Kirkham St bike lanes — tribute

As the new Kirkham St bike lanes join the old Kirkham St bike lanes, elite US Navy fighter pilots do precision doughnuts in the intersection high above Ninth and Kirkham, an awesome display of adolescent petrowankage and lethal force. I just liked the futurisimo lines here...

Taivas Varjele!

Taivas varjele mitä sieltä tulee? sieltä tulee MAALI!
For heaven's sake, what is that? It's a GOAL!

Finnish Hockey Mafia feat. Antero Mertaranta - Taivas Varjele!

These dudes made a song from the amazing commentary by Antero, on the more or equally amazing goal by Mikael Granlund (<— watch this first!) in May during the IIHF.

It's not only genius, but danceable as well.

skate capital of the world

Spensor Hill in action at the Ed Benedict skatepark in Portland, Ore.

In Portland, skateboarding has been woven into parks and streets in the same manner as cycling or soccer. Skateboarding is illegal in downtowns across the country. Portland’s downtown is marked with “skate routes” featuring signs with a skateboarding stick figure. In most cities, skaters consider it a big victory when a skatepark is built. Portland is building a network of 19 skateparks scattered throughout the city. Skaters even have one of their own in City Hall: Tom Miller, chief of staff to Portland Mayor Sam Adams, rode into politics through skateboard advocacy and has continued pushing for skateparks from the inside.

Skateboarding Capital of the World
Decades of activism make Portland, Ore., heaven for the sport; follow the skate routes

Tom Miller, a skateboard advocate and the mayor’s chief of staff, in Portland.

I'm leaving tomorrow afternoon for a weeklong 'vacation' in Portland.

Bringing my skateboard with me, even though I'm a noob and can't do tricks / won't be able to enjoy these skateparks. But just so I can get around faster, and in the case that I can't find a bike to borrow or don't want to drop cash to rent one.

saw this locked up to the Lincoln Room in the Gaslamp (, San Diego) the night I went to see ARTY next door.

That's like how much white I want on my bike (but my frame is red).

But maybe I'll wait 'til one of my tire blows so I'll have a more legitimate excuse to get a new one.

My first Critical Mass

more-or-less Friday night's route. 27.05.11. *excuse the paint smudge.

From the Fountain in Balboa Park — Downtown/Gaslamp — Airport — Point Loma — Mission Beach — Ocean Beach — La Jolla — Pacific Beach — Mission Bay — Old Town — Mission f-ing HILLs — finally Hillcrest. (—and back to Balboa Park)

36miles. 3.5hours.

San Diego Critical Mass: April

Critical Mass San Diego 27.04.11

Cool! They rode through the airport! Sad I forgot about CM or else I would've had a more eventful Friday night that day. But that deal at PB looks a little troubling.
Good music choice, though, to whoever made the video.

...30+miles??!
The most I've ever cycled at one time was 8-10 miles—LEISURELY.

not quite ready for tomorrow.

For future Critical Masses and Bike Parties.

Or just anytime you're cruising the city at night.
