New Paint

Well I got the first part of my bike painted last night and wanted to share it with the rest of you that I know don't really care, but I want to show off. Here's the picture:

The whole bike is going to be in these colors. I'll get a higher resolution picture up soon. This one was taken with my iPhone. I'm getting close to having the frame completely stripped of old paint and then it will be the frame's turn. Ooooooo, my new bike is so close I can taste it, and if you've ever tasted spray paint that's what it tastes like. Maybe I should be using a mask so I don't get paint in my mouth.

Dr. Strangelove or: How I Stopped Worrying and Learned to Love The Bomb

If you haven't seen this movie you need to see it. I take that back, only see it if you love mindless and totally random movies. Here's a quick run down of the movie:

There's a crazy General that orders a plan R to be carried out. Plan R is a nuclear attack on Russia. There are all kinds of fail safes in the plan so that the Russians (or the Americans) can't call off the strike. His whole premise for wanting to bomb the Russians is because he says that they are taking over Americans minds by fluoridating the water. Totally random. The military people are hilarious. Here's a few of the greatest lines from the movie:

"Gentlemen. You can't fight in here. This is the war room."

"Look here Colonel Batguano, if that is your real name."

"Mr. President, I'm not saying we wouldn't get our hair mussed, but I do say; no more than 10 to 20 million people killed. Tops! Depending on the breaks."

There are quite a few more but they're only funny in context. Go see it. It's funny. I mean just look at the title.

Change

I finally updated my website. Go ahead and take a look. I've added a few pictures and projects that I'm working on. Look now.

Lance is Back!

I just got an email from the Lance Armstrong Foundation confirming Lance Armstrong's return to cycling. All I have to say is WHAAAAAA HOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

Change of Plans

Well my bike is going to take a little bit longer than I thought so I'm going to start on my next project: fixing up a bike for my bro-in-law, Jon. Here's a picture of the bike now.



It really doesn't need much work. For sure new tires, new cables, and new bar tape. Hopefully Jon will like riding and then we can get some new wheels and possibly some new shifters. I want to get his done before the snow flies so that Jon can use it. So here we go again. Here's the link: CLICK HERE!!!

Logo

Here's my rough draft logo that I'm going to try and put on all the bikes that I restore. Let me know what you think.

Check the updates!

I've added some more pictures of my bike. Check it out, unless you're square like that. Ya, I said square. CLICK HERE!!!
