back to love…

Today I had one of those rides that makes you fall in love with bicycles all over again.
Loaded up the fixed gear and headed out to good ol reliable Suwanee Greenway. It was drizzling when I left but I was pretty sure it wouldn’t turn into a downpour. Since I have been taking the fixed [...]

Nigel and duskriding SGW

First off, you need to know that Nigel Sylvester’s Gatorade BMX demo session will be at Mama’s in Buford tomorrow at 5pm. You need to be there. I will be there. I’m going to be a smartass and ride my fixed gear there. Big ups to Mystic Negro for the heads up on the tour [...]

Solo Mass

I always remember that it is Critical Mass about 40 mins before the thing I supposed to start, and I live over an hour from the start, so usually I end upmissing all the fun. Today, when I finally realized it was a Mass day, I decided I woould just head over to Suwanee Greenway [...]

Photocat Race pics

Photo Cat! Alley Cat Race and Photo Shoot!
7 photographers at 7 checkpoints captured the hot, sweaty and fast Atlanta bike scene!
I wasn’t in the race because I was drunkface elsewhere, but you really should head over to THIS LINK and check out the snaps. Looks like everyone had a great time!
Man I wish I actually [...]

okay so, the pre-party

As I said yesterday, I was only able to make it to the pre-party portion of the bike polo/alleycat weekender that is happening in Atlanta right now. We arrived at the venue about 10ish…it was pretty cool that you could actually bring your bike in instead of having to lock up on the street. On [...]

weekend wrap up

okay man, I hit the Greenway twice this weekend on the fixed. a little over 15 miles total. Not much but its a pretty good start. My thighs are killing me. I think it is from the places where I have to put backpressure on the pedals for speed control. This is the third time [...]

SGW wetness

Just a short ride at Suwanee Greenway today. The path was waaaaay more wet from the brief rain than I thought it would be. I’m sketched out about riding the wooden/boardwalk sectioins when they are wet because they are crazy slippery, and I have already ate it bigtime on the boards once…destroying an MP3 player [...]

another one

Holy crap I actually went for another ride this month!
Lugged the fixed gear over to Suwanee Greenway. I had to park at a different spot than I usually do. The new spot is smack in the middle of the length of the trail. See, this was my first time at SGW on the fixed so [...]

ultimately it was stress relief that got me back on…

Today I got so frustrated with the stupid Microsoft Visual Web Developer 2008 program, which DOES’T FUCKING WORK FOR ME EVER, that I needed to go do something…anything else for a while.  Since the fixed is now computer equipped, I headed out for bit and logged my first ride of the year.  Actually I think [...]

disgusted

Yes I am completely disgusted with myself for not having ridden at all this year. i apologize to myself for being so lame.
I’ll get around to it…really.
