FLIPS



180 and back. I did on BMX so I think I can on a fixie.
Will try and hope I won't flip on the tar instead flipping the bike.

I DID MISS ELINA



I remember the days when I was in primary school
and all we were waiting for was that ring of the day...
I'd zap through bodies of uniform and avoid almost anyone
except the boys which I was supposed to meet under the school staircase
where we chained our bikes together. Some brotherhood huh?
Anyways, I had this for good solid BMX years.
It gave me comfort from Kuwahara to Redline.

Well the point is will it be as comfortable as i think it was for a fixie?

Not sure if I've posted this but what the heck...
I can't ride today as it's pouring hell outside so i'll write.

EYES ON YOU


As the topic goes on and on about setting a 2nd bike or something.
I am thinking of getting the Ciocc frame [as above] very soon.

Handmade leather Top tube pad

This t/t pad project took awhile partly due to my laziness and workload. Got a piece of leather hide (black + patterned) off Bricklane for a fiver, i must admit the size was rather generous.

Then i have to endure a rather painful process of pierce & sew method for which i have not owned a sewing machine and the proper tools for it. Nonetheless i was quite happy with the end result, slightly raw and minimalist. If you look closely, the (white)thread has to be painted with a black marker (yes i know i should hv gotten a black thread to save the trouble) hence the blue'ish effect :S

my so so craftmanship >:s
