Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

I like this plan but I'll probably just swap it to my Kilo since it's just for the rollers this winter.

Get ready for SoCal living Scrod.

Seriously though, safe travels, man. To the people in San Diego: Scrod accepts Miller Highlife as currency. He also like his coffee with just a little cream, no sugar.

WHERE DO I BUY TOOBS NOW?!

Today I finally unclogged my shower drain. Three days with out a shower and now that I can shower, I sorta don't want to.

thanks for the word of warning.. kinda forgot about the ramifications if things go poorly for some reason..

she is an intern, and we don't work in the same department so that does negate some of the risk.

she's pretty chill too (so far).

After being swamped with freelance work for what seems like months, im finally getting back to work on some personal illustrations (cycling related duh). Projects like this remind me why I wanted to be an illustrator/designer to begin with. If only I could find someone to pay me to do this all day long.EDDY "The Cannibal" Merckx!

Bernard "The Badger" Hinault
Laurent "The Professor" Fignon
Greg "Le Monster" Lemond

Lastly, I started a series of Eddy Merckx Greatest moments. This is Stage 17 of the 1969 Tour. Eddy attacked over the top of the Col du Tourmalet, he then soloed the last 130km to with the stage by over 8 minutes.
