foldable bike helmet: facepalm.

if it was made of metal it'd be a cool cookie cutter FOR YOUR BRAIN when you get hit by a bus.

Tour De France: Stage 1

I guess tennis fans go to Wimbledon. Sadly, I am not in Monaco, or France. Sigh. But here are some cool pictures I pulled from VeloNews. Even if you're not a roadie, I'm sure you'll appreciate the fact that these are not the bikes you learned to ride when you were 8.

edit: note the Scott has the massive chainring and is sporting shimano di2. i think this is my favorite bike out of the bunch by far.

A thief's thoughts on BioPace...

Are biopace chainrings so bad that thieves won't even take them? I've been using one on my commuter for quite some time now, can't tell any real difference given that my commuter is a ~27 pound tank.

Shamelessly stolen from mister bike snob...

I was just thinking...in an accident the rider would probably lose their fingers...or at least horribly mutilate themselves...

Walking through Palo Alto today, I spot...

What the deuce? I hope for the rider's sake that rattle can paint job doesn't peel off the seat in the summer heat.

Coyote Hills Ride

Did you know we have a gun range at the top of Coyote Hills? I think it belongs to the police department or something, but it was still pretty bizzare. Other than that, headwind going in makes nice tailwind on the ride home. There were a lot of random little squirrel/rat/ferret type animals scurrying all over the trails - couldn't do a lot of the descents at full speed because of them. I'm sadly in pretty piss poor biking condition at the moment. School ruins everything I guess...

Secret Ingredient: Drillium

Drillium! The key ingredient in structural failure of key mechanical parts and broken necks. I wonder where the drilled brake calipers are...oh yeah, their riders died.
