Piers and Beers II (last week!) not to be confused with two weeks ago or tonight! (ha! all that was written over a week ago, so 2 is three and stuff)

Pollard and I flashing the K W, a hand gesture popular with the fixie gangs of the island. Word life. I almost decided not to write a post, but only a really, really long title; but alas, I cannot insert photos into the title area; and what would a KWVelo post without photos be like? I'll … Continue reading Piers and Beers II (last week!) not to be confused with two weeks ago or tonight! (ha! all that was written over a week ago, so 2 is three and stuff)

Piers and Beers

There's a jolly group of us who frequently embark upon late night rides we call "pier tours." We tend to ride to a bunch of piers, beaches, lanes and generally have some fun just pedaling around with lose goals of where to go. A few weeks ago we decided to make it kind of official … Continue reading Piers and Beers

office chair all crashed up and sad looking on Truman Ave

This is an example of when drunken office chairing goes wrong. We've all been a little irresponsible before, in our younger years with drinking and operating office chairs. Some of our three of four readers may remember the first office chair post advocating for cyclists to open their hearts and bike racks to our office … Continue reading office chair all crashed up and sad looking on Truman Ave

more exciting coca-cola crate pictures

Cookies! I took this while camping at Burlingame State Park in Rhode Island and commuting to the beaches every morning. As seen here, the crates work quite well to carry an assortment of beach sundries including cookies. I really like cookies! The cool thing about camping here is Blue Shutters beach and miles of preserved … Continue reading more exciting coca-cola crate pictures

The Space Shuttle is in Town! and other wierdness

Last Friday I caught a glimpse of what seemed to be the Space Shuttle driving down Duval Street. The spacecraft was a little smaller than expected; but the tail fin and color scheme is pretty dang recognizable. It must have been it, but I couldn’t get my camera out fast enough; that thing is a … Continue reading The Space Shuttle is in Town! and other wierdness

A Rollerskating Jam Called Saturday

Saturday, Saturday, it’s a Saturday. 5 whole days of work and one whole day to play De La Soul knew what was up, but my pedicab shift on Saturday was the farthest thing from work and yet I got Paid in Full. The line between work and fun is completely blurred, perhaps even eradicated, on … Continue reading A Rollerskating Jam Called Saturday
