had painful bruising around my pins the past week, so I went into the doctor's office. X-rays revealed a homogeneous bone density, and he pulled the remaing three pins from my wrist right then and there.





I'm elated. Still can't believe it.





I don't know what to credit, and I don't care: time, homeopathics, bone zapper, supplements, bacon...it doesn't matter. All that matters is now I can get my ligaments and tissues going again, and I will ride a bike someday.





Amazing. Thanks for the words and pics, bikestrutt!

It was the bacon, no doubt.





Great news, I know the wrist is a bitch but don't slack on the rehab and you'll be back.

After watching some recent BMX videos and finding myself wanting to rock a bunnyhop or two (though I'm a lifelong skateboarder, I still have some 80's tailwhippin', Rad watchin' BMX blood left in me), I started looking around for a bike that would work for a 6'1 200+ lb dude. I came across the Haro 124:

Has anyone (who is roughly my size) ridden a cruiser like this one? I have yet to find one in the real world, so I'm still not sure how I'd fit on it.

I had a GT/Dyno Colab 24" Cruiser and I am 6'2" and about 200. Loved the shit out of it until my kryptonite chain got clipped. Cockgobblers!





Had to stop myself 3 or 4 times from buying a DK Cygnus 24" just convincing myself it would be stolen. One plus to the DK is a chromo frame.

Thanks. It's good to know I'm not too big for those things. I'll have to keep my eye out for that DK. Looks perfect.
 
just posted this in the Brazilian music video thread (which is full of huge amounts of win, by the way). thought it deserved to be cross-referenced here:

CRUISIN on the moon!





Got up this morning and convinced myself today was gonna be my return to mountain biking. A lap around the block yanking around on the bars changed mind.


Went for a mellower road/path ride instead. I'm stoked to be so tired right now!


Maybe MTb next weekend.
 
yesterday was the first of this year's Ruff News time trials in [oooooh yeah] Rock Creek Park [oooooh yeah] Rock Creek Park - basically an event starting in the spring through summer held every wednesday where a bunch of us couriers and racers alike compete on a 5.18 mile climb heavy & sharp turn course through the park complete with BBQ and plenty of alcohol.

I've been riding MTB. Fitness is probably at 65%, but getting better every day. After an hour or so, my wrist gives up and tries to let go of the bars, but that's better than nothing. Stoked, dudes, stoked. I'm enjoying every moment on the bike more than ever.





Here's some BMX madness of a young maniac at the homeys' local trails. Just jumping this shit is insane, I could not believe this kid triple-tailwhupping and flipping shit:

Crazy day.
