speedy1 Posted October 13, 2006 Report Share Posted October 13, 2006 I'll take some of that action! Bikes and watches are two of my favorite hobbies. So I decided to post a couple of pics of them together. Here are two that are sitting in my den at the moment.... Titus and BMC goodness What two wheeled beauties do YOU ride.....while wearing a rep maybe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cucumber_Jones Posted October 14, 2006 Report Share Posted October 14, 2006 Shoot that is a nice BMC. I have a Santa Cruz super 8, Cove Stiffie Hard tail with a dual crown 6" fork and a Giant OCR 1 road bike. No photos at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cucumber_Jones Posted October 14, 2006 Report Share Posted October 14, 2006 Dude....if you post pics of those I might need some "alone time" afterwards though. I live on the North Shore so I do a ton of Down Hill/ Free Ride in the best place in the world. But DAMN that is a fine BMC carbon = yummy!!

speedy1 Posted October 14, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2006 (edited) I live on the North Shore so I do a ton of Down Hill/ Free Ride in the best place in the world. But DAMN that is a fine BMC carbon = yummy!! When I lived up Bothel washington I used to do a schit-load of freeriding. Possibly the kind of riding I miss the most. I had a Disco Volante that Jan Karpiel welded himself. I miss that bike but it would teh suck in Tx. But I still find it hard not to try and huck off of stuff...... hence the 5 inches of travel on the Titus.

Cucumber_Jones Posted October 14, 2006 Report Share Posted October 14, 2006 (edited) That Titus has some sick bling on it. The Chris King comps are awesome. Where r u in TX? I have a friend who lives in TX and is a free rider. (Perhaps pm). The Karpeil is sick too. Hand welded - nice.

Guest chronomat123 Posted October 14, 2006 Report Share Posted October 14, 2006 my ride's got 4 wheels gravity hypercarve...deck has a rastafari theme to it (from way back in my undergraduate days.... life was different then, lol) also have a cool 27" gravity minilongboard with fullsize trucks... anyone else here bomb hills? funny story, we were out longboarding on the UF campus last summer, and believe it or not north central florida has some serious hills: buddy got chased down by the University Police Department (campus cops, LOL!) and the cop almost ticketed him for reaching ~30 mph on a skateboard. Campus speed limit is 20. as for bikes... i love beachcruisers....most of my buddies here in Gainesville have 'em... mine was stolen on campus a few months back.... oh well...

speedy1 Posted October 14, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2006 That Titus has some sick bling on it. The Chris King comps are awesome. Where r u in TX? I have a friend who lives in TX and is a free rider. (Perhaps pm). The Karpeil is sick too. Hand welded - nice. I am in the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex. We are starting to build some descent stunts at area trails but damn, NOTHING to the scale of northshore. But we do have some descent gnarly trails and rock gardens with 1 meter of so constant drop offs so a big 130mm-140mm travel trail bike like the Titus can be put to good use. But we have some hell-acious urban assualt if you travle to to downtown and university campus areas! And THAT is where the Disco got used around here mostly. @ the gravity rider You have balls that clank to ride one of those damn boards at the speeds you do downhills. I have some buds over on the coast that live for that sort of game but not enough hills in Tx. That is t3h nutzor I would love to give that a try but all I need is to try and justify one MORE toy in my arsenal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RageRover Posted October 17, 2006 Report Share Posted October 17, 2006 Nice pics! Beautiful carbon crank. Im a roadie myself. Which got me thinking, Panerai is to Campagnolo, as Seiko is to Shimano? How about Lip is to Mavic? Any other ones? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeff g Posted October 17, 2006 Report Share Posted October 17, 2006 Love to show some pics...maybe later. Currently riding - Original Ibis Ti Mojo hardtail on the trails, and Specialized on the road. The road has taken over my life this past couple of years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HauteHippie Posted October 18, 2006 Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 "Bikes (the pedal kind)" Name the movie that this reponse comes from.... Is there another kind?!?
