New Subscript: Shirts

just in today...

Crackle Jersey Tank Tops

Fuck calling 411

So how am I going to get charged $1.75 for calling 411. I found out that if you text "the spot you are looking for and the city it is in" to 46645 then you will get a text back hella quick with the address and phone number. In case you are wondering what 46645 is, it is short for GOOGL, a service provided by Google. 46645 can also be used for getting a listing for a nearby restaurant, find the definition of a word, look up the price of a product or get an area code or zip code. You can even use it to calculate a tip or finding out if it is going to be sunny by texting "weather and the city". So you won't get charged $1.75 but it will be treated as a standard text message, trust.

Here is what it looks like...

ISR on everybody.

I just got all my parts in. Its been 3 years since I last rode. My bike was stolen by some dope feen, when I took it into Walgreens . I invested about $1200 on my last setup. It sucked waiting on each part to come in one by one. Took months before I was able to even ride it because I was too broke to order all the parts at once. Well, this setup is real similar to what I used to have, beside the flatland frame. And this time I was able to dump everything on a credit card.

One of our riders, Tarek was kind enough to throw my bike together. He works at a local bike shop so he does this on the regular.


Black Chrome Rims.
We ran into a few problems. I'm an idiot for not checking. I automatically assumed the rear drop outs were 14mm. But was actually 3/8 and I ordered a rear hub that had a 14mm axle. Fortunately Tarek had the tools to grind down the drop outs.




I don't know why but Tareks got every freaking tool you could need. He could start his own repair shop out of his garage.
Throwing the brakes on.

All done.

Thanks T.
