  1. collarbomes always break. Be happy you still have all your teeth. I knocked mine out years ago and have nightmares about them breaking or just falling out about once a week.

    anarchists usually sit around and argue age old philosophical questions... which isnt really doing anything

     

    like anything there is portions of people that title themselves and do something and then there is the vast majority that say something and sit on their ass.

     

    if i hadnt been straightedge mywhole life id probably be dead i know my self. and so i have done something... sxe led me to prayer, to anarchy, and even influences alarge portion of my art... not cheesy x's everywhere butinterpretations of a chemical free life... so sxe kids do dothings if they believe in it: selfimprovement.

     

     

    theoretically you could have found those things without being SXE. to be SXE all you have to do is abstain from substances. Which actually isn't doing anything. People all over the world have done that their whole life. Are they SXE too? Or are they just ordinary. Like you, ordinary...

     

    me, I am extraordinary.

    sxe has admittedly been a crutch as much as graffiti and my bikes... so if i am a bastard for keeping pure and needing a label for it i am as bad as an anarchist a black panther a track bike rider a roman catholic all those are labels all are crutches we cant all be as strong as you nigger art.

     

    at least anarchists, a black panther, a track bike rider, and a roman catholic all do something.

     

    what (by definition) does a straight edge person do?

     

    Don't say looks at his shoes or goes to see boy sets fire...

    that one is good but check the belgian movie with an actor as merckx.. Comedy at its finest.

  5. stars and water carriers, sunday in hell, and the fausto coppi story are a must for anyone who really wants to see the real. but the other movies I listed are fun for the whole family.. Who wants to buy an OG DeMartini....

  6. here you go

     

    General Bicycling Movies (non-racing)

     

    BMX Bandits (1983. Nicole Kidman.)

    Three adventurous Aussie teens put their BMX skills to the test when they witness a crime and are pursued by the criminals.

     

    Quicksilver (1986. Kevin Bacon, Rudy Ramos, Larry Fishburne, Louie Anderson)

    A young stockbroker loses all, then quits his job to become a city bicycle messenger.

     

    Rush It (1977)

    Bike messengers fall in love.

     

    Bicycling Movies (racing)

     

    American Flyers (1985. Kevin Costner Rae Dawn Chong. Written by Steve Tesich)

    Two competitive brothers train for a grueling three-day bicycle race in Colorado while tangling with personal drama, including the specter that one of them may have inherited dad's tendency for cerebral aneurysms ad is sure to drop dead during a bike race soon. Written by bike movie specialist Steve Tesich ("Breaking Away") with a lot of the usual cliches (the last bike ride, battling brothers, eventual understanding), which are gracefully overridden by fine bike-racing photography. Interesting performances, especially Chong as a patient girlfriend and Amos as the trainer.

     

    Breaking Away (1979. Dennis Quaid. Written by Steve Tesich. 1 Oscar Award and 4 other Nominations)

    A light-hearted coming-of-age drama about a high school graduate's addiction to bicycle racing, whose dreams are tested against the realities of a crucial race. An honest, open look at present Americana with tremendous insight into the minds of average youth; shot on location at Indiana University. Great bike-racing photography. The actors give exceptional performances. Basis for television series.

     

     

    Rad (1986)

    Teenage drama revolving around BMX racing and such dilemmas as: can the good guys beat the bad guys, who's got the fastest bike, must you cheat to win, and should our hero miss his SAT tests to compete in "the big race". Directed by stunt-expert Hal Needham.

     

    Ten Speed (1976)

    Two advertising executives compete in a 400-mile bicycle race from San Francisco to Malibu.

     

    2 Seconds

    A champion mountain bike racer named Laurie (Charlotte Laurier) hesitates at the start gate, and the two seconds lost cost her the race--and her place on the team. Forced into retirement, she meets Lorenzo (Dino Tavarone), a cantankerous Italian bike shop owner and former champion himself. Their mutual love and appreciation of cycling draw them together in spite of initial clashes. One night, they decide to face each other in a peculiar duel. Lorenzo shows Laurie how every victory is relative and that -- speaking of relativity -- speed is not the only way to bring time to a halt. 100 min. In French with English Subtitles.

  7. well he is a yuppie that turns left on 2nd ave in new york and is suddenly at battery and market in SF

     

    samuel jackson is the real in quicksilver.

     

    what about the french canadian dyke messenger move. Thats good for a laugh.

    homeboy's whining that other people who write their name on things ride the same kind of bike as him!!!!!!!!!

     

    does anyone else find this utterly pathetic?

     

    christ, get some perspective and get over it.

     

     

     

    now let's get back to the problem of balancing that 30 pack on the handlebars.

     

     

    hmmmmmm...what a conundrum.

     

     

    I can call people a poser if I want? No whining involved, just calling people out. Your whining about a 30 pack. Get a freight bike and you can carry a keg.

     

    Dave stoler is a punk. Wins his bike then suddenly he is an Italian?? Talk about a Poser. No wonder everyone in here is claiming cutter.

     

    If you are so "cutter" then go race the little 500 which happens every year still....

     

    Barry Muzzin is a real star.....

     

    Ted Danson riding a serotta for team 7-11, sprinting against Kevin Costner In the hell of the west (which was a big time real race)!!!

     

    How insane is that?

     

     

    but no, you guys like the poser dave stoller.....

     

    why am i not suprised

  9. oh,

    and to Heshiandet:

     

    booting me for speaking my mind is bullshit. Grow a spine and take the criticism. Don't just block those who have a different opinion. I have had to get 3 new names just to say what I want. Censorship isn't cool. Maybe you should go buff some graffiti while your at it.

     

    I want my name back

    ha

  10. if you read some of the shit on here you would realize why I come on this thread talking shit. A graffiti forum is not the best place to talk about bicycles.

     

    Yes I do ride bikes. Some of my bikes might be considered nice. Who cares. I got my 1st job wrenching @ 10 years old in the local bike shop. My father owns sicker bikes than most all of you on this thread. Bikes are a signifcant part of my life. but come on, what the fuck does that matter?

     

    Its all material stuff like cars and gold teeth (gold teeth being another bullshit graff trend). None of it makes you a better graff writer. Nobody can deny the trendiness..

     

    Yes dondi, sent, and zephyr have all wridden fixed. Not exaxctly the coolest thing to be on a bike at the time. None the less They wore spandex too. Not with baggy shorts on top but the real. Now everyone tries to pretend that they are punk on their track bikes with their spiked belt and some other fake bike gear. The track bike has been margianalized to a fashion accesory.

     

    Sort of like how punk is now the graffiti fashion though some writers have repped it all along. Now everyone tries to be down. See what I am talking about??

     

    The mainstreaming of anything (track bikes in this case) ruins it for those who rocked it when it was previously unexeptable. What once belonged to the few, is now incorporated by the masses.

     

    I guess I am an old man whining about "back in the day" but jesus christ. What used to be like 5 people in each city is now around 100.

  11. ok ok

     

    I am not mad at those who race, or those who messenger, I am mad at those who jump on the trend wagon. If I want to make a statement calling attention to the fact that it is suddenly the graffiti uniform to ride a track bike I should be allowed to without being booted from the thread.

     

    Some people have ridden road bikes and track bikes for a long time, others see these people and jump on the nuts. It is so obviously a trend. People that jock the trends are typically known as posers.

     

    All I said was that anybody who has gotten their first track bike in the last 4 years has fallen victem to a big trend in graffiti.

     

    I never said I hated cyclists or that I don't ride a bike as well...

     

    As far as twist and the donut. Twist has has raced bikes as a youth. Ridden his whole life and even a track bike for 6 years or so.

     

    The reason he won't ride a track bike now????

     

    He doesn't want to be confused with all the toy posers on the streets of san francisco.

     

    I have been around and it is the same in most every city. People who had cars, never rode in their life suddenly find it neccesary to have a fixed wheel..

     

    posers..

     

    Here is where I get booted (again) for having an opinion....

     

    isn't free speach the best
