FireSale & BBQ


This on Sunday!!! Don't forget, help the Kitchen out!!!

Bicycle Dreams


I cannot wait to see this.... plus there's a lot of great movies this year at the BFF. As well as, a ton of events and parties going on. Think of this as your heads up for next week. I'll be posting everyday, what is going on, and what we'll be doing, so keep your eye out for that. Just buy tickets now, I'm sure the all the programs will sell out. The best thing for me besides the huge day on Friday, is that Cubby Boob will have booth on Sunday at the Block party. You know that's where it will be goin down. CBNC!

Fyxation Tire


So, I burned through my Rando on my Affinity this week. I was gonna pick up thickslick to throw on, (I got em on my Bareknuckle and love them) when I remembered that I had a Fxyation tire, chillin in the bike closet for some time now. I decided to give it a spin. First impressions: Well, I like to run my tires fully inflated, some times overly. Can't do that with these. It likes to be at 90-100 psi. It says, it can take 110 psi, no it can't, not at all. I went through two tubes putting it up to 110psi. So, don't do that. Lesson learned. Next, they are loud when you skid, it might just because it's the first few days on it, but damn, it's loud. I don't mind that, brings a smile to my face. The Tire profile on the rim is a but much for me, but that might be because it's orange (it's a 28 as well) which I'm sure will grow on me. I'm gonna run it for awhile, and let you know what I think in few weeks or more....

Great edits.

I guess I'll have to do the Swedish Version, next summer. Andy, you gotta learn how to ride a track bike.

Encino...


I hate that I miss shit like this. Been rollin solo too much lately. Just cause I'm hosting events and showing up at races, doesn't mean I'm riding. Commuting to work is taking up most of that riding time. Looks like you guys have so much fun every Wednesday. Jealous.

Wear a helmet.


Please wear a helmet. My good friend Juan, was hit and run today. He was hit on Alvarado and Sixth st. around 1030am. If you know that hill, it's no joke. Three lanes full of traffic, semi-steep hill all trying to beat those real short lights on Alvarado, (this is the start to mine and Juan's commute everyday) he was hit going 25+mph, the only thing that happened to his bike was his non-driveside crankarm was ripped off at the spindle of the BB. Of course, he has road rash and a sore body, thank god he wore his helmet today. I implore you all to wear your helmet, I realize it should be choice, and not a law. For your friends and families sake, wear your fucking helmet. I'm glad your okay, big dog...


If, by any chance you saw this go down this morning or heard of it, and have any info please contact us here. Thank you.
