Chips and Salsa

Posted Wed, 06/07/2006 - 4:18pm by Chris

There are more gosh darn potlucks in this town than individual dreadlocks. The one I crashed last night had only chips. Luckily Nancypants and his girlfriend had the forethought to bring salsa. How the heck is a scrounger worth his salt supposed to get by around here?

The Day of Lucifer

The heavy metal gods have once again smiled upon the peeps of old spokes home. 666 celebration consisted of 30 keystone lights and some botched tailwhips off of the old spokes curb, under the supreme supervision of Scorch Master Flex and the Quid Beans.

Although Grahm-Tron failed in his attemps at a 360 tire tap barspin, he did land a bunnyhop 360 off of the wedge into traffic, which stopped and admired his extreme skillz with angry shouts and blaring horns. He then manualed their faces off.

A successful mission.

My eyes still hurt from all the lemons that were sqeezed into them last night.

Feast on adrenaline.

I would advise against playing duck-duck-goose at two in the morning, in a ghetto back yard, with lots of sharp debris and wet grass, post road soda, if you don't want to have stiches in your knee. If you like that sort of thing and you find yourself looking for a mellow ride to do, then check it out....

Ride to the end of the causeway in Colchester with lots of snacks and beverages to watch the sunset. We left from the Radio Bean after work and manifested a sizable crew. There was a crazy geek in neon yellow spandex and he ROCKED!

Ohh yeah, that's why I live in Vermont.

This is one our favorite products. Ironic de-evolution makes me laugh, HA. Works great for turning your verticle dropout frame into a sane single speed steed.

We had a great shop ride on the Mobb's Valley trails near Richmond. Ralph, Perry and I piles into the pick-up after work and trundled up there. Solid level two single track that's short enough to rip after work. We also found a new loop at the Arcana farm loop down the road. There are great directions to the trails on the Fellowship of the wheel site.

Passing Gas

Gasoline is two dollars and ninety cents per gallon. We're at war with no end in sight. We are being watched and listened to from the Big White House. Shouldn't we all be outspoke'n?
