5th and Nueces Collision

I don't know too many details. I was leaving work and saw all this. There was a truck with a smashed windshield and a bike demolished in the middle of the road. The cyclist was nowhere to be found so I can only assume he/she was taken to the hospital.

If anyone has any details please let us know.

You'll be in our thoughts....whoever you are.

do you know what's good for you?

beats and booze.

jordan wants me to want you to come out to plush tomorrow night and get down with flashlights.

Save the date...

July 4th it's going down in Houston, Texas.

IT'S A SCAVENGER RACE!!! With plenty of bitchin' sides, prizes and booze! Bring your bike, bag, lock, and entry fee to "The Lot" over on Dowling and Polk in H-town, 4:20 as usual. I'll repost this as the date draws nearer, but mark your calendars now geezers!

third coast fixed

from elliot

www.ThirdCoastFixed.com will be up and ready tomorrow with admin logins for everyone involved. It's a collective of riding, tricks, bikes, food, all things Texan! I would like at least a post a week from all cities and some pictures, etc. All the posting should be open source. We are including links to Texas made bike stuff, feetbelts, bags, hats, bike shops, etc. By we I mean you all. I love you guys!


already! we have been talking about making a Texas fixed blog since last fall. we have had impromptu meetings after out of town alleycats with our friends from all over the state and i am proud to say that we are finally getting it off the ground. this collective blog is going to be the first of it's kind anywhere, and it is going to showcase us, Texas, and all of the things that happen here that do not happen anywhere else.

i know it goes without saying, but it bears repeating: Texas has the most dynamic and unified fixed gear community anywhere, and it is time that we prove that to everyone. part of why the Fast Folks/Death Pedal party was such a success yesterday is because we had so many people show up from out of town. riders from dallas, denton, houston, san marcos, college station, and austin were all representing their hometowns and our state by showing up and participating in the official opening of the first track boutique in Texas; we were all celebrating natalie's success with the shop, eric's success with his recent sponsorship (represent!), kareem's success with the Death Pedal video, and our bad-ass Central Texas community!

pictures will be up soon, but they will not be on this site.

they will be at third coast fixed dot com

TOMORROW IS BIKE TO WORK DAY!!!!!

The Austin Cycling Association is coordinating, with the help of plenty of local sponsors, free breakfast for those who take up their steed and ride to work tomorrow. If you work as a labourer, dishwasher, therapist, mechanic, prostitute, student, etc., take your bike out and get some FREE breakfast. There are spots all over town, check out the map of where to get the grub, and check the ACA calendar for more info and future events.

super sick edit filmed by oskar, who also did a montage of his spring break in houston/austin which includes some crazy partying that we all participated in.

puckett is definitely onto some next level shit, and he's only been riding fixed since last fall so i can't wait to see what comes next!

and elliot's cameo is the shit!

21st street coop

great article in the daily texan this week about will wolfe's not so little side project, the newly expanded 21st street coop bike shop. this man is busy! besides being the first guy to win TWO fab fridays to date, a upperclassmen in the geo school at ut, and an avid mountain, road, and cyclocross racer, this guy spent 40-60 hours a week this last month building this place from the ground up!

seriously, this guy makes us all look bad! get out there and ride some this month, and maybe you'll have a chance to take the fab friday bag from him!

robster craw!

college station was this:















from l to r, clockwise:
john rensho from the atx, yours truly on the craps, justin from sm (bootleg 3 y'all!), jesse gordon from college station who moved here today, some kid, ben w from sm, and aj from college station. texas unite! third coast risin!



well, college station was a lot of things, but craps was a big part of it. so was jesse and i taking everyone's dollars and buying ourselves lunch the next day.

thanks for the pic, z-ro.

like the sign says

kareem accidentally sent me a copy of death pedal with no sound for the premier next week. then he went to europe. he's working it out somehow, but the silent version is still mucho entertaining!
