track bikes



Going shopping for a new track bike, the Sub 30 that I have been riding is just to heavy, im tired of dragging it up the steps, and also I can go faster in a track bike. I always liked the style of the Bianchi Pista, but unfortunately it won’t accept a freewheel, at least not the 2006 model I’m looking at. (its not used I just has been at Champion bikes for years) At Metro Bikes they have a Fuji Track Classic, as well as the standard Fuji track bike in stock, and while kinda plain compared to the Pista, it does accept a free wheel, and its fifty bucks cheaper for a current year model bike.

travel show pilot

Good news on the “Out and About (working title)” front, I’m working with Roddy to plan filming for a pilot for the travel show project in conjunction with the BBC this fall, hopefully everything falls into place quickly, if we don’t get it done by early fall im afraid that it will be delayed until the spring at the earliest.

 

Also I’m hoping to include a segment with my friend Duncan in Scotland who plays rugby, perhaps get a segment with us playing rugby who knows.

First FIAT outside UBS Building.

I was eating my subway at the tables outside the UBS building with a friend when I caught one of the First FIATs driving around, I luckily had my bike nearby so I hopped on and followed it around the block and snapped some picures.

 

On a side note I would like to mention how good the photo quality is from the touch pro 2.
