Digital is nice but I have a thing for film.

Some images taken with my Nikon FE and F100. There is just something about the dreamy quality that film gives images that I cannot get enough of. I can't wait to develop the roll of 120 film I have.

Breakfast.

I think I'll pick Austin!

Classic Nikons.

I'm getting fixed!

Well..... just getting back on my FIXED gear. It has been over 4 months since my ankle has been healed up. I still have some swelling but at least I'm walking normally. I've been riding my bicycle but only the geared townie bike. I have been hesitant to ride the fixed gear 'cause well... it has no brakes and I need my leg/ankle strength to stop.
I bought a set of moustache handlebars at the Philly bike expo and I decided to try them on the Fixed. After the install I wanted to test ride it....So, I got dressed and headed out the door.
I LOVE MY FIXED GEAR!!! So light and nimble!! It's really a blast to ride and I missed it so much!

Today my legs are sore and they remind me of the workout a single speed bike gives me.


Here's to healing and riding bikes!!!!  Ching ching!!!

ciao!

OK...Part 2.

So here are some images from Via Bicycle in Philly. It's an awesome place! If you ever find yourself in Philly and if you love bikes, you should stop in. It is literally a museum of old bike stuff. The owner, Curtis, is a real standup guy and gave us a tour of the place.

We then finished off with a cheesesteak from Geno's. It was ok...in my opinion. Ohh... just make sure you order in English and don't wear a t-shirt from Pat's.....

Hasta Luego....
