In the past and as per the norm my stage bikes tend to be stout. All of my (personal) bikes are that way. Despite starting as singlespeed frames of the highest breeding. It's the inevitable suspension, straight gauge spokes, thumper rims, freewheel drive, gigantor tubes and rolls of electrical tape that USUALLY pushes the final tally somewhere in the realm of 28lbs. Laugh out loud heavy for even most WalMart ...
Of all the June Celebrideaths (we lost a sidekick, a pedophile and a wet dream) NONE is more troubling (to The Empire) then the demise of fellow pitchman, BILLY MAYS. Sensing that the mainstream media, those same peoples who hung MJ by both sets of his genitals for 'being' MJ (and all of the terrible creepy things that THAT comprises) have now forgotten'r'forgiven past transgressions in lieu of ratings, is ...

The dude beside me on the airport shuttle isn't a Canadian pop diva but he IS repeatedly stroking the hand rail looking at me...
As the Empire continues it's march towards global dominance travel becomes less inevitable and more unavoidable. Just like it ever was, but more justified. Travel to exotic and exciting locales such as Fayetville TN, Kansas City MO or (where I say I am now) the Appalachian Trail always lead to some brilliant (and too occasionally) startling reminders of just how similarly different we the nations are. Such travel requires a ...
Exactly ONE WEEK to departure. Seven days before leaving the manageable (900') base of the Court in favour of the 10,000' towering heights of Breckenridge. As the plan stands, my domestique du jour will meet me at the airport and whisk me away for four all expense paid leisurely days of acclimation and association. Following this brief bout of rehabilitation and education I will be promptly returned late on July 4...
Wandering a KCMO grocery I was reminded of something. I used to collect L'Eggs eggs. I don't remember why or what for but I do remember that I took them from my grandmother. Was that wrong? As a result of things, Albion is temporarily closed to mountain biking. For at least this week, we'll get a taste of what life would be like without it. I already feel like a ...
I just barfed in my mouth...Chad et al (pop diva extraordinary) from nickel back are in customs beside me. Must not punch. Must not punch... Fawn
I certainly hope that destruction and injustice won't rule the mammories of this weekends 24hrs of Summer Solstice for the majority. Once again North America's largest 24hr race was incredibly well coordinated, planned and considered. Thanks Chico Racing, staff, volunteers and other souls. Obviously, weather was a factor. Possibly THE factor. For the purposes of brevity and to avoid cliche, nothing further on this matter needs to be exhumed in ...
Three point five hours and dropping to the start of SUMMER SOLSTICE solo. Eight hours ago, last solo standing. I hate my friends. True friends aren't friends. They're instigators. I didn't order this. I don't want this. Really, I HAVE to go. Thankfully KHS racer sportif Josh Hall offered the use of his man hammock (presumably in lieu of going home). What the use of his sullied tighty whitey's has ...
Thanks for noticing the new digs at CORPORATE HQ. I appreciate that the content isn't yet brimming, by-golly, one day it will be. Now the benefit of being so industrious is the resulting lack of peripheral focus. A veritable distraction from the disaster that looms. 24 SOLOW Fuckit. It's true, my eyes hurt from peering at the blinding billboard that is mi-mac, my left hand is ultra-cramped from the mighty mouse ...
It appears that TEAM DICKY is wavering on his initial strategy to purge himself down to a size 2 prior to the Breck Epic. Freakishly compelled to compete in the feather weight category, he had convinced himself that emaciated would be more then just a fancy word for tye-died. He boldly predicted that protruding coccyx and bloated bellies (juxtaposed by stringy limbs) would be all the rage on the '09 tour. ...
Postponements on delays and subsequent apologies to the neglected ones. Yes we have no bananas. Misfit Psycles is pleased to meagerly announce the launch of the newly improved, not quite complete but better then nothing; HOME PAGE OF FLAMING DEATH Some new olde things that you may find there...

OFFICIAL NOTICE OF INTENT TO INSPECT: Objectives have been decided and declared. There will be a surprise inspection of the diSSent (Fe) assembly line at the Guelph FACTORY. Production and reproductions have carried on (masterfully) since our last visit. Hugh et al are doing some fine work. Worthy of their custom projects to be certain, custom projects take time. I didn't say slow...no one said slow. It just FEELS ...
Declarations of Intentions to thereby engage the BRECK EPIC were made exactly one week ago. 7 days to be precise. And since that time I have done my best to exploit the mere weeks available that remain in advance and before the big days that will come. Effective definitively and right away, back then, with extreme prejudice and absolutely no bench mark in sight, I began making a concerted effort to ...
