Track Bikes


As you can see my addiction to track bikes is a little insane but if your anything like me, you like to have options. I'm not one to argue ones style, regardless if it's not my "style", I'll support your decisions and tell you to "do what you do!". I just recently finished up two of my track bikes (09 Cinelli Vigorelli & 07 FTP), which I can proudly say that this is the end of my track addiction! Now it's time to plan a new road build. I've actually made my decision on which route I'm going to go as far as building a new race bike and then a training bike, which one will come first (I still have yet to decide)? I'm looking into building a TIME RXR ULTEAM and a Moots Vamoots RSL. More than likely the Moots will come first because I've been looking forward to building a bike with a BB30 setup, and since the TIME RXR isn't available with a BB30, I'll be building up the Vamoots first. I just need to pay off my cc's first!

Seattle Bound!



Well it's official! I'm heading to SEATTLE!!! WOOT WOOT! I'll be taking off 5/14-5/17. No, I will not be going alone but with my best friend CORTEEZY!!! Thanks homie for making this happen! I can't wait to head out there and drink coffee and that's all. Just kidding! I'm excited to actually see the Space Needle and visit some friends. I hope their Sushi will be as amazing as their coffee! I would love to bomb the hills out in Seattle but I doubt anyone rents bikes out there (well at least nice ones). If all goes well out in Seattle, I just may buy a one way ticket out there and move on!

Saglife X MashSF


I just recently (2 days ago) got a new backpack (Thanks Ron!). I've been contemplating on getting a new bag to cycle with and have been back and forth about having to go with either a messenger bag or a backpack? After months of in depth research, I've finally come to a decision and decided on the backpack! I knew I wanted to go with "Saglife" but wasn't too sure on which backpack to with because they have several models. After some research I came across one bag that they had collaborated with MASHSF with! I instantly was all gooogly eyes for this bag, because not only for the makers/designers that designed it but mainly for it's functionality. It has several compartments and a huge main compartment to boot! It's very stealth looking, accommodates up to a 17" laptop, many accoutrements, and has several reflective labels on it. I have also used a whole can of ReviveX water repellent spray on it just in case it rains. Most of my research came off of "Prolly's" website. He actually has done a great job in describing the bag and how well it holds up in NY street riding! Once again I'd like to thank Ron for hooking it up with the bag!
