Marc is no rookie

getting a flat without a tube is a rookie mistake

whether a commuter, mountain bikers, racer, or courier

no matter what sort of cyclist you are... it is vital to carry a few things on each ride

a tube, a pump, and a multi-tool

a flat tire can turn a short ride into a long walk

Bike Shop Coffee Shop...

2012-01-25T08:11:00.002-05:00

although I never really considered it...

I used to daydream about there being a Bicycle Shop-Coffee Shop in DC

a place where people could meet and fuel up before a group ride

a place where people could meet and drink coffee to talk about rides and riding

a place where people could get their bikes fixed as they drink coffee

a place where classic cycling films play year round... with weekly movie nights and weekly urban night rides

where is this places?

not dc

2012-01-24T11:55:00.004-05:00

funny...

my morning drives to drop the kids off at school can often involve a bit of frustration

from the second we walk out the door until the second I return home

the whole experience often carries elements of anger and frustration

my poor kids

having to listen to my diatribes

my rants about the traffic around me

all the cussing at the idiots and assholes swarming around me

whether trying to get across town in the car

or just trying to get across the street on foot

there can be so many cases where the behavior of those behind the wheel cause me anger and frustration

the most funny is when that idiot or asshole is an officer of the law

last week I took the kids to school taking a road that cuts through The National Zoo

at a stop sign almost within view of the Ibex I made a complete stop

then as I was about to take my turn to progress forward a parked Zoo Cop to my right opened their door and tagged my car

it was audible... I heard it the officer heard it

the officer continued to get out of his vehicle never apologizing

in fact... this rather muscular specimen of a man inflated

like a puffer fish out of water as he stepped out of his car

one out of the car he gave me a firm stare

no wave... no indication or realizing his error

my main objective... getting the kids to school

I will take the scratch on my car and pass on the conversation with the Zoo Cop or any cop for that matter

then this morning headed back from drop off

I was taking a left at the light

coming the opposite direction was a Special Police police car

turning right with a merge lane

I progressed in the left lane

the officer gave me that police officer megaphone honk as I made my turn

what was his issue?

did he need more than the right lane

then as he approached on my side a block or two later he gave me a condescending stare

I gave it right back

I did not want to have a conversation with this Special Cop

but really... what is your issue?

2012-01-22T21:39:00.006-05:00

ah... people

people suck!

so I was at Ski Liberty last weekend with my family

when taking a few runs on the snowboard with my ten year old son Dean on planks and Dad on board

there was a moment where we had three and in need of a SINGLE to fill the SUPER QUAD

always best not to waste a chair

I hate when people waste a chair

I want more runs... and if people are wasting chairs... that is more waiting

I hate waiting

the lift op sent this guy forward

he hesitated... I invited him along

so...

I am on the chair

there is this guy next to me

he starts in on this "why do you snowboard?"

and then there is this weird time warp where he starts in on the whole early 90's Skier vs. Snowboarders thing

it was not even funny

I had to ask him if he was real or if I was being punked

he kept going on

even after I managed to change the subject

he reverted back

I asked him if he was going to call me a knuckle dragger

he went on and went on

all that stuff about the way that the snowboard ruins the mountain

how if I wanted to surf I should go to the beach

well...

I never argued... because I know about the trajectory of the ski and the trajectory of th

e snowboard

how bumps are a skiers line and not a snowboarders line

so I made not argument as I knew he was not listening to any rebutal

instead I fed him the thought that snowboarding saved skiing

the sport of skiing was all Charlies Angels

and not the Cameron Diaz- Drew Barrymore version either

we are talking ski bunny Farrah and ski bunny Kate Jackson

snowboarding revived the sport of skiing

showing them a different way to interact with the mountain

snowboarding with its skateboard and surf roots had its own set of tricks

letting the skier know that there is more to be done then back scratchers and helicopters

but he did not listen... people rarely listen... I am not doctor... but I do not think assholes have ears

he kept going on

on and on

so much I would have liked to push him off the chair

but alas no... I am a civilized man in a civilized world

and there was no snow under the chair.... just rocks and dirt

so I worked to change the subject again

what a jerk!

he thought he was cool

he thought he was opening my eyes

this guy was stuck in his HOT TUBE TIME MACHINE!

off the chair my son asked me if I had enjoyed my conversation with that guy

I laughed and said no

then told him that I learned something

don't be that guy

I try not to be that guy

that guy sucks

in hindsight.... this guy sitting next time on the chair lift was like David Duke sitting next to Rosa Parks on the bus

only after the chair ride did I understand his hesitation

what an asshole.

oh yeah... we got caught up in that whirlwind called life

kids soccer... kids karate... kid birthday parties... kid sleep overs...

kid kid kid

and then the days we are happy to do something for ourselves or just put our feet up

this image is from a post on LYME DISEASE

it is winter here in the Mid-Atlantic... so this is less of an issue

but something to always keep in the back of your mind

Got Lyme?

The Roll Up in Oakland California

bike shop and art space in Oakland

http://www.rollupbikeshop.com/

the other day while watching Storage Wars I saw one of the "units" contained a three wheeler

it was a basic beach cruiser with an after market attachment for the back end that converted the bike into a trike

interestingly enough I saw a bike the next day with one of these set ups

that was in Florida

my Grandmother rode a trike

all the ladies in her crew rode trikes

but none of them had this conversion kid

pretty cool

then there is this shot from a bike wash

or maybe it is just a photo shoot

either way

if mountain bike and cyclocross races had bike washes like this I would better understand the long lines

I might even consider waiting in one of those lines and get my bike washed

snagged this second shot from Richmond Spokes

face up... the naked guy is part of the shot

I take enough photos to know when I crop things a certain way

cropping things in and cropping things out

the naked man balances the shot

riddle me this...

2012-01-18T17:08:00.003-05:00

why are there so many people riding around on 1,400 dollar bikes with 14 dollar pedals?

why? because they do not know that there are options

the standard options are...

flat pedals, pedals with toe straps, and cycling shoes with cleats that click into clipless pedals

well... there is now another option...

Ergon a company best known for its handlebar grip innovations has come out with a pedal... the PC2

I have been zipping around town on an old beater single speed mountain bike with a pair of these

and I must say... these pedals are a joy

these pedals have brought new life to a crusty old bike that was no fun to ride... until now

hard to believe that a pair of pedals would be enough to lure me to ride this crusty old bike

but it is true... it is my current "go to" bike

and I love wearing whatever shoes I choose

big clunky Blundstone boots? no issue!

high top sneakers? a great match!

the Ergon PC2 two offers a level of performance and comfort unmatched by any pedal I have ever used

no... this pedal is no substitute for clipless pedals and shoes

but it is a fantastic option for those looking to ride around town in their business casual or their pumped up kicks

I am a fan...

if I worked in a shop I would have people try these pedals on their test rides

why? because they would buy them

CYCLOCROSS: You're doing it wrong.

Georgia Gould

that image and that inspirational poster is off Georgia Gould's blog

more than likely... it was manufactured by her

and yes... that is at Charm City in Baltimore

Baltimore is Georgia's hometown

although she does not live there now

my one Georgia Gould story is having her sign me in at Charm City registration... it was a nice exchange

she helped me by pinning my number on me

then as I raced she cheered me as I slugged it out in the back of the pack on each lap

then I learned who she was as she warmed up by beating up on the Killer B's and then kicking ass in the women's Elite Field
