    that surly is fucking ridiculous

    Okay, so the final episode totally blew (minus shnickers dancing on the boardwalk and making out with the situation) (oh, and j-woww creaming herself over the juicehead goriallas), but a few of those brawling episodes were AMAZING! Changed my life, man.

    What's up everybody? I'm Ryan and I've been lurking around on here for the past few months so I decided to make myself an account. I ride my bike because it is fun. I ride by myself because I don't have any friends that ride. I just got a new bike after about 10 years of not having one. I bought it from BikesDirect, it is a Motobecane Track. To be completely honest I don't really know shit about it but it seemed like a good price for an entry level bike. I changed the bars and put a front brake on it. I also put a freewheel on it until I feel more comfortable/safe riding fixed. The pedals are garbage, suggestions? After that I will probably get some cranks and change things as my budget allows. I'm mainly on here looking for advice and parts. I skateboard a lot, enjoy beer, and work for Red Bull.

    just put on the fixed cog and you'll be safe enough with a front brake. then you can venture to a rebel universe of NO BRAKEZ....unless you like coasting, and if you feel safer with it i guess...

    hook up the red-bull

    Thanks, I'll go check out Veloce. I've been going to Revolver over on Interstate. The guys in there are helpful but the selection seems limited. I've noticed that some serious shit talking goes down on here!

    Bryan, I've got the fixed cog on there, it's a flip flop. I'm not partial to coasting it's just that I'm trying not to kill myself in my first couple months back riding! I've messed around with the fixed in parking lots and stuff, just a matter of time. Let me know if you guys get together for rides and stuff, I can always hook up the Red Bull. Just need a day or two notice.

    Cool, we were all talking about it last week. They must have made a move to sponsor it. I will most likely be at both events, maybe I'll meet some of you people in person there!

    And thanks for all the tips on peddles.

    welcome anderson

    le tour de franks needs an energy drink sponsor for the race in may. it's not the westside invite and it's not intimidating. there is racing bikes and hot dogs.

    hey everyone my name is Ben, I live in shitty San Diego right now but i'm moving to Portland by the summer i hope. just thought I'd introduce myself and check out the board, see if i can get some tips on good wet riding gear. seems like a fun place to ride from what i saw when i was up there last summer unfortunately i didn't have my bike with me

    Heres my ride nothing special and its too small so it looks goofy but can't complain too much about a free frame

    i dont have a picture of myself or at least one i wanna use so that will have to wait
