Reflective Clothing from the EU

 

Found this over at fixedgearblog.  Reflective clothing!  Though I'm not big on the wording, I like the idea.  There's a bunch of hoodies with patterns designed to help you be seen.  Roughly 67 USD, these might be a good idea.  Let the search begin for something stateside!

Edit:  Forgot the link to the site, HERE.

Done. For at least awhile.

H+ Sons - Radial fronts

Felt Carbon Fork (I know, blasphemy on a Giant frame.)

Truvativ stem

Maximus riser bar

Gotta give props to the homie Del, he didn't throw in the towel with 25 min to closing at City Grounds.  They had given me an FSA stem that didn't work, so he mashed out 90mph to make it in time.  Thats his white/purple rig down there too.

Now time to work on them tricks!

 

Gates Carbon Drive System

I've recently been fascinated by the belt drive system for bicycles.  My curiosity has led to discovering the Gates Carbon Drive system.  I don't know how much it costs, but whole bicycles that come with it are an arm and a leg.  Are they even in business still??  If they are, maybe this is is my next mod?

God of War Collection - PS3

I've been jonesing to get back into the video game world.. keeps me from drinking too much.  Seeing as its a health reason, I've been looking around at whats new and whats forthcoming.  What do I find? The God of War Collection. What is it you ask?  Its re-mastered GoW1 and GoW2 so we can see boobs in HD, err, Kratos smashing on undead, gorgons and whatever other sort of Greek mythology baddies in HD!

A quick exerpt from the press release states:

Thanks to your feedback, we are excited to announce the God of War Collection for this Holiday Season. Now fans and newcomers to the series can experience the epic journey of God of War and God of War II in 720p HD form. Both titles have been remastered with anti-aliased graphics, running at 60 frames per second for a smooth gameplay experience, only on the PS3 system. Additionally, the Blu-ray Disc compilation will bring the PlayStation Network (PSN) trophy support to the franchise for the very first time.

Time to start saving up my pennies!  God of War 1-3, Final Fantasy XIII, Darksiders, Dante's Inferno, shit, I won't have a social life after I get a PS3!

No Updates Makes Papa Smurf Sad

Well, its been a week or so since I've updated this blog.  I have an excuse though, I haven't done anything to the rig!  Well, that changed on Saturday.  My H+ Son's finally came in.  No fancy pics just yet, but here's a pic with the rear rim on at the shop. My bad for the blurry ass phone-cam pic.

The question is:  Where do I pick up some of those pimp ass, lady killer shorts!  Seriously though, unsure about the white tire.. oh well, once it goes bald, I'll probably go with something more conservative like black. Didn't get a chance to throw on the carbon fork, my forgetful ass didn't bring it.  Oh well, just another reason to hit up the shop I suppose!
 

Also headed over to LA Bike Day in Los Angeles on Sunset Blvd.  Was pretty cool to see all those bikes out there and people doing tricks on them.  Just snapped a quick pic.

Stay tuned for official pics!
