TWINS the Movie.

Location: Liverpool Street, Sydney CDB/CBF
Bike: Cinello Vigorelli WITH BEEF!
Owner: Arnie

You may remember something similar from a previous post. I was in Sydney for work last week and I spotted this rare gem. I say rare as I'm still to see radness rep'd in Sydney like Melb.

This bad boy defiantly pops more than its brother.

You could say its the Arnie to his DeVito.





MY INSPIRATION

The inspiration for my Watermelon Colourway:




I think I need to make one of these when I eventually get on the road.

JUICY FRUITS

Bike: Juicy Fruits
Location: The Evelyn, Brunswick St
Owner: Alastair


Loz and I were doing our best to ride off the HUGE breakfast that we ate on Sunday. All was well and good until we became thirsty so we stopped for jugs at the Evelyn.


We had only been there a short while when we were graced with this beauty. Wowza the colour of those Aero's really popps off so nicely against the chrome Bianchi frame. Get me a napkin for my seat.

I heart the Joocy, this is one of my favourite videos OF ALL TIME:




Whut Whueert hollaaa!!!

Yo your mates bikes were pretty rad too...

MINT SLICE


Bike: Mint Slice
Location: Bruns on a Suns
Owner: TBC; email fool if this is you

Spring has sprung in Melbourne and I spotted this lovely last sunny Sunday on Brunswick St.

It is pretty fresh, minty fresh. The chrome and clover green colourway reminds me of Mint Slice biscuits. They form part of Nick's regular diet and there's always a pack in the fridge.


The oxford style grips and saddle add a nice contrast to the green. It's like brown and green was a match made in heaven:

OMFG YUM to the billion squared, how good do they look?



Even Schapelle's on the MS train:

LOW LOW LOW LOW LOW LOW LOW

Bike: Sapphire Lowrider
Location: Brunswick St
Owner: TBC, email fool if this is you!

I spotted this sweet ride walking up Brunswick on Sunday, it was close to the Little Creatures Brewery. My Lord I heart that place. LURVE.

Front view:

Low Riders are so rad. So impractical. Have you ever tried to ride one? Hard work! The cranks are tiny. You just end up giving up on the peddaling and scoot along like a fool.

Case in point:


BA HA HA AHA AHAHAHA

But srsly, I feel her pain.

I had a lowrider once that was a gift from a ex boyfriend who shall remain nameless. Since it was such a bitch to ride said boyfriend raped it for parts and pimped out his BMX.

Hmpfh. NOT HAPPY JAN.

Side view:

Rad bike. If you can do more than scoot my hat goes off to you good sir.

Loz and I snapped this little grommie walking up the end of The Chap. My neck is still a bit tender from snapping it so hard.

Kids take note: It's never too early to have a rad bike. You have to be born with steeze though.

They don't sell that shit at Strictly BMX

ROYAL FLUSH UPDATE



I forgot about daylight savings and almost missed the start of the race.

So of course in my scramble to get out the door I didn't charge my camera. It died after these shots. FML.

Send me your pics pls.

Other than that, absolutely classic day. So many nice bikes and congrats to DD who took out the top prize.

ROYAL FLUSH - ALLEYCAT


This Sunday! This will be one of the raddest races in Melbourne to date.

"YOU DON’T HAVE TO BE THE FASTEST TO TAKE HOME SOME LOOT!"

The SBC crew - the raddest bike crew in town - have arranged this race with a vegas element so that not only do you collect cards from 5 known checkpoints, there is also a Joker checkpoint that you have to find using a CLUE and YOUR BRAIN. So it won't just be the fastest rider who takes out the prizes.

Once you get all of your cards there is a 6th checkpoint where you can swap your cards to get your best poker hand. Then you race to the end, EASY.

PO PO PO PO PO PO PO POKER FACE

I will be manning one of the checkpoints, come say hi

This bike is so up itself I bet it went to Scotch and rowed in the 1st eight.

GIANT BMX

Bike: Giant BMX
Location: Elgin St, Carlton
Owner: TBC, email us if this is YOU!

Um... sorry to break it to you giant BMX: You ain't that giant. Actually you are pretty small.

This bike is cool, but it has a bad case of
small man syndrome.

Like how Tom Cruise apparently never allowed 'Our' Nicole to wear high heels, or those rockabilly type of short dudes that wear those horrendous shoes with the lifts in them.

My lord how I hate those ugly, ugly shoes.

Get ready for your close up:

YOUR GETAWAY IS RAD

Snatched from the Herald Sun Website

British convicts pedal to freedom
By staff writers
From: NewsCore
September 17, 2010 10:14AM

TWO teenage convicts pedalled to freedom after they were let out of jail for the day to take a cycling test.
Connor Dewhurst, 14, and Sam Thomas, 13, were allowed to sit their cycling proficiency test - an exam British children must take to prove they can safely ride bicycles on the road.

However, the pair proved rather more proficient than supervisors were expecting as they sped away from a juvenile detention centre in Manchester in northwestern England.
Cops think they pedalled 11km to one of the city's major train stations before hopping on a tram to complete yesterday's escape bid.

Dewhurst had been convicted of attacking a police officer while Thomas was locked up for robbery, Greater Manchester Police said.

They are still on the run.

Nice One. What I don't understand is why you need to take a test to ride a bike, LAWL the poms are nuts.

CYCLING WORLD CHAMPS...

Are in Geelong... wtf?

Who knew? Actually I remember someone telling me but I forgot.

So last weekend is the football grand final so we've decided to get the hell out of Melboune. Gtown was a ghost town aside from all the people working getting ready for the cycling champs.

Slightly eerie.

So many window displays:

That bike has been struck by the disco stick.
