Riding in Circle has a new website. Their blog is live, as is their store where you can purchase tshirts and bikes.

Check out these frames!

43-year-old Graeme Obree is planning on regaining his previous hour-record. Amazing. If you aren’t aware of Obree’s previous UCI-scorning career, make sure to rent the Flying Scottsman. It’ll give you the run down and complete history of his cycling career.

This bike fucking rules too. Reynolds 653 not fucking carbon fiber. I’ve always said, it’d be so rad if professional cyclists got up on some nostalgia and rode steel frames. I’m rooting for ya man!

My good friend and the person I’ve bought a few bikes from, Sasha is selling his Guerciotti GPS7200 Pista “project” and parts. He got this frame years ago. Recently, the frame had top and down tubes replaced and the frame and fork aligned by Bilenky in Philadelphia. Frame is 58cm ctt, 57.5cm c-c top tube.

Believe me, if it were a tad bigger, I would have bought it by now. All it needs is a strip / paint job and it’s ready to roll. Beautiful project. The pantographed stem and chainring is worth over $200 alone.

He wants $620 for NYC locals, or $650 shipped within the continental US.

If you’re interested, email me and I’ll connect you.

Seattle, heads up! This week’s going to be a lot of fun. There’s a women’s-only alleycat, CoreWhore and the West Side Invite. Head to Bike Bloc for more information.

Jeff at All-City just wrote up a good review on their forthcoming track frame, the Big Block. Head over to the All-City blog to check it out.

Oh yeah and how about some white cranks?

BOOM SON. Bernin’ it down with the GOrilla crew!

I think The Chosen Few says it best…

The time has come
All the chosen time to put down your bongs
Take up a knife end all life
Legalize drugs and murder
Satanas Luciferus we pledge these souls to you
Now Satans slaves, your lives weren’t saved
Die now in the shadow of the pentagram

Or, snap backs might be more your steez. Coming soon!

Ok, this is why a small, local company with a direct link to manufacturing makes sense. Outlier has heard your cries for a skinny cut pant and here it is!

Different body types need different clothing, and at Outlier, they are out to make clothing that fits all sorts of cyclists shapes.

The OUTLIER Climber pants are a full on reengineering of slim cut pants for a cyclists world. The innovative vertical yoke removes most of the traditional stress points that cycling generates in a garment, allowing for a free range of movement. The curved waistband is higher in the back to keep certain areas hidden and lower in the front to allow you to lean forward and ride in comfort. The spread back pockets are easy to access and positioned so you don’t sit on them while riding. Cut slim for comfort, form and aesthetics.

Made with Outlier’s 4Season Lotus fabric, these pants have four-way stretch which allow full movement on and off the bike. Quick drying, breathable, water and grease resistant to keep you crisp and comfortable in any situation. Made in New York City and available in Black and Slate Gray at www.outlier.cc for $180.

Guys… Thanks so much. New Haven was awesome. The Scorchers really know how to host an event. Friday night, Ghostship Clothing sponsored a night-time trick event. We rode a few spots downtown and on the Yale campus before the cops came and kicked out us. Here are some pics.

Saturday, rather than doing the race, I hung out with Zack from Open and Justin Keena. Riding around a new city is awesome. There were so many spots to ride and we tried to hit everything we saw. Come Saturday night, we were all beat, my wrist was bruised and it didn’t take much to convince people to head to the bar.

Big thanks to everyone who hung out, rode, drank, got naked at the bar, took pictures and came in from cities all over New England.

Race results are here and more information to follow. Tyrant BMX has some more pics up here too.

Sorry for the lack of pictures, but I left my SD card at home! More will surface eventually I’m sure.
