Good Times, Good Skitches, and Christmas
Days seem to be busier this week. Im happy about it. I got a full 2 pages in before I ended my day by having all my chain ring bolts fall out. Yeah, that happened. I’ve kept to riding the track bike for work, I enjoy it more, even on the long distance drops. Hills are seemiling becoming less of a issue. I have actually been asking motorist for rides up hills. I was skeptical at first but...

Flats, Flats, & More Flats

That is the number of flat tires I encountered today. 5 tubes where used, 3 patches and one semi used tire. All for my rear tire. On my fourth one I had noticed the air was low, AGAIN??!!, and I was like screw it, Im heading to a shop. Citizens chain was not too far, so I stopped and pumped my tire up again to roll there.

“You have no idea how badly you are destroying my ego by passing me on that fixed gear”
Thats what the person on the road bike said as I passed them on the hill out of Sausalito. I replied back, saying I also ride road bikes, haha. Today I woke up way too early so I decided to go take a ride out on a old favorite, The Paradise Loop. I had never gone on a Friday and I must say, it was...

I want
No Klein for me
The bike is a Klein Quantum Pro 2001 model. I got it this pass weekend at the SF bike Expo for a unbeliveable price. Seller told me it has some “Cosmetic Damage” and that was it. Ehhhhh They was more that I saw but I figured with some TLC the bike would be running. I was wrong.

Some ex messenger had came around yelling at some guy walking his bike. Dude was on something, and he dodge into my way. I said watch out and he started talked shit. I warned him not to say anything to me, and what did he do? follow me and...
MASH SF Halloween Race
So this weekend was Halloween. After a extremely slow day at work, (its getting worse) I rode over to the Polo Field for the MASH Halloween Alleycat. The race start were at the fly fishing ponds behind the Polo fields. As the race was about to start of course the drizzle and rain started. For anyone that does not know, MASH races generally are fixed gear only, very short yet blazingly fast, hard,...
