This is what we call an "Hip Hop Slave Bike".

Basically it tend to have extensive focus on colour coordination, either have an Arrospok (Areospoke, the blue front wheel) that has no advantage other than for appearance sanity and/or a colourful Deep V wheel (the pink rear) that came in all sort of colour that again have no advantage other than it´s appearance, a chopped mountain bike handlebars, and sometime a BMX-style top tube protectors (obviously not pictured).

Oh and it tend not to have brakes.

Canoeing in the South of France with my girl, it's always the last stretch of river that is the hardest to keep padding until we reach to the destination.

I've forget how shit the fisheye were until I use it during the holiday (it was wrapped in a plastic bag) for the first time in many months.

What's In My Bag, October 2008

A couple weeks ago a cunt in a white van decided that it would be a wonderful idea to drive very close to me and hit my rear wheel, sending me off to the tarmac and torn the ligament on my wrist (luckily just a small rip), fast forward to last week I discovered that the cog where the chain go round in the rear wheel was slipping and it turn out that the lockring that held the cog has failed and shredded the hubs rendering it buggered, thought it's just about ridable, which allowed me to head over to Cavendish Cycles a couple days later to pick up my new rear wheel that was built for me and end up carrying the old one back home.

Yes, the wheel did fit in my bag.
