WHEY
Bike riding is surely the funnest and most relaxing activity ever!! Down here in the heart of Virginia (swamps,fiddles, and wine) its just about the most beautiful and liberating experience one can have.. theres miles of awesome offroad trails and the weather is BEAST PERFECTION right now! also, i just got a new bike (Specialized, YESSSS) but seriously theres nothing better than the rush you get on some scary downroad chaos..whos with me on this?!

I love it.
I once went over the handlebars mountain biking... Picked gravel out of my face pulped a muscle in my leg, cracked ribs, two severely sprained arms, possible hairline fracture in shin, couldn't walk for 3 weeks. Good times. I sort of lost my nerve a little after that. I must have been in shock a little though, because I somehow rode home. |

Ive gone over the bars quite a few times, but i never come out too badly hurt.
I also got hit by a retard on a cell phone going like 60 in a residential zone.. i was fine even though i was flipped into the fucking air and did about a 270.

I have a single speed freewheel w/ 1 brake, a regular 21 speed mountain bike and a very cool late 60s Robin Hood 3 speed.

one has a front brake. oddly enough, that's the one that put me in the hospital--because of the brake.
brakes on track bikes are dangerous. besides you can modulate yr speed really well by skipping, skidding or using back pressure on the drivetrain. you can also grab the front wheel with yr hand to stop in a pinch. |

Do you have tall bikes where you live, chabib? Those are big with the punk types here, where they weld a few frames together...

Back in the elementary school days, about 11-12 years old I was quite into mountain biking, but I guess it was more like child's play than a real hobby, although I spend a lot of time browsing through mtb magazines.
One day my bikes safety lock got frosen and the key got stuck in, I kicked the fucker and the key snapped. So my bike's been in the bike shelter locked for over five years. when I move to another city I'd like to get a new bike and get back into it I think. |

as long as it isn't a kryptonite NY lock, you can cut it with a hacksaw. if it's a krypto, you can do it with an angle grinder.
