alkaline Posted October 9, 2001 Share Posted October 9, 2001 Wow! It's great to see that everybody is doing good. My arm is healing up nicely (I'll have a couple of little scars, and we all know that chicks dig scars), and I'll be back on my bike tomorrow. I think I'd like to start racing too. Maybe this will be my year. I need to get a bike with gears before I race though, because I know I'd get dropped fast on my fixie. What dates are we looking at for the Stonecutters' Ride? I need to buy my ticket (as soon as I get the money). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boxcarwilly Posted October 10, 2001 Share Posted October 10, 2001 anybody who? oh shoot there he is. alive and kicking, with bad knees and really bad morning breath. sorry for being so distant cutters, i had given up on 12oz and then sonik told me it was back up or maybe it was bare i dunno and all i thought besides checking out the aroe post was getting up with you all. some asshole idiot tagged my seat with a mean streak i found out who it was and went a little nuts, "dont fuck with jealousy" the pink princess cant be touched. the last two weeks and me riding have been bad i got in a decent crash near the entrance to the hiway, and still had a roundtripper to cambridge on me, at least i took the ulock to the window. i have no winter gear here so it is cold on the cold days, and i think i am a narcoleptic all i do is sleep all day. i took a spill on a metal grate/plate these things suck. it was raining and some idiot walks in front of me *you cant lock ujp in thse* i went down hard and hit into a car. bad luck week, as for a 45 dollar paycheck for 2 hard ass days f-that i quit i am jobless apartmentless and spent far too much money at the tattoo convention. well i am back kids. so thats the lowdown. j.

alkaline Posted October 10, 2001 Share Posted October 10, 2001 Good to see you back, Willy. That sure is a bummer about crashing like that (see my crash story above). Hope things start to go a little better. I need to ride more, but my leg is still bruised and hurting. Fuggit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boxcarwilly Posted October 11, 2001 Share Posted October 11, 2001 whats a helmet, only on the days when the voice says where your helmet or at least put it on the outside of your bag so you dont get a ticket and go to jail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lush Posted October 11, 2001 Share Posted October 11, 2001 Originally posted by DIBS lush,do you still ski?a guy i work with is a ski nut!!he cant wait for snow to start falling in tahoe.i might even give it a try this year,never been skiing. not really. Mom and dad sold my racing skiis (all three pairs) and my racing boots, and I can't go back to softer boots, or skiis, and to buy skiis like my old ones is too much just for going recreational. Plus I didn't like skiing without a coach around to help me with my technique. I mean it was alright for the most part, but I kinda felt like a wanker. Last year I had a job that made me work weekends too. So no skiing then. I kinda took up snowboarding but haven't been able to do much of that either. Invite me to Tahoe and I'll teach you to ski :) I think I need to take up a new activity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest HESHIANDET Posted October 11, 2001 Share Posted October 11, 2001 invite me to taho and i'll teacj you to snowboard.

alkaline Posted October 11, 2001 Share Posted October 11, 2001 Are any of you guys good at track stands? I was trying to do it the other day, because I was real bored (yes I was in my living room, watching TV, trying to do a track stand). I just kept falling over. Does anybody have some tips on mastering the track stand? I sure would like some help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boxcarwilly Posted October 12, 2001 Share Posted October 12, 2001 3 years riding amateur for morrow and 1 yr am for rossi which i dropped because i cant stand hiking the pipe and hadnt taken a freeride run in yrs. notice how i said in the pipe. and not on the hill. because a mangled goat could wreck me free riding cuz all i do is look for hits. hesh it was a joke and not meant to be a testosterone stab but ill seatbelt late 180 rewind you to death, ive done it to alot of people. and i used to teach at two mountains in new england so blauuuuuuuuuu. jokes i want to free ride and never look at a carved out east coast pipe again... just if we ride dont take me near the pipe i wont leave its instinct. i also raced gs from the age of 8-13 at waterville. i grew up there. wv bbts. owwwww. as for clifford the jew curl noisecore maniac he has ridden bmx all his life and is the closest to kevin bacon that boston has.

alkaline Posted October 12, 2001 Share Posted October 12, 2001 Originally posted by boxcarwilly ah the boredom after work. That seems to be my problem lately. All I’ve been doing is working and sitting around the house all bored (cause I’m really broke right now). I’ll be practicing my track stands (no handed and otherwise). I also want to learn how to skid. Do you guys have any advice for that? I don’t need to be a “clifford the jew curl noisecore maniac “ but any tip would help. I’ve never been skiing or snowboarding. It sounds like a lot of fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DIBS Posted October 12, 2001 Share Posted October 12, 2001 it must be that time of year huh?you guys are fiending for snow.i wish i could say the same.never havving ski'd or snowboarded,i never grew to like the snow.i hate it.but.im willing to give it another try,give the snow sports a turn.snow is better for me now,if i want to see it ill go up north a few hours,and when its lost its charm,ill come back to the bay.i hope you guys get to hit the slopes soon.
