Put pegs on and changed my brake pads for some clear odyssey ones. The brakes already feel loads better and grinding is fun at the minute.

Best ride to work to date but I need metal pedals or at least jcpc's again. Oh and I have some hills to bomb if anyone wants to join.

Put some cult dak grips on. They feel surprisingly comfy, digging the mini flange.

The one that goes to the west entrance of my job is dangerous since it goes right into a haul road and it's bumpy as fuck. The other one is to the east main entrance and it has a blind curve but it's smooth. And the one coming from the opposite end of the east entrance is just a straight shot down hill but the train tracks make it dangerous.

Id like to do something to make my bike ride better. It rides now, so that prevents any sort will that might jeopardize that fragile state It exists in.

Best grips I've ever had,once the illusion micro pattern wears away and they're completely flat its the best feeling grip .

You're also a fool if you didn't get them in gum rubber.

got sent weird over a 2 foot dirt lip, tried to leapfrog over the bars when it nosedived and then fell to my chest/shoulder/chin and shredded my left nipple. got dizzy, then got freaked out realizing my left nipple was all bloody and fucked up. before that i had good luck and finally managed to 360 tailtap to fakie on a bank to curb along with some abubacas and fufanus.

had my rear tire explode out of nowhere. I was just sitting there and boom! wtf. lucky for me my friend had an extra tire in the truck I could use to keep riding. Then my brakes suddenly stopped working and I saw that one arm had completely lost all tension...lame. fixed it and kept riding, then played an intense game of BIKE with this fat 13 year old who got me to try a one hander flying out of the mini ramp haha. then that kid tried doing a fakie hop, fell and gashed his leg open on his axle (about 1 or 2 inches wide, 4-5 inches long) which pretty much ended my session for the day.

Relaced my back wheel with new spokes and replaced my broken pivotal seat.

Switched from Tall boy to Montana bars, and put a cult half link into my old shimano chain.
