Hello World

Finally 21!

The Centurion Fixie!

My 43mm Deep V's finally came in so we slapped them on @ around 4:30 and had to head out to the bike shop to have them put my chain on (tool broke). I didn't put on the grip tape at the time to save time just to go ride. Needless to say it was a nice ride! There is still work to be done such as; tune the front wheel, get a new seat and then restore the frame. Right now it has black cork tape on but I did get white just to see what it'd look like because I didn't want to throw it on and have too much white on it. Oh yea the bike is a 1981 Centurion Super Le Mans. My buddies to the right is a 80's Columbia with Alex Rims and bull horns. To end on a funny note, my Walmart fixie is coming in tomorrow, mega ega lols!

Hey what's good everyone I'm the new guy Len. I went to Home Depot and got myself some paint removal and just started a few minutes ago on my single speed which I will soon convert into a fixie.

Stuff I used so far:
Citristrip
Foam brush (bad idea as the paint stripper deteriorated it)
Paint Odor Respirator (gotta stay safe kids)
Latex Gloves

Then will be using:
Paint scraper
Steel Wool Grade #2


Updates later to come...

Korean Burritos

11:30 AM Yesterday
Ride to used Nissan dealership to get bulgolgi burritos at Koi.

12:30 PM
Arrived at Home Depot to find nuts and bolts to replace the stripped ones on my bike. They did not carry the size I needed.

1:30 PM
Arrived at Bliss to hang out with Kat on her lunch break.

3:00 PM
Biked to work. Working the closing shift.

11:00 PM
Arrived home, ate, watched Entourage, slept.

7:00 AM Today
Woke up and biked to work. Got off at 4. Going to eat steak and corn for dinner and lay on the couch for the rest of the day. I earned it.

Beautiful sunny day!

I got off work real early and wanted to play outside since I was feeling better.  Got a good ride, considering that I haven't been riding like I should. :/ Also got to play some tennis with the boys.  It ended up with Jeff and I against Rj, down to a tiebreaker and Rj cracked under all the pressure!  It's gorgeous outside and hopefully it continues to stay like this.

I realize in this picture that i am actually missing the ball but it shows good hustle, right?  It shows our bikes in the background too.

Can't wait to ride again on a sunny day.

1st night session 4.10.10

Amberglen Pond Park

Decals coming soon. TAP met sunday evening and agreed on our logo. Stopped into the sign store and now waiting for the lady to email us an estimate, then we email her if we approve, then she emails us the final product before making it, then we email her if it looks good, then if it looks good they make the decals. Too many steps if you ask us…. all which could have been done while we were in the store. I guess that’s just how they do business. weird.

Safe travels to Jeff and Wobbles. Have fun at home, but come back soon so we can ride!!!
