Bike Move '09

Back in '09 I moved from one of house to another. My parents came down to help me move the bicycle collection that took my entire back yard. With a trailer and a truck bed we ended taking two loaded-down trips to get it all...

Tallbike Tattoo

That's right. I got one. Jail-style. In Ida, TN.

Kyle's Krazy Bixe!

Austin, TX


This bike was designed as a sail-bike. Like, with a damn sail! The sails can be removed so you can just ride with huge, crazy training wheels!


Solid tallbike. Two extra welded-in support bars. The steering connection is way cool. I didn't take a picture though. )=

Austin Critical Mass

Pretty good critical mass. A few tallbikes, a cargobike, lots of hipsters on fixies.

Austin, TX

As expected, Austin had some great bikes in it.


Tallbike with fucking antlers!!!


Excellent cargobike make from shitty bikes. The basket is so cool because the guy is a furniture builder by trade.


Sick DIY stretch bike.


Window washer's trike.


I love these old cargobikes.


Some recumbent. Check out the handlebar setup.


Ice cream trikes are everywhere in Austin.

Austin Bike Zoo!

These bikes were showcased for the grand re-opening of the Austin Yellow Bike Project. They have other crazy animal bikes that weren't out including an 80' rattlesnake! Wowzers!

Some Slaughterama Bikes

I was mostly too drunk to take pictures, and there were plenty of other people taking them. These are just a few of the bikes I took pictures of.

On our way to Richmond

2 or 3 more in trunk. For 3 people.

Art Gallery

I told you we aren't the only people who call this art. Pizza Crew was offered a spot in the University of Alabama, New College art gallery. Kind of nice to see them in a clean room instead of a dirty drive-way. They'll be up for about a month, or until we take them to go a ride.

Pixie Racer 1.0

We heard that they do pixie races at Slaughterama, so we built a racing bike. First we put a nice long stem and a lean-back bmx seatpost on so you won't hit your knees on the bars. I'm 6'2" and it fit me. Then a nice cushy seat, and finally a set of aerodynamic Scott bars. But, we flew too close to the sun. The chainring wasn't big enough.

Problem: How can you race with a tiny chainring?

Solution: take fucking dremel and cut out most of the drive-side chain stay. Brilliant.

Problem: stupid idea destroyed rear triangle.

Oh well, live and learn. Looks really cool though, huh?

Dude, Sweet Fixie...

Me, Ant, and Matt went out for a nice SS ride on a lovely day.

Kevin 2.0

Also in preparation for Slaughterama, we re-worked the Kevin. First I took apart the whole held-together-by-inner-tubes-and-magic seat assembly and replaced all the wackiness with a hose-clamp and a U-bolt. I even drilled a hole for the U-bolt. Go me!

With all this, we managed to move the seat a fair-bit further forward, and while we were at we threw a nicer looking/feeling seat on. Switched out the bars for mustache bars and gave the whole thing a nice shitty paint job. I'm proud.

Big Blue

Big Blue was made specifically for our recent trip to Slaughterama, which I will post on later. We wanted to bring freakbikes, but we needed a way get them onto a VW Jetta with a roof rack. A 2-frame tallbike would have been too unstable, so we dreamed up this beast, based loosely on the Kevin Bike.

It's just one of those cheap blue Huffy's that I always see everywhere, with fork and drive-train
flipped. Then we threw a set of these massive ape-hangers, which really deserve thier own post, too. The seatpost is a piece of conduit we found outside of Baby House and the sissy-bar, obviously, is a crutch. It's held together entirely by U-bolts and hoseclamps. It rides pretty well, but needless to say, it's pretty rickety.
