freeman transport

alright, get this. locked up in the mountains of montana a company called freeman transport has come up with this beaut. a steel track frame that breaks into two and can be reattached together with a single tool. this isn't one of those bulky hinged folding commuter bikes. smooth as butter and efficient as all get out. uses s and s couplings and comes with a carrying bag . take this bad boy on plane with you. 

who knew? what else are you guys hiding in montana?

photo explosion - last week of february

i forgot my camera at work last weekend, so i was unable to capture alot of madness that took place. this is my attempt to make up for it.


monday night - i went for a ride with daniel, brandon, and kristin. our plan was to go to an art show, but by the time we arrived it was closed. so we had pizza, i bought a nantucket nectar for a guy named kennedy, and we sampled gelato.



tuesday night - daniel, russell, and i took some of our high school friends to an arcade. i nearly reached a sensory overload.














finished the night with return of the five deadly venoms.wednesday - had an awful burrito for lunch. but managed to get some free pants from active thanks to my boy jon.

wednesday night - worked on my touring bike (forgot to take a photo). bought a soma woodie multi-tool from mission hills bike shop. those guys are way too cool in that shop. daniel came over and we went for a short ride to meet up with alicia and rachel at a a frozen yogurt joint in hillcrest. we then rode to the zoo. daniel fell off his bike twice on our way home... don't ask me how - i don't know.
11 tools in 1. not too bad. plus it looks tight. though, i'm pretty sure if i ever have to use the chain breaker i'll be swearing under my breath. it's kind of awkward to handle.

alicia loves it.


peanut butter, oreo, caramel.
daniel loves it.

kinda crazy to think that i've got elephants and gorillas living less than a mile from my house. i kinda hope they escape. that'd make a pretty dope adventure.
zoo was closed so we had to kick it with the chia elephant.

"The whopper comes in Nikon and Canon mounts and is clad all over in a green plastic armor methinks could easily make it mistaken for a rocket launcher if one happened to be in the vicinity of a nervous Blackwater contractor."
