Vegas is nothing like Southern California and I'm not a teenage drunkard.

Just built up my first good fixed gear. 2007 Raleigh One Way. I wanted a fixie, and suddenly I find all the parts I need to build one. Do need to buy some tires for it, 700x23 white tires look pretty strange in a frame that could fit 700x45 easily. Haven't had much chance to ride it yet, but fun so far.

It looks like a shaved cat. Get some bigger tires on that thing.

Those old Nishikis are pretty cool. I love my Alien ACX 1 X 7.

I still need to cut down the bars and seatpost, and it's at the LBS right meow getting the hydro lines shortened. Hopefully I'll get a chance to ride it on Wednesday.

Kilo team to replace my crushed gold kilo. I like it so far, bars could go down a smudge, and levers could go up a smudge, but it's fine for now.
