700CMXing in the sun

If you're dumb like me you sell your BMX right when the nice weather kicks in.
So I put this together to muck around on to tide me over till I get a new one.
The 650X700c set up is original for this bike, but somehow the fork I have lets me bar spin.

Two Latunas - before shots

I finally found a Laguna, but somehow ended up with two. These things look even radder in the flesh. This one is an '82 and is going to have gold and black parts.

This one was built in 1979. It's going to be candyapple red with blue parts.

Vintage Solid Steel: Double Dee & Steinski

This week's podcast from Solid Steel continues the series of revisiting the classics from their vault. Those of you into the Hipsk Hopsk should have heard of The Lessons (parts 1, 2 & 3) which influenced a whole generation of DJ's.
Check it out here.
In an ode to these releases both DJ Shadow and Cut Chemist have released their own Lessons. In 2002 Shadow and Chemist teamed up with DDS for a live performance of The Lesson which you can watch on youtube here: Pt One & Pt Two
And since i couldnt embed the vids i thought i would put up this one.

Rat Racer Ride

Last couple of weeks Ive been helping out at stratons work AV2hire. Riding the 8 freight bikes around London. The boss david is a rad dude with some sweet ideas, check out this bass cannon he tows on a trailer.

He was telling me about how the 8 freight is designed by Mike Burrows the guy responsible for this oarsome bike

He also designed this rad recumbent called the ratracer!

It was really nice to ride and has loads of really interesting design features

Heres Straton discussing the advantages of monoblade forks and the importance of colour coordination

He also recommends taking your wallet out of your front pocket before you ride.
Anyway heres a vid about Burrow's laid back bikes

WOW!

I was going to write about vigilante justice after a lovely experience riding home involving some very angry man in a Merc'. I was looking for some images of bikes being thrown through car windows when i found these two little pics.

I feel much better now but im still wondering what are the best weapons a rider could carry...?
