I was with @user89089 throughout the brags, the calling dudes 5 years younger than him "sonny", the "too busy being sweet to write a book about being sweet", the name drops of tite fixie crews, and the rest. That said, if every dude who talks about banging chicks evaporated instantly it would be fine with me.

Agreed. The ear hair I had in my 20s was glorious.

Dude, today's commute orz

A white BMW, angry at me for riding in the primary position even though there was a giant green
fucking "sharrow" that I was riding directly over sped by me honking and brushing my sleeve with his dumb car. It was even a fucking 4 lane street and the lane next to me was empty. It has been hours and I am still mad.

Then, a little later, I had to dodge a dude on an electric monowheel thing who was wobbling around while smoking a vape. He also had a neckbeard so I guess he was going for the trifecta. I almost respect his hustle.

EDIT: I just realized that he did not have a fedora but instead a skate helmet. He should have had one of those fedora helmets (m'cyclist). I am sure he was one of those fedora helmets.

Oh also, as any of the old-time fixie skidders racing track know, whip skidding is one of the main techniques used in keirin races. It helps you go faster.

I do believe I pointed out precisely why they broke in my earlier posts- so I conclude that...

You said they broke from "pure torque" from seated skids but also mentioned going off of 4 stair drops. I think well-known forum youngster, @Skülly, was thinking maybe it was more drops than sit down skiddery that had your frames crack.

That said, I love this thread. I, personally, am too busy chatting shit on the internet to live ¯\(ツ)/¯

These dudes just bombing the fuck out of all hills in this town are rad.

But then prescriptive linguists who worship The Elments of Style and think that english language and grammar is a fixed thing literally don't like it.

They sit in on the edge of their seats, daring anyone to use the passive voice.

I like their sauce.

@frankenbike fyi we all wear leg warmers. It is the only way to rid yourself of calf arthritis. Everybody knows that. Fucking rookies amirightguyz?

It is for this reason that my pride and joy is a dented track frame from the 70s with chipped paint and miche components. I do my best to not fling it on any nice bikes. That said my brake cable has been dented to the point of replacement twice in a couple of months.

Montauk was a very good novel and the place sounded nice. Have not visited, however. I have seen a documentary on The Jersey Shore that leads me to believe that it isn't the place for me.

...to fast too ride...

There needs to be a special class on how to properly stack bikes in the bike car of the train. Or maybe a traffic school situation for when somebody comes and puts handlebar to handlebar.

it is a set of wheels, a smirk, a jacket, and a half-link chain away from being fine.

Do you think weedeater isomerize before eating or do you think they are into the health benefits of thc-a?

Sometimes babies are ugly, dude.

Just checking in. How did that go for you?

BTW the current situation with Leslie Smith, project spearhead, and the UFC railroading her out of town after her opponent misses weight really bugs me. I realize that the majority of Trump's electoral base is UFC fighters but, jesus, organize already.

Coincidently my commute* home last night involved a pit stop at Hotel Utah to enjoy a couple of their shot and a "beer" specials.

* appease the thread title gods

On further inspection: Is he wearing 2 belts? Does he have pants and then some pants-chaps. Sorry I mean trousers.

Those forks look pretty cool. Also living that no braks no foot retention lyf. Otherwise I don't see anything of note.

you would 100% be living in a leaning tower and electric scootering all around town.

missing tht one miche seatpost though.

That Create up there ^^^^^ is a masterpiece.

was just going to come post that. Pretty rad. I wanted more bible stoners less space stoners but I guess there is room in my heart for both.

This morning I did the thing where I took the slightly earlier train that goes slightly faster and skips my usual train station. I took the opportunity to get off at Palo Alto station and ride the 25 minutes to work. Beautiful morning, pleasant bike-friendly roads with traffic blocks and cetera. Apparently silicon valley richies are into smooth pavement and bikable tree-lined streets. Arrived a little early and a little happier.

Also re last page: Now that I am older I like the sun and, often, people. It is funny because in my twenties both were violently untrue.
