BRBLOLZ

After doing my April update on the GT rebuild I decided to fall off the planet in some sense. Of the many things I’ve been up to, riding has been the top. Even through the heat I was:

  • consistently riding 25 miles a week (which is more than most people ride in a year)
  • pursuing the rock and roll dream
  • looking under rocks for elusive, unfound jobs
  • training to be a roller derby referee
  • procuring WTF pics of WTF bikes for an upcoming weekly series of WTF Wednesday.

For July and August I may have only pulled 200ish miles, but now that September has hit and we have had an average temp shift of 20 degrees the rides are going to get longer; out of boredom and to vent.

And now for a taste of WTF Wednesday:
pengy

This is “Pengy",” the bike that started it all. Lets start with what is right about it: nothing. Moving on. If you need the seat that low you probably need a smaller frame. The frame/wheel combination makes for OMG LONGBIKEISLONG. Riser stem with drop bars which accomplishes…? Aerojoke. Top tube protector. (Yes, I used a top tube protector this summer, more on that later). All this combines to make one massive collection of WTF.
