It's the grey hairs in your NOSE that bothers people Mike! They sell implements to remove them on late night tv.

> not that I'm aware of anyway.

Ah yes... senility already setting in! At 32??!!!! You can't really play the age card until you're 50 Mike. Then it's too late anyway. One slam and your freakin' lunchmeat.

So can we get the gang to S.J. for some downhilling next tuesday afternoon or thursday (anytime)?

...as much as I'd like to try out, I'm leaving town for a few days beginning this afternoon for my b-day. Going camping up north near Lake Berryessa. I'll pass along the message to everyone in the shop...I probably have to have shaved legs to be considered huh?

I've been putting in some mileage lately, East Bay, Marin, etc. Legs are getting really strong as well as the lungs!!

I'm going to be 32 in less than a week. St. Patrick's Day is always the beginning of the birthday celebration for me that continues until the 19th, my actual birthday.

Thanks for the wishes...

Life is good...
On 3/14/2004 Miko wrote in from (66.81.nnn.nnn)

Today marks a day of firsts for my son Jackson!

We spent the morning skating the Ben Lomond skatepark, and Jackson was finally able to roll into all the transitions except the pool. (He's not quite getting the kick turn thing, but it's coming.) He can fakie. All this on his new BDS Bulldog Skates, Wicked Skills deck.

We spent the afternoon at Capitola beach in 2-3 foot waves... I surfed, and he was out there in the lineup with his boogie board. I would help him jockey for position, then give him a push into unbroken waves with him getting rides all the way to the beach. Same for his buddy who was visiting us. 8 year old cowabunga!

He's stoked and I'm proud AND stoked!

Reminder: VANS Milpitas, tuesday night 6-8pm

Slalom Races in Bay Area
On 3/10/2004 John wrote in from (68.120.nnn.nnn)

Hey Dave,

Thanks for the reminder. Yes, there will be slalom races hopefully soon. Strictly grassroots and a group effort. I don't mind getting things rolling by calling the time and place like we did last year, but would like to get everyone's help in running the thing. Now that the rain has finally died down, it looks like it's time to do just that. I'll talk with Gary and Julius this weekend and we'll try to post something soon. Does that sound cool?

John

Bikes for Boards??
On 3/1/2004 Geo wrote in from (64.207.nnn.nnn)

Hey Mike,
I'm digging the blend of bike tech talk mixed with the slalom. I used to be a total bike geek, I've got a Litespeed Mtn bike and Road bike, a Cannondale, a Mazi, and a MONTY Trials bike. Which brings me to my point, I am trying to unload my trials bike on another site, but had an idea. Since I am just trying to get money($175)from one toy to buy others, is there anyone who would like to do a trade for this bike? It's a Monty T-219 Modified trials bike with 20" wheels and hops all over the place!

I need wheels, trucks just name it. Sorry if I should have posted this on the Buy/Sell/Trade forum.-Geo

So Mike, will we see you riding your bike UPHILL on old tunnel road? ;-)

You up for some skating this Sunday? Nothing too crazy. I just got some stitches in my hand on Friday so I need to avoid falling on it. Slalom maybe?

Send email or call

regards,
clayton

Steel is really expensive...
On 2/28/2004 Geezer-X wrote in from (151.200.nnn.nnn)

I've still got my old Columbus SLX Bianchi and 531 Team Ti Raleigh track bikes, but I'm looking for a new road ride to replace a Suntour Superbe Pro equipped Trek 2500 I've ridden since '92, and I can get a Dura Ace 10 OCLV Trek for under 3K at wholesale. I'd like a nice Richard Sachs with Record, but frankly it's a tool, not a wall hanger, and I don't want something I'll feel bad about if I ball it up.

I do like to admire the 66' Cinelli B that came in the trash pile in the garage of my house, but it's not a "magical" steel ride. It's just a crappy shifting, crappy braking noodly old bike.

Fibreflex Hester? Pocket Pistols TS/Hybrid? which do YOU want to race?...

Bikes
On 2/27/2004 Hamm wrote in from (199.41.nnn.nnn)

the 1st 4 years I lived in San Diego I didn't even own a car. Had a Schwinn Super Sport that was my 'daily driver' and a Tomaso that I rode on the weekends for my long hauls up the coast. Columbus Tubing is the real deal!!
I'm old fashioned, I love steel.

Geezer-X, if it were'nt for slalom taking all my cash I'd be racing BMX right now. I've got SWEEET 24" PK Ripper that's as race ready as any of my slalom boards.

Bikes and Slalom
On 2/27/2004 Geezer-X wrote in from (151.200.nnn.nnn)

It was getting into road racing in 1978 that used up all the time I'd been spending skating.
I'll be out for a loop in Rock Creek park in DC tomorrow morning, run cones in the afternoon, and a fixed gear ride Sunday with a nice park session at Lansdowne afterwards.
Bikes and skates go perfectly together. Was anyone into BMX back in the day? I just swapped a crusty Honda CB750 for a sweet 1982 GT 26" BMX Cruiser...
