markie's blog: i. am. tired.

-wow, didn't expect yesterday to turn out the way it did
-rich hit me up halfway through the day to ride around the sunset
-later on christina, emma, and molly texted me to go hang out
-so after a delicious steak and macaroni salad dinner, rich and i headed to willies house
-messed around on his mo-ped and had another dinner
-went down to the sunset rec to meet up with christian
-rode down to de young to session for a quick tidbit
-gave christina and them a call and decided to spend the night there
-that was at around 8:30
-rich and i didn't get there until 11:30
-hooray for mindless chatter and procrastination
-an hour spent at willies corner make jokes
-another hour spent going to safeway on taraval for almond milk and cinnamon toast crunch and tons of donuts
-another hour to get down to the embarcadero
-we stopped to chill at the island for a bit too
-now that i think about it, why did we go all the way over there?
-we wasted soo much time in the sunset haha, good times
-the ride down there was also probably the most fun ride i've ever had
-bombed down all of taraval, then up lincoln blvd
-down oak street, which was super intense btw
for some reason the street wasn't lit so the only light we had was the street lights, and everytime it changed it to red, it got really dark
-i thought that was intense
-then down market
-best part was the little to no cars so we could run more red lights than we usually do
-definitely riding more at night now

-here it is willie's mo-ped
-i don't know how many times willie has told me he was going to get one over the summer

-note the time it says on the clock tower
-it's always nice to be at the island when no one else is there
-you don't have to deal with 8+ people trying to fakie or wheelie in one small little area

-it looks like there's going to be another fixed gear freestyle specific rim coming out by h plus son
-steppnig up their game, i see
-they look pretty sick
-Wider profile to fit bigger tires
-Heavier than Formation Face with thicker walls
-Made of 6061 aluminium alloy
