100 Miles And Running
Hometown hero, DJ You B, is playing his last set in CT for some time. February 8th. Sunday. Hit 116 Crown St. after 8pm...
The Pentabike is now.
Many thanks to the cats at Swobo for alerting us, via MySpace that the original designer of the classic "pentabike" logo that we've all stolen over the years now has it's own home on the internets.

Stickers, T-shirts and SockGuy socks can all be purchased. The coup de grace, however, is the headbadge.........

Pier Pressure?
Santa Monica.
Now, this looks eerily similar to our Grand Theft Velo posters, but we can't really go crying, because, well, we stole it too. But why wasn't anyone stealing these 3 years ago???
Ours were done by Teaessare Design. He wrote a blog piece about finding these spokecards all over the country.

Keep Austin Wired.
Austin Horse, team rider for King Kog and Red Bull, has a habit of traveling far from his NYC base to destroy other cities in their own alleycats. Earlier in the season, he stole Boston's Pony Up! (making me $100 in the process).
Well now Gina has gone and sent him to Minneapolis for the Stupor Bowl...

...so Austin's gone and won the Stupor Bowl. Check bikejerksmpls.blogspot.com for overall results, photos, and a race report from second place Jeff Frane.
The Horse seems unstoppable this year. Will he take MonsterTrack? Will he take the VeloCity Tour?

Who gets it first?
The following picture has made every bicycle blog this side of the internet. But who will be the first to get it as a full sleeve tattoo???

Colnag-wtf-o
We yanked this photo off HK Fixed. While normally, we're huge fans of both Colnagos and 650c wheels, setting up a Colnago for barspins with a tiny wheel is kind of like putting 22 inch rims on a Saturn. Just sayin'
Today Was A Good Day
Damn you, Europe. Damn you and your efficient public transportation. Damn you for bike lanes along highways. Damn you for being so multimodal.
The Malmo crew takes the train to Copenhagen to watch the 6 day races.
(Damn you and your six day races. Damn you for naming the velodrome "Ballerup")

Eel 2: the sequel
It looks like the gang from the 'Beat is considering a sequel to their famed Eel race.
Last time was part alleycat, part gentleman's race, and all cyclocross. This time, they're thinking a little less wet leaves and a little more asphalt...
"So, I propose a new race for either Feb 21 or 28. It'll be a point to point road race, similar to the eel, but not a loop. You'll choose you're own route to some extent, but it'll be more structured than an alley cat." -- BeatBikeBlog.
Hopefully they choose the 28th, as a few of us will be indisposed on the 21st (secret society meeting - shh). We promise, Hartford, if you're reading, hold it on the 28th and we'll bring the mayhem.

Bad Brains X Vans
Goddamit, P/C, you go and post that Vans has done a collab with Bad Brains and come up with a sweet Rasta-inspired canvas chukka.

Then you link to the Hypebeast Blog, which links to a dead-link. So I get on the Google, credit card in hand, and I get eight trillion results from four trillion sneaker blogs, not to mention 100 or so companies that sell used Ford E-250's (might need one of those too). I go to Vans and they're not even available yet. You tease!
