Well, I feel like a dork. Why? I took my first spill today. I was riding back from picking up my lunch when I heard a big truck breathing down my neck, so I got a little closer to the gutter so he can pass me… Well, he didn’t so I assumed that he was [...]

I got this article from my Yahoo Odd News feed:
SHEBOYGAN, Wis. - Brian LaFave couldn’t care less how high gasoline prices climb these days — he’s parked his pickup truck and is refusing to buy gas for a month, possibly longer.

If you spot this unique bike in or around downtown Tampa, please call the Tampa Police Department’s District One office at 813-354-6600.

We all fall victim to ranting in the passion of a moment, and this is just that. Call it a flaw of the internet for providing instant information and access to an audience.

While browsing through LA’s Online Bike Flea Market (CraigsList) I noticed an interesting trend: Faux Fixies. What is a fake fixie? They are late model bikes that have been converted to single speeds but try to look like fixed gear bikes:
I really dig the concept of giving old bicycles new life, but I have mixed [...]
