Tuesday night I get the call from bobejin:  “dude, what the shit! It’s Tuesday night, why haven’t you posted anything yet? I know  you were on a road trip this weekend” then I proceeded to ignore him and sit back on the chair in my driveway with a can of Tecate and watch the pretty girls walk by.
The truth of [...]

I’ve said it before (this always predicates me saying “I’ll say it again.”) and I’ll say it again:  he is not a mesh hat.  he was not fodder for rip-off artists at white trash beach superstores.  He was Von fucking Dutch.  Kenny Howard, dammit.
In his own words, “I make a point of staying right at [...]

pro sports is my game.  i eat the wins.  i kill the poor.  the losers are toilet paper.  the fans scream.  the winner is me.  i win.  vote with my dollar.  we are the ones who play.  others lose the wad.  sympathy = loser.  winner = hamburger.  i win with ketchup.
here comes the weather.  here [...]

Got home at a good time. Not too early in the afternoon, but not too late either. Played with my daughters. Dinner was a bowl of chili. It was good.
A shot of Pelinkovac, a can of beer. Then helmet, the shoes, and the bike. Bell. Sidis, and Fondriest. The door, the resounding click as [...]

When I work from home, I watch what’s going on outside. Dope boys come and go from the house across the street. He seems to be the steady supplier for many. I often wonder what drug he sells. His kids come over here to get their bikes fixed. Not once have they ever thanked us. [...]

it’s weekend as fuck over here.  time to get cracking.
never pick up hitch hikers.  DO pick up beer.  and while you’re at it, pick up some cigs, and since you’ve come this far, you may as well just go ahead and rent some videos.  do it, sissy.

celebrate the re-launch of this site.  i could spend [...]

in keeping with Snake’s theme
It’s all about the Attitude

Thanks Missy.

So Rock’s Dead and Flyod’s racing for Bahati Foundation Team. Never saw that one coming. I figured Floyd would be answering a few questions for Inspector Clouseau right about now or giving up racing to work for The Geek Squad, seeing as he’s dabling in IT these days…
Landis will serve two roles – as [...]

This is going to be a pretty weak post. Mostly because the riding is off the hook right now in the desert southwest and I have better shit to do than type. So here it goes:
This might be the link of the week so far, keep hitting refresh notahipsterbecause.com.
A few years ago I had the pleasure [...]

First up is boombaird who chimed in with regards to Hitler getting his grubby hands on everything.It turns out that the MI5 was actually worried that these fine fair “Hitler Youth” might be on reconnaissance efforts in the early days of the onslaught. Another headline read “Nazis must be spyclists”. Such wit for 1937.

Interesting. Full [...]

….when you get home from a hard ride and you can hardly think straight and the adrenaline is still pumping and you gotta let the dogs out and you need food and you’re looking at your text messages and about 20 other things are going through your head……
At this exact moment, that’s how I feel. [...]

Sometimes it is not about the ride, distance or difficulty…it is simply about the respect of the kit.  Not only the kit, but the attention to the tire pressure. The old guy obviously respects his kit and the pressure due to the fact that my friend saw him check and recheck the pressure in each [...]

See all that sun? It’s going to be glorious outside today and I am stuck in here. All day. From 10a-10p. And everyone on facebook is posting pictures of being outside.

Everyone’s out riding. Enjoy it. Spring is coming. I can feel it. The kids on our street are outside playing. They’ll all be banging [...]

This week, for the first time in 2 years, I got on an airplane without a bike. It felt kind of weird, if not just plain uncomfortable. But there I was, standing in the Reno airport, snowboard under my arm and ready to tackle some Sierra snow. It’s not often that i leave home without a bike (or two) [...]

On a scale of 1 to 10, I’d fuck ‘em. Make it a great day!

Yeah, that should help. Mmmmmonday!

I’m sick. And sore. I have a cough and am all snotty and shit. My doc called in some cough syrup (minus the hydrocodone). It seems to be helping. A little.
So I’ve missed a long ride this week. Was off the bike 3 days. Who really cares? Is it really going to make a [...]

Toying with the idea of selling the Landshark. (no I’m not) busted my winter wheel, time to clean her up and put the GOOD wheels on ‘er. (…to have and to hold) take the glamour shots in departing sunlight (the frame doesn’t fit) and degrade this legendary bicycle with a Seattle craigslist post.
