its almost the weekend!

woo! this week of school as been brutal, i've been trying to get over spring break this whole week, but at least i get out in about a month and then ill be free! anyways, ive decided to take a break on my bike for the weekend and maybe next week depending on my mood. lately ive been real sloppy with my bike. i'm not able to land any of the tricks even if i tried. my fakies aren't straight, my fakie whips are no more than 180's, and my wheelie attempts are more pathetic than usual. that and the face that my bike has been falling apart from me so i dunno whats up with that. not even sure if i wanna do critical mass either, so hit me up this weekend and lets partyyy!!!!

clare drew a picture of me with a bike. thanks, i luv it! rad as trick frame with no downtube, the wide bars for better bunny hops and check out them arrospokessss!

here's another bike that i really enjoy seeing. prolly's mke bruiser with some chukkers (word on the street is, velocity is making a limited run of these rims, so hop on them!). this is such a sick fucking trick bike. there isn't one part of the bike i don't like. i need to learn how to build a proper bike...
btw...check out prolly's blog all you bike lovers. this is the one blog that i consistently check everyday. gives a lot of info on bikes and a lot of other interesting posts! he's da reason why i blog. http://prollyisnotprobably.com/

and lastly, i'd like to introduce to you the king of fixed gear frames. this would be the only track specific bike i would ever go back to for riding. in my opinion, there is nothing better than the broakland pipebomb, and i can get people to back this statement up. fuck your njs, your tarck, your vintage italian, your pursuit bike, and etc. broaklands are custom made in oakland by jason montano at montana velo. they size you to build the perfect frame for your geometry. you get a custom paint job, a nice graffitti logo (not pictured), and a wound up fork (these are the most badass, and strongest fork you can get for your track bike). the only downside to this frame is the price tag of $1700 =(. oof, what a stab at my heart. this is the best picture i could find on the internet without some jankey and ugly parts on it. i gotta swipe one of theses before jason stops making them. gotta find a job...or who wants to lend me $1700?

alright, i wrote more than i thought i was going to, but at least i got rid of all my bike-sexual thoughts out of my head.
