Last Fridays Booze Cruzz

2010-03-07T13:26:00.000-08:00

It was a sweet ride n Friday even with a brain dead SBC team leading 30 people around town in search of a cold drop. It started at the museum and ended at the basement with the bucket of brews getting demolished at breakneck speed. Thanks for all who joined and see you next time.

i always thought that hardcore mountain bikers hated on the fixed gear but apparently some company made the marketing decision to include them in their business plan. as exemplified by Answer
times are changing. so times to change my undies.

talking about undies, Mcguyver is cool and business minded. love it

AAAh great times in summer! bla bla la
some old some same old.
people riding in the sun, chilling, trying out bikes that is too big for them, drinking beers and wine and bourbon and coke, girls coming along (summer does bring out really pretty girls or as brian would say "lovely")
people nearly dying. Ah talking about nearly dying, frecking Dave survived one of the most impressive crash in history of booze cruises. coming down the snaky run down the domain brakeless came up to a car on the last dodgy corner and had to hit the curb and flow through the bushes a la superman dodging jumping trees and branches to land on a downslope covered with leaves and managed to only cut his hand a bit. impressive indeed, one of the luckiest escape in history of teva.
darn i hate predictive text on computers.
as smart as we were we managed to pick up enough canteen noodles for 7 people. it was sure delicious as 7 canteen noodles boxes on a drunken night.
party ended at doc as usual but 70% of the group went home.
i gotta get myself on a road bike...
anybody got cash to buy more bike parts come to whites or give me some...

HOly cow, i totally forgot about the SkullBike Club GPV race we were supposed to have...
my excuse(s) is that we have been too busy being bike pimps/ rolling with players all day long that anything cheap is to throw in a bin.
however, i miss the Awol, Bruised, Cannibalistic, Dirty,Eccentric, F%^(ed, Grimmy, Hardcore, Irrespectful, Jarhead, Kaboom, Labialized, Messed up, Noir, Obscene, Pirates, Quesadillas, Rugged, Scavenging, Testosteroned, Ulcered, VWXYZ.... mentality we had three years ago even though i wasn't in the club yet, let alone known it's existence.
anyhow, existentialism apart we still can be all that with a touch of sophistication.
check what i saws on the pedalmafia blog this morning....
they had the GPV world championship somewhere on earth

When the heck are we going to do our auckland championship?
True Metal riders only (or people who love to crash)(actually who cares. everyone should do it)
