The Mutandem LLLLIIIIVVVVVEEEZZZZ!!! AND FREAKS THA BEACH!!!

Only from the fields of muck and hazardous grime known as the Jerz could something so horrifying arise!


Each bottle it carries contains a different biochemical cocktail that will mutate the shit out of you!


One of them can morph a Pinarello Prince and it's matching spandex rider into one of those topless hippie chicks riding a float at the Mermaid Day Parade. Shit, one of em' will fuck you up so bad that you'll have to get high to feel sober!!


..and to think this all began with a ridiculous doodle:


Which BTW is the ONLY thing I put down on paper when building this fucking thing!

More to be seen on my flickr set..

To give you a better idea of how I built this monstrosity, here's a photo of it after I had completed welding up the superstructure:



..aaand this'll give you a better idea of what it was ACTUALLY like while welding up the superstructure:

mucho retardo no?

So yeah, the photos pretty much suck.. BUT.. I've got a few other ideas for different configurations for this beast of all beastly bicycles.. So you can expect to see a lot more from this monstrosity in the near future..

I was a bit rushed with this build because I knew I would get untold amounts of shit from the Canadians if I didn't complete it in time for the Freak tha Beach ride this past Saturday. So, like any responsible adult, I took the day off Friday to work on a fucking mutated tall bike tandem thing. I ran some errands and I spent from 2pm to 3am building it up and working out as many kinks as possible.. Then got up at 8:30am and worked out a couple more before heading out to meet the crew..

I noticed that Morgan was documenting our journey so I decided it was enough that I pilot the Mutandem alone. Fucking thing weights in at 47.8 lbs!!! You don't even want to know how much I wanted to die climbing on that thing with a strong headwind.. I'll post his photos from his post once he posts them (?!!)

To properly arrive in style, I saw it fit to totally crash the Mutandem and pull a scorpion whilst sliding on the pavement and sand.. Fortunately there just happen to be a small child at the ready who was kind enough to help me to my feet. Which is more than I could say for the rest of my cycling compatriots who all thought it would be in my best interest to burst out laughing instead..

The one photo Morgan got between chuckling:


After having a nosh on the sandys and other tid bits we brought we went ahead and took some snaps..

The Mutandem was nice enough to BUST down the fence for us so we had an adequate place to photograph and putz around:


THA FREAKS:


Myself getting rad on the Mutandem:


I prefer the first shot despite being too closely cropped in. Mostly due to the extra special level of ravishing my beard assists me in achieving..

Morgan taking his turn to get a bit of that radness as well while also looking very seductive at the same time..


Morgan looking slightly less seductive, but possibly more ravishing on my other tall he's been riding around this past week:


Well.. Haley was amused anyways..


Until of course my dumbass fell on her later on during the ride home and smushed her rear wheel- oops! Replacement CXP33 is on it's way STAT (THANX BENZZZZZ AGAINZZZZZ)

So it was a wonderful day with wonderful people and there really is no way in shit's name I am EVER riding that fucking bike more than 40 miles in one day!

For all intensive purposes the build went as well as can be expected. So I'm pretty fucking stoked on it! ..and slightly embarrassed in a weird- Wow WTF am I doing with my life to make me want to go to such great lengths with building something so ridiculous?! -kind of way..

Anyways, a big shout out goes out to Lyle for technical advice and coming up with the actual name of all names for it! Along with Lady J for inspiring me to get off my ass and just complete the freaking thing already.. and OF COURSE.. To Andy at Ben's Cycle for coming through with all the juicy parts as per usual..

EXPECT MORE FROM THE MUTANDEM AND FREAK THA BEACH RIDES IN THE COMING MONTHS!!!

NOS Sugino 75 discs??????

Andy was teasing me about some gnarly shit he was going to have photographed soon but I wasn't expecting anything like these mid 90's Sugino 75 discs- SO RAD!!!



I totally had him put me down for one. I mean come on! How can you say no??

They're still on the hunt for some sort of proper track conversion kit. But if you get one of those freewheel track adapters and a little J&B Weld the shit works just as lovely. That's what I did with the HED rear wheel on my Jackson. I mean, yeah, the thing is stuck as a tarck wheel. So you're technically 'ruining' it since you can't go back. But who the hell wants to ride 6-7 speed anyways??

FREAK THA BEACH RIDE THIS SATURDAY!!!

UPDATE:

I just spent 13, count em', THIRTEEN HOURS trying to get the Mutandem together all day yesterday. My hands are. SO FUCKED. it's not even funny. AND. I still have a couple of minor things to do before I head out. AAANNNNDD. I got word super late/early last night that my friend Lady J broke BOTH her arms after falling off her bike trying to avoid colliding with some black clad bitches she didn't see til the last second..

I basically don't even want to ride a fucking bike today let alone a freakbike all the way out to the Rockaways BUT.. The show must go on and freak bikes must be ridden! So enough of this shit already. If you're interested, 11:30 meet at Army Park in Williamsburg where the bike path empties out. Then we'll roll out at 11:45 to meet up with the rest of the group at Noon at Grand Army Plaza..

HOPE TO SEE YOU THERE!!


Brought to you by ProjektB be and me, CyclingWMD..

I'm DESPERATELY Trying to complete my Mutandem build though I'm not sure if it's going to happen.. Shout out to Big A from tha sheltah- WHEYOUATsssSUCKA?????!!!!!!!!

Errands, errands, and MORE errands...

This morning was full of running around and picking shit up..

Got myself a 'Original White Mana' T shirt while getting some b-fast..


Despite the fact that it's a labeled 'Medium' it could fit a fucking house. You know, because rather than promote health and awareness, as opposed to sitting around on your fat fucking ass watching American Idol and learning about global issues via Sports Illustrated, let's embark on the wonderous thing which is Vanity sizing.. Fucking lazy slob cunt mother fuckers! IF YOU'RE FUCKING OVERWEIGHT YOU SHOULD BE AWARE OF IT!!! Not, oh hey I'm a medium even though in reality I'm an Triple XL.. Fucking country.. I'm not saying you have to be a perfectly contoured rail or anything, because that's kind of unnatural too, but at least make SOME sort of effort so I dont have to listen to your fat ass weezing while walking up a slight incline...
Yeah.. ANYways.. Gonna have to dump that bitch in a pot of boiling water before tossing in the dryer on full blast.. Probably cut the sleeves too before hoping in my whip to cruise the Jersey scene..

douche..

Stopped by Fedex to pick up a new toy because I'm fucking retarded..


Lots of hugz and kizzez to my Boy Budda! ;-)

Oh and here's a hint: It's not a Raleigh..

aaaaannd stopped by this warehouse joint that sells these rad 15 gallon steel tight head drums along with Home Depot for some paint and a FUCKLOAD of washers.. Oh and some Custom paint at the auto paint supply store by my place..


AAAAAANNNNDDDDD(Y).. Got a MASSIVE fucking box full of good shit from Ben's Cycle last night to play with today while playing hooky from work and HAVING FUN BIKE DAY INSTEAD!!!


Now if you don't mind I'm going to get the hell off the intertard and git ta werk! Bitches best be showin' up to the ride tomorrow if you're in the area.. More details on meet times etc. coming soon!

I fuuuuuucking despise Razor scooters but..

..when you start doing backside 360's down double sets or no handed front flips on them even I have to shut up and admit to this shit being pretty gnarly:




DSC Footage from DonoFlip on Vimeo.

My buddies Tom and Esao finally made me watch this shit last night despite my reluctance. They told me about it a while ago but I just wasn't havin' it. Though once I gave in I was pretty much as shocked as I've ever been in my entire life!

I'm sorry but I have to say these guys def have the edge over anything I've seen done trick wise on a fixer AND THEY'RE RIDING FUCKING RAZOR SCOOTERS!!! I mean, don't listen to what my dumbass has to say by any means when it comes to having fun but fuck man.. Razors scooters.. Whodathunkit?!!

Special limited edition CyclingWMD Adidas Super Star 2's!!!

YO CHECK OUT HOW DOPE THIS FLY AKSHUN IS SUHYNNN!!!


Okay, so maybe not but I mean come on- that's about as close as it'll EVER get.. Oh and no worries, I totally DESPISE the whole sneaker culture thing so this is probably the first AND last time I'll ever mention sneakers. I just like Adidas shell toes cause they're rad to ride and skate in. Double duty sneaks are def a +

In any case I totally bought myself a couple of pairs of these hideously awesome things! THANKFULLY they came with a set of black laces as well cause those bright orange ones are a bit much even for me..

BOB JACKSON TRACK FRAMES BLOW OUT!!!

As many of you may know I've been helping my buddy Dennis out with selling some of these AMAZINGLY RAD Custom Bob Jackson frames. Well here's what he's still got available so be sure to take a look and send em to your friends. ESP the friends who think it's super duper cool and or dumb enough to spend $700+ on a freaking 2 year old used Pista Concept. I have one of those along with one of these frames and the ride from the BJ steel is INFINITELY much better!

$875 + Shipping!!!

LOTS more pics on my Flickr set too!

Details include Reynolds 631, Paul adjustable dropouts, Dimpled rear ST, Two colors, Lug lining and Drilled front fork. Geo for the frames with the red type is a little more lax than the ones without. Both geos are great for street riding..

53ct ST CTT, 53cmTT

Sexy Black Matte with PINK panels:


56cm ST CTT, 56cm TT

Classic British Racing Green with Cream White panels and (Partial) Blue lug lining:


By 'partial' I mean the person originally painting the frame must've spaced and missed a couple of spots. Easily touched up. This frame is also built up right now but have NEVER been used. Slight discount could be applied..

57cm ST CTT, 56cm TT

Matte Grey with Red front panel and Blue lining:


55cm ST CTT, 55cm TT

Bronze with Blue lug lining:


51cm ST CTT, 52cm TT

Silver with Red and Yellow lug lining:


49cm ST CTT, 52cm TT

PLEASE NOTE: This frame is indeed light metallic blue but does not have the goldish panels as this one pictured. Just plain w/lug lining as the one pictured above. Photo TK


55cm ST CTT, 55cm TT
Silver with White front panel and Blue lug lining and ST bands:


To those of you who are SERIOUSLY interested, please contact me and we can go from there:

thetriplec@hotmail.com

Also, ordering one direct from Jackson with the same features and shipping is going to cost about the same AND will take who knows how long to actually be built. These are all ready to go and located in the SF Bay Area..
