I found out the problem that was with my tire and totally resolved the problem! I went in to the bike shop with my friend and we brought the old tire, new tire and the tube and we asked the pros if they had any advice. The guy was also confused that the tires were [...]

Maybe. After hitting up a coffee sesh at Harbor House with a friend we came back to my house and looked at my damn tire. I told him the problem and even demonstrated how the tire comes off, and since he’s been riding more than me I figured he’d have a little inside tip on [...]

I bought a new tire and tube last night and so far it’s not working out. I installed the tire and tube fine and I went on my way on my ride and in less than 5 minutes I felt a bump in my ride. Every revolution I felt a bump. I stopped when it [...]

I had a great ride today! I hauled some SERIOUS ass. I’m very happy that I beat my “to” the beach time from my house by about 5 minutes. I’ve knocked it down to about 23mins. Now that ain’t half bad. I woke up pretty early today, well, early by my standards, 9:45a to do [...]

Went on a ride today after work and I was planning on riding my bike to the gym. About 2.5 miles to the gym, 8 miles on the stationary and then 2.5 back. Sounds good right? Only thing is that it helps to bring the bike lock with you. So, half way there I remembered [...]

Zomg, another tube popped. Now, I think I got it 100% taken care of this time. I was all ready to head out and take the bike to the beach early this afternoon and when I started to pack the bike up, I noticed that the front tire was flat again. I almost expected it, [...]

First post in 2 1/2 months, that’s good. Well, I guess I have a good reason to post tonight, I’m feeling very inspired. I’ve been overweight pretty much since middle school and it’s no secret to anyone that knows me either. Me and the words healthy and fitness are very rarely used in the same [...]
