Re: Skipton's Gallery and Random Photos (week in review)

I really enjoy riding around the city at night. I bet it's really neat there. Probably a little creepy at times too I suppose.
Always enjoy seeing the lake.

THANKS! Randy, I always have fun riding at night. The only times I have been creeped out is late at night with impaired drivers. Try to stick to the lake front path as much as possible late at night.

Nice view,Cool bikes and Awesome Crew Skipton

THANKS!

Lots of my coworker's ride fixies got to ride Brandon's last night.
Checking out his new 50-16 tooth gear setup.

I can't help but smile when I ride on one these! So FAST and light, Most of my seats weigh more then this whole bike

Would love to build one some day but.... with a brake :wink:

I have always loved the way that you show off your city with your bike!!!

Is that video in a parking garage or your work? Either way it looks like a cool place to ride.

Great Video! Looks like you were having a lot of fun
Those Bianchi's are really nice and light, I lusted after a chrome Pista for a couple of years
When I finally bought my Felt Dispatch, I changed the rear cog to 13 (32stock/13)
and it was light (16.5lbs)and fast! I left just the rear brake on and loved the control I had
Just remember, young kids ride fixies because they heal faster :lol:

Re: Skipton's Gallery and Random Photos*next build sneak peek*

Is that the twin bar you showed me? Are you going to shave the seat post and have him sit on the fender?
The 7 speed should make that bike fly! With fenders + 7spd, he'll be your winter riding buddy
I like the stem/handlebars, looks kinda like a board tracker 8)

Steve,
Yep that's the twin bar you saw.
LOL! No Taber said he wanted a real seat.
Lots more to come.
