| The mystery of the missing wheel. |
[14 Jul 2005|12:39am] |
If anyone sees someone walking around with a 26" rim laced to a black BMX hub with a panaracer pasela 1.25" tire on it, konk the fucker over the head and get my wheel back for me.
Stolen wednesday night sometime between 8pm and 12am near cordova and abbot.

Maybe I'm not in touch with my feminine side, or maybe the man purse is the most ridiculous fashion accessory ever.

I'm up to my old tricks again. This includes my favorite trick, which involves drinking a bottle of gin and some beers but still getting up at 7:30 and riding 12km to work. Good times, noodle salad.

Well, here we are. If you look you can see my last entry is dated February 20th, 2004.
new developments, in haiku:
yet another bike
total fucking fixed-gear stees
so ridiculous
i'm in one less band
i am jaded with music
i quit the lanterns
work is not so bad
free food breakfast and lunches
still with fat paychecks
being single sucks
but it could be worse i guess
i could be married
rode to hope last week
i got some sweet-ass tan lines
from my riding gloves
last night i got drunk
got a flat on the way home
having brakes is good
that is all i guess
sorry for the bad haiku
it is time for bed

| Metal Steve news update |
[20 Feb 2004|12:16am] |
My new fixed-gear bike is really coming together. I hope to have it tuned up enough by sunday to do some sweet riding around the hive while Jesse finishes up the paper lanterns recording. I just fit the cog and a BAD-ASS chain.
It still needs a few minor adjustments and finishing touches. Chainline needs some straightening, some Loc-tite on the bracket cups, some handlebar tape and plugs might be nice. I could also use a front brake..
Peace..

| stokinest bike ride |
[30 Dec 2003|08:32pm] |
riding the fixed gear in the snow. oh yeah. pretty stable considering i'm running 700x25C tires.
going down some big hills (2nd an nanaimo heading east, slocan and broadway heading south, etc) locking up the cranks and sliding the back wheel from the top of the hill to the bottom. so much fun today.

| The year in review |
[28 Dec 2003|03:24pm] |
In the fashion of the ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) foat, I've compiled my own best and worst of 2003. Here goes:
BEST OF:
- Adam W. Taylor aka "Slopes", one of the best friends I've ever had. This guy got me through two years of BCIT with beers and kicking my ass at pool.
- Graduating from BCIT with honours
- Hope to Vanderhoof bike trip (thanks Mark Palm for lending me the panniers)
- Shotgunning Pils outside the STREETS show in Kelowna, passing out in a parking lot
- Finally landing meaningful employment in the engineering field, no more of this courier crap
- THE SKETCHATRON: my first fixed-gear bike. Found this bike in the BCIT parking lot, took it home and fixed it up nice.
- Not living in Burnaby!
- Emmis Hollow, one of my closest friends who I just met at the tail end of 2002.
- Chuck Norris, Fucked Up Kid, Paper Lanterns, Painted Youth, What the Kids Want, This is My fist, Go It Alone, Clarendon Hills, Knulla Roofs, the fuckin' WIFELY DUTIES (fuck yeah), Juls and Kahla collective. Every other stoking band I've seen this year (sorry ground monkey, you did not stoke me out so much)
- Shows at the ALF house
- Midnight bike rides by myself
- Fucking PAPER LANTERNS / PAINTED YOUTH TOUR '03 (getting my Bro-Down on)
WORST OF:
- The amount of liquor I consume on a daily basis
- The amount of Bon's I eat in a week (I'm starting to feel gross)
- Ripped to Shreds broke up? Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuckkkk..
- 2nd Ave Fiasco, too many people I love got hurt
- 2nd Ave not being a place where i want to hang out anymore
- Sheho, Saskatchewan (The Prairie Chicken)
So it looks like the bad outweighs the good this year, anyway. Hopefully next year is just as stokin.
