So as some of you may have read I'm looking into making informative videos for the cycling world, specifically the younger FG/SS crowd.

Now I need a name to use for web distro and potentially public access show titling.

Ideas? anyone.

I'm probably gonna keep the subtitle, "Bikes are fun, keep it that way."

So...ideas?!?1

What do you guys think of bicyclebutcher.com?

Also thinking mefixbike.com

that's kind of the point. for people who can't even speak.

orrr..... bikeyourself.com

rubberonroad.com

or

keepedallin.com (or some variation)

Oh snap I got it!!!! pedalphilia.com oh yeah!

Oh god, that would have been so wonderful.

alex:

Did you film your drunken conversion project last night?

Sadly no, I was too drunk to think about it.
And it wasn't really planned. Krysten just came over and was complaining about her Mixte, so I just converted it rather than talk about her cassette messing up any more. (much love Krysten)

I also violated one of my promises to myself in converting that Mixte.

alex:

drunkcycling.com

I love it.

Okay, resurrecting.

I have come up with the show theme and name.
But I need some cast / crew / interested folks.

This is something I will inevitably turn into a profit generating venture. Nothing ridiculous. Just profit enough to buy beers and parts and video tape and server space.

But I need help. All great things are collaborations.

I've managed a few creative teams before and know the ins and outs of creating campaigns/initiatives.

What I need:

"Lay People" - Anyone who isn't a pro on fixing bikes. Someone who can be in videos to learn and say funny shit.

"Bikee People" - People who can change tires, chains, cogs, easy components and say funny shit.

Designer - I have design experience, but I am a perfectionist and will never be happy with my own work. I need someone to help with identity and the site look. (grimm?)

Video crew - I don't have a camera, so if you have one, perfect. If not, we can get one. No experience necessary, I can give you pointers on lighting and etc.

Promoters - That's all of you. Once the site is up, spread the word. I'll even make you membership cards or some bullshit. Spoke cards for the fakengers (which I am) and stickers for all you real deals.

Let me know if you want to pitch in.

is that a yes?

I'm in, my hours off leisure or wf after 5:30pm and T TR SAT SUN pretty much all day except from noon to 2 T TR.

get ready everybody....

i'm in to help. and i'm diggin' the design.

yeah if i was communist i would get that hammer and sicle(or should i say chain whip and pedal wrench) tattooed

bowhunting.
computer hacking.
ninja.
nun-chuck

krystenr:

deliciousfuture:

ooh i want to help. i am pretty good at bike mechanicizing. especially if this is fixed gear specific. i'd also be down for behind the scenes help (music maybe?)

Can you throw together some "russian nationalist" mashup electro music?
Pref stuff that's not noticeably copywrited.

In case you doubt my mad acting skills....

Max is NOW!:

And who wants to keep the schedule, will someone volunteer?

I'll do it!
