Ride of Silence re-cap

Ride of Silence re-cap

Another great ride, with a real good purpose. We're so used to riding fast, or like me quasi-fast, and chatting up a storm with our cycling buddies about current events that it's refreshing to ride with others at a slower pace and to have the time to reflect on other ...

Locals: Jacob

I went out on an adventure at White Rock Lake this evening and who do I run into but Jacob ! I met Jacob when I bought my Bianchi Pista Concept from him, thanks to Transit Bicycles Company, who connected me with him. It was awesome riding with you, even for a little bit. Until next time, my friend. : )

Southern Hospitality

I am in Houston for the weekend, so I was able to attend Houston’s Critical Mass ride yesterday.  I talked to the shop guy and girl at Houston Fixed Gear about the ride and they were really friendly and told me to expect a crowd of around 400.  All varieties of cyclists turned out for this ride.  The ride was massive, the route was interesting, and the cyclist-motorist interactions were sometimes chaotic.  Someone was arrested, another got three tickets, one person was hit by a car, and some angry drivers let the riders corking the roads know how they felt about the traffic delays.

This ride was a great way to see various neighborhoods in Houston and to share a common interest in cycling with so may different types of people.
