WHITE MEN CAN JUMP

FREEZING MY ASS OFF AND JUMPING LIKE I WAS THIRTEEN AGAIN. MAN, I FORGOT HOW FUN IT CAN BE. IT HAS BEEN ALMOST TWO YEARS SINCE I HAD BEEN MOUNTAIN BIKING. WHAT WAS I THINKING? JESUS, ROAD RIDING IS BORING IN COMPARISON. ITS SO MUCH EASIER TO GET LOST IN THE ACT. EVERYONE NEEDS A VACATION FROM THEMSELVES AT TIMES. SOMETIMES BOOZE WON'T SUFFICE.

WE ARE REGISTERED

Everyone has been asking if wewere registered and we weren't because we merged two houses and didn't need anything. "Carrie wasn't interested in more stuff." So, after some thinking and nagging "we" decided that this would be a good idea. Thanks for all the thoughts and efforts everyone.

OLD AND NEW FRIENDS

Let the games begin. You got to love a wine glass that will hold half a bottle.

IF, all the possibilities

I think I got the "IF tattoo in '02 maybe '03. And this is the new "ride" after a 2 1/2 hour ride in the rain. It was about time I got off road again. Check out Independent Fabrications '06 catalog. This tattoo is on the back of the outside jacket and it is standing alone on my naked arm. Thanks for using the photo, IF.

THE LOST VICTIMS

I would rather not speculate about the lost victims of the missing fuji apples.

DO NOT TOUCH MY FOOD

An innocent bystander touched one of Julie's fuji apples that had been lifted from her mothers refridgerator. We are not sure of the final condition of the victim, but beware.

DOUBLE TAKE

This is the look that will make you take a "double take" when you are smacked in the head with a rubberband that would hold your drive train together. Check out Rob on 29percent.blogspot.com for more criminal behavior.

WEDDING INVITES

This picture was actually used as the picture for the wedding invitations. My fathers co-workers saw this and their reaction was, "Is that tattoos on his arm, did he do that when he was younger?, and his girlfriend has a nice ass. Thanks, I think? Oh, well. To each is' own.
The conquest was getting bikes involved. I win.

ADVERTISING ISN'T ALL BAD

VEGAS?

THIS YEARS BROWN

Would you just look at the sexiest pink hub on the universe. This is what caught my eye at Vegas more than once. This was taken at the IF booth in Sin City on a single speed 29er. I think its awesome that IF and Phil have such a great relationship. Thanks for everything Brent, Tyler, and Matt.

BIG DADDY

My new ride. Easy fellas she is still a virgin. Moments after being built and never riden. This is my first 29er and yes it has gears and suspension. I know its damn near blasphemis on 2drunk2shift, but we all sin. She's loaded up with enough fiber it could make you crap your pants. FSA bars, cranks, seatpost and stem. Sram 4 shifting, Hayes 4 braking, rockshox 4 bouncing, dt swiss 4 rolling, time 4 pushing. Peace niggaahs.

FINE WINE

This is by far about the best ten dollar wine money can buy. It was so good that this photo was taken after consumption. Maybe thats why its so blurry. This 2004 cabernet sauvignon is from Excelsior a product of South Africa. It is deep, rich, smooth with bit of plum flavor and a sweet buzz to follow. Goes great w/ about everything; especially a large wine glass. Hell, pop the cork and drink it straight out the bottle. Who you tryin to impress?

More ink from Cliff at Blue Horseshoe, in V.B. This was sort of a rip off of a drawing that was posted on "Ole Skool Track.com about a year ago. Thanks for the art.

TEN DOLLAR WINE REVIEW

Straight from the Cline Cellars, Sonoma, Ca. this blend of syrah, petite sirah and cabernet franc is about the best ten dollar bottle I have come across. It does have some rivals from Rosemont Estate, which does have some quality blends. But, this one seems to shine above and it has cool looking red truck on the label. Its a little sweet, so don't start with a zin. It is sweet, but not too sweet. It's mellow characteristics makes it similar to a straight up merlot, but it isn't quit as rich as a merlot. It is a bit fruitier; dark berry? Great with a Rocky Petal cigar (vintage 1992 for the the cigar, 2004 for the wine). goddamn, I need to get back on a bike.

TEN DOLLAR WINE REVIEW

Although, screw off caps are becoming more common on wines these days I am not a fan of it. Admittedly, it is conveniant and some delicious varities do so; I find it to be a cop-out. The label is great, but you can't judge a book by its cover. It is drinkable, but mostly because of its alcohol content. I found the flavor to be mellow without a lot of tannin. The problem is that it is so mellow, it is shallow. Not much to bitch about, but not much to rave about either.

MX LEADER

Number 68 out of 100 ever made. This is a twenty five year anniversary EDDY MERCKX MX LEADER. She's a beauty, but in spite of all my effort she is still a heifer. She is plenty stiff for my fat ass...and smooooooth. Weighing in at 20lbs. it would have been in the realm of light weights in the late 80's and early 90's. But, what can you do? Some thick girls just have a little something special that you just can't shake. Or, on second thought maybe you just can't stop shakin'.
