How about a slice of knowledge cake?
It’s knowledge you need, and will in any way benefit your existence, plus at least for the moment it will taste pretty good.
Just kidding.
Kicking things off right, and straight out of the gate, it’s no secret that I’m a big fan of the Photoshops, and though I’m not terribly good at it, I have a grand appreciation for those who are. Like for example, this fellow, who injects himself into stock photos for a bit of added panache;
Upon looking at these, I did this;
And speaking of the Photoshops, it was in the comment section of this post where the Not-So-Serious-Cyclist conveyed a bit of dissapointment that I hadn’t properly done the following image justice;
Reading his words cut like a knife and left me feeling hurt, and confused. Not only because I’d let myself down, but more importantly, because I’d let the esteemed readership down.
So by god, I did what was right and vow to never let anything like this happen again;
Now that we have that handled, might you care to watch Tony Trujillo jump some fences?
He skates like he hates the ground.
Truly one of a kind, that kid is.
In news of random messages, and emails, and varying kinds of contact, Ondine got in touch with a feel-good tale of the ages;
“I was sitting in public with my 66 year old mom last night & look down to see that she’s wearing the fuck unicorn socks I bought for my brother for Xmas. “Mom, do you see what that image is?” …and then have to explain it in graphic detail… “Well I just don’t see it. These are comfy ladies socks and I like them.”
Go’ne wit ya bad self, grammy B.”
Of course the socks to which Ondine is referring are those linked up there in her email;
At least one mom can’t be wrong.
If you yourself would like a pair, I’m out of the small/medium sizes, but I have a few left in large. Swoop on them now, or forever hold your peace.
*Damn, dawgs. Now I’m out of those… However I still have a few pairs of the S/Med and L/XL Black Soul socks left.
Might any one remember this post from last summer, in which the theft of a very nice person named Rebecca’s custom Moots one speed got took?;
I’m pleased to note that a short time after it was taken, it was reunited with her and everyone lived happily ever after.
That is until this past November when she was creamed by a car while on a road ride. Again, the worst case scenario was averted and as it turns out, she was assisted by a good samaritan just after the ride. The thing is now she needs to find that good samaritan for help with the investigation, so here is my official plea-
“I need some assistance in tracking down someone who was on my friend Rebecca’s accident scene minutes after it happened on Nov. 1st, 2014. He rode up and helped her get off the road right after she had been hit by a car and had broken its windshield with her head. The collision occured on Tunnel Road in Oakland, around 2:30 PM, Nov.1st, right after the rise in the road and right before the stop light that takes you to the left up Tunnel. She needs his help with the investigation. If you could share this or know who he is, please have him contact me and I can put him in touch with her.”
So if by some strange coincidence, you’ve heard about this story from a friend, or a friend of a friend, or a friend of a friend of a friend, please give me a shout.

As always, I thank you for your time and consideration on this matter.
Now that we’re done, I think we can all agree that today’s cake was reasonably satisfying
TNT,, Jumping fences and killing it,, how I want to ride when i grow up..
Don’t ya mean “got tooken”?
The English language is going to hell in a hand basket I tell ya.
“Got took”, geez….
You’re clearly new here.
Skates as though he has surfed. Pushes edges, wants G force. This, after living in San Diego for 28 years, is what I miss most about watching kids in the park in Wisconsin. They just don’t get the lower body drive that pulls off the perfect bottom turn in an eight foot wave. I don’t see aggression, I see commitment.
Never let yourself think you’re done learning the photoshop.
TT has been one of my faves for a long time. His roll-ins alone are legendary. GA NARLY.
Penis microphone is my personal fav.
