighed in my saddle/seatpost. 1 pound, 12 ounces :/ It's a Regal on this crappy Kalin. I'm thinking maybe a 1990 Flite re-issue and a Thomson.

I'm really bad at picking saddles.

Today I was riding to brunch with the lady and ran over so glass. I stopped to find a 5mm long shard of glass stuck in my rear tire.

It happened right in front of one of our friend's apartment, and later today she told us that there was a party last night and people were smashing glass on the ground.

FUUUUUUUU college kids.

Last night I went to see the premier of To Live or Ride in LA. It is basically a really long "fixie edit" that didn't do enough to keep my attention very long, so I left before seeing the whole thing. I also did not expect it to be a whole fixie glorification/art gallery event.

Today at the co-op I disassembled a donated(busted) Caad 9 and destroy the frame =D

Today I went on a ride with the family, laughed at my dad for his bike being much to small then got bored and decided to ride home myself forgetting my house is on the highest part of town :[. Got back finally and decided I need to get a smaller rear cog then went to hang with friends and destroyed them in poker.

Today I am watching on twitter as my friends try to track down a stolen bike. It's a very tarcky, recognizable bike (has even been made fun of on BSNYC a few years back) so it's been fascinating to hear about the sightings and how many times it has already changed hands. It's crazy to hear reports like "bike was sold for $27 to guy in a DirectTV van" or "bike was spotted; saw people trying to saw ulock off of it" etc. The cops have been surprisingly helpful because we've been able to get reliable sightings. Apparently as of this morning we now have an address, cops have been called, not sure what's going to happen next. The guy it was stolen from is a sweetheart; I really hope he gets his bike back.

PS if anyone in chicago sees a grey bianchi pista with pink deep v's, hubs, saddle, and grips, let me know.

That's a great story. Keep us posted!
