it happened again
Can't Post
i just saw some riders hugging the curb and riding at ten mph and it made me sick. and these are some big boys too. maybe it's just me but when i ride, i own the road.
kings and queens step aside.
yes.
It's not about the bike, it's just along for the ride.

that's pretty funny. you wanna hear about how i'm not one of those riders who try and manipulate the law by asking for the hate crime rule if someone yells something at me but rather how i've broken my knuckles and some windshields when i catch irrate drivers?
twice so far...and counting.

howsabout the time in Los Angeles when i got into a fight without a cop? he lost and pretty badly at that.. he was at fault in the beginning now mind you and i lost all control and all sense of right and wrong but when you're me, that's an easy thing to do.
well, used to be me. i regret that but it happened. i am glad that i stopped him from beating a homeless guy though. he'll never do that again.
wanna hear about the time i was shot? howsabout the time i was in a car and we had a drive by pulled on us and my friend got it in the head.
howsabout the time a guy tried to stab me? i bled bad that night.
let me know.

okay. the cop: i was coming out of a club and noticed a disturbance around the corner. we all went to check it out and there wa this guy getting beat by a cop, and without mercy too. the guy was on the ground and bleeding and people were hollering and i shouted something along the lines of "Hey, leave him alone!" and "That's enough!". Phucking dumb ass told me to "Shut the phuck up and mind my own business."
that was all she wrote. before i knew what i was doing i had his beton in my hand and i was clubbing him, without mercy. i woke up from a complete blackout to find blood all over me, the cops blood.
at least he now knows that pain of what that thing can do.
good times. not really, i'm just not big on people getting pushed around. i stick up for the underdog is pretty much it.

the drive by (one of them): hillcroft @ 59s. middle of the night. we were heading south on hilcroft and acme up to the freeweay, the feeder light which was red. we were in the right turn lane and stopped with the blinkers on. i was in the front passenger seat. a small truck with cholos pulls up to our left, just as my bud looks over the left to look for oncoming traffic. they thought we were looking at them and started off with the bs. we made our right onto the feeder and they followed, making the right from the middle lane. they came up on my side and started hollering something or another to which i said to my bud Dave, the driver, "You gotta do something.", as in ram them or hit the brakes or something.
they pulled back and stayed behind us for a second and then came up on the drivers side at full speed and accelerating and then five shots rang out, breaking all the windows in the bug, the car we were in and they got onto the freeway and took off.
my friend shawn got it in the head. he was alright though.

There's a slight downhill, nah, just an invisible declne one mile from my house on a well policed road. Speed limit:25mph. I go 27, hoping to hit 30 so I can get at least a warning, if not a genuine fit-for-framing ticket. So disappointing. Been trying for years. So maybe I'm too close to the curb?

i couldn't say as i'd be the one you'd be coming up on from the rear who was getting the ticket for going 40.

It's not a real genuine hill. Even a ball wouldn't roll down it, so no way would I be tailgating you at 40. Plus I'm not in the middle of the road where you are.

you're talking to the guy who turned around his 1.9 panaracers so as to have maximum rolling resistance on his mountain bike and would ride alongside or draft big rigs, hitting 30 + on my own on the open road.
