I cracked my bike frame a few days ago; I am getting a new bike in a couple of weeks, but for now my bandmate gave me the BEST LOANER EVER.
This beauty is a vintage 1960s Bianchi.
Usually when someone lets you use a "backup bike" to get you through, it's a beater. I cannot believe he is letting me use this bike! FAST.
I also need a haircut like nobody's business.

that is a beautiful fucking bike. I love those old classic ten speeds. YOu can HAUL SOME ASS in those.

Yeah, it's fast all right.
We took off the small sprocket in the front; it's just a five-speed now.
I usually ride single speed, so I've just left it in top gear for now, but I might try using the gears for the hell of it while I have it.
I love riding around on this work of art.

^ agreed. i'm envious. my bike is all fucked up.

I was thinking more like Patricia Arquette.

^^^ my friend snapped those photos a few months ago.

it's like a psychedelic freak out in trhere!!!!!

What does I "smiley face" acid mean? I "happy" acid?

I'd throw a hell of a lot more than $2 at you! maybe you need better friends.

Psychobilly freak out

circa 1-9-8-9 acid house music.

Haha, that was my loose change. That photo was taken a few days before my college graduation and there was a lou out that required drink money...i think. i'm pretty drunk in those photographs.

I like that better.

Tie dye usually annoys me.

But hey, that's not my room. Plus I guess it's a pretty cool photograph?

From like 20 years ago!?

Still don't know what it means, though. What does it translate to? I always thought the smiley face stood for "happy."

That's because you were still stuck on the Stones even then.

My face expression looks like I'm taking a dump

^ who's that with you?

yr gf or yr sistah?

or yr gf's sistah?

No, I wasn't. Circa 89 I was into the pixies, robyn hitchcock, camper van beethoven, sonic youth, replacements, a little husker du, jesus and mary chain, a few other things.

But the fact that nobody can give me a straight answer indicates that nobody else knows either! ha ha!

notyrfriend has some serious knee socks going on in that shot!
