SPRING!!!

Spring has officially sprung! I am so happy that the snow is melting away, and that it is starting to become warmer. I have not ridden my bike in so long and I seriously feel like an addict going through withdrawal, (maybe not that extreme). I will be returning to my beloved steed very soon and will be getting a brand new bike hopefully before the end of the school year. I am looking at All-City's new freestyle bike, the "Def Wish". Things are starting to look sunny and bright!!

(This is what I think of a Minnesota Spring)

Sorry For Not Posting

I have been super busy and lazy with posts recently. I officially apologize for my absents, even though I am sure you did not miss me very much. I will try to be more diligent with posts.

T-shirts

I makes t-shirts and sell them. Time to time, I will draw a design and make a screen of it. I use silk screen or screen printing materials. Its old fashioned but very affordable. I have a new design that I will show you soon. Basically it is the Minneapolis cityscape with the letters "MPLS" underneath the skyline. I will usually sell them for $15, unless I have to go through special measure to make them. I will use Hanes t-shirts most of the time. Let me know if you want a custom shirt.

99 Problems

A cool Blue Grass version of Jay-Z's song "99 Problems". Hugo is the Blue Grass band that gives their twist of the song.

Leftover Lunch, Garabage Munch

A sweet fixie freestyle video. I am jealous of the talent these guys have. I am trying to start doing this stuff. For those of you who don't actually know me, I use to BMX, but I got tired of hurting myself. I don't know why, but I want to start risking injuries again. Just watch the video.

I don't know how to add a video from Vimeo, but here is a link to the Video.

I feel like there should be an image, so here is one.

Bet that hurt.

Bike Jerks T-shirt

I just got a sweet new t-shirt from Jeff at Bike Jerks. Its a reminder of how we, as cyclist, need to fight for our part of road. I am proud to wear it.

It was swallowed by the Bermuda Triangle that is my bedroom floor, which caused the wrinkles.

Save the Giant Pandas!

Over the weekend I had to work on a Social justice class project. My injustice topic is endangered species, but focusing on the Giant Panda. I was in uptown for a couple of hours with some friends getting signatures to prove that people care about Pandas. I got a couple of pictures while I was freezing my but off!

It was really cold out!

Waste Basket Got Some Sweet Art

I drop off my Waste Basket over at Jeff's house. Jeff runs Bike Jerks. He put a cool skull on there. I got some pictures off of his blog.

Looks even cooler with the art on there!

Obsessing Over These Songs

 Self Esteem

 Sense, Sensibility

 

Andrew Jackson Jihad is a really good band. This album, "Can't Maintain", is part of my winter soundtrack.

Longboarding

Bernardo lives in a condo complex downtown next to the Guthrie. The parking garage is underground and heated. we decided to take advantage of it and longboard in the garage. There were some pretty steep ramps to bomb down and danger at ever corner. The sketchy level was so high, because we didn't know if a car was coming when we would carve around a corner. Ultimately, it was a lot of fun and I hope to do it again soon. Here are a couple of Photos we took.
