OOPS

I MADE A BOO BOO ON THAT LAST ENTRY. FORGIVE ME I NEVER TOLD YOU I WAS AN EDITOR. IT WAS SUPPOSED TO READ "NO OTHER TYPE OF EXERCISE WAS BETTER" THAN BIKE RIDING OTHER THAN SWIMMING. BIKE RIDING IS THE BEST,FOR LOW IMPACT...

EXCUSE PLEASE

A new breed of riderz

TRU STREET RIDERZ
My tru street riderz how are you today? all is well and i hope that you are all safe in the street's that you all ride on. I just want to explain to the readers about my personal opinion of what i see is happening on the streets.  I as a Tru Street Rider love the fact that the average adult 35plus years of age or older is taking better care of their health.  Most of this age group in the area where i dwell are out there jogging walking running swimming but mainly Biking is what i'm speaking about.  Biking is the best form of exercise, with the exception of swimming there is no type of exercise is biking! Not only is biking at the top of the list for low impact training it's extremely fun. If you choose as a bike rider you can become a great physical specimen. You can become a speed rider a course rider a tour rider or even a stunt rider, either way you will have extreme body control and great physical condition in order to compete at either one of these as well as having a great deal of fun in the process. So if your looking to gain your strength get into shape and have fun doing it get on a bike ride with a friend start off just around your block or a park and then build up after about 30 day's you will be bringing more riderz into the fold! Hope to see you on the road hope you become a
TRU STREET RIDER

got to get it


Hey T.S.R. hope all is well... Today is a good day and i hope that everything continues to go that way. i'm a little disturbed about now my girl has a sprained leg. When we went out the other day she and i were having a great time and she on the way home some how began to limp.

As we were traveling back i kind of looked back at her and noticed her slight limp or so i thought it was i also dismissed it for a moment because it was getting a little dark i thought it could have been because of the shadows etc.

  Upon further investigation i found that she was truly limping,and i was truly saddened. But let it be understood that when you play hard then you sometimes get banged up. All's she really needs is a little truing up and she'll be back to new. so i'm going to do that asap. Other than that the street are alive and well and we are looking forward to  the riderz who may find themselves a new way of life and begin their own riding style. So T.S.R. until the next time keep the rubber side down.

Stay TRU.

CHEATERS



CHEATERS WHAT DO'S IT MEAN
My definition of the word cheaters? Where will i start is a committed person having relations outside of their perspective house hold? Is it someone in class taking a test to better themselves,no to me is a person who loves to ride "MOTORCYCLES" not BIKES see bike is short for BICYCLE not Motorcycle! lets get that straight, if your going to use the phrase "BIKE" us TRU BIKE RIDERZ would love for you to call it something else like CHEATERS! The reason i say that is because true your on 2 wheels it has handle bars seats for 1/2 riders and it can get in and out of traffic without to much head ache! The main reason i say they Motorcycles should be called CHEATERS is they use other forms of energy to propel themselves, like gasoline! see us TRU STREET RIDERZ use 1type of fuel HUMAN FUEL so when someone say's do you ride bike's i say yes but when they reply so do i what do you ride i say BOTTECCHIA they may say Ninja, RSX, FATBOY,ect. just call them cheaters because you cheat when you ride if you really ride a BIKE you would use your own Hupower2 to get you there... so T.S.R. the lesson for today is stay "TRU" and keep it HU2  by the way MAN! i saw some PHAT Cheaters down a the Lil 5 today "RESPECT"
I LOVE TO RIDE!

D Y K

T.S.R.

did you know that in 1907 UPS yes the delivery people had one of the first if not the first Bicycle Messenger service? well it's official that i didn't know! hey where do's this info come from? i guess in my quest to do a great blog and be a TRU STREET RIDERZ i find my self becoming a search aholic... and with that i also find myself finding info, that i would have never even known before.  UPS in the Downtown Metro Atlanta area has 2 bicycle messengers to deliver their smaller volume packages,they say(ups)that it is quicker and easier to deliver in the downtown area by bicycle messenger including Midtown,Virginia Highlands and Buckhead. NO KIDDING! lol  I do believe that we will see this grow in our near future. Their competitors will without a doubt catch on to this sooner or later. Remember T.S.R. this is where we come in they may have some people that like  to ride,but can they ride "GOOD" like  T.S.R.  So keep your eye's and ears open because you may find your self in a position to do a job that will allow you to showcase your passion and pay you for it. Stranger things have happened!!

NEW WORLD RIDERZ



NEW'S FLASH!
Hey T.S.R. I read today that in N.Y.C. the mayor passed a legislature that they are now attempting to make a law that all business owner's that have bicycle delivery and or messenger service has to wear a helmet by LAW. The Mayor also say's that the company's have to provide the helmets for all employee's no exceptions! i sent the link out to another Street Rider but didn't put it here,so will go back get it and send so you all can read it. Now you know whats next once they start small then they go BIG! I personally i don't have a probably with a helmet but making it a law is going to start something else!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  you know what i mean! ok T.S.R. get ready it's a coming! once it clears NYC then the trical down theory! The prices of helmets are going to go up, the prices of parts going up ect,ect, You get the picture. http://cityroom.blogs.nytimes.com/tag/delivery-workers/
 now this is all just my opinion i ain't saying that it's right i'm just saying that it's "MINE"

NEW FINDINGS FOR ONLY A BUCK




HERE ARE SOME THINGS YOU KNEW OR DIDN'T KNOW!
On Critical Mass the last of October while on my way to the Mass up, my Head light fell off my beautiful BOTTECCHIA Bike. lol  and i was stuck light less. So i made a mad dash to the closest place i could find well the second closest place the bike shop's cheapest light was $39.00 dollars. So i dashed to the next place which was LOWES yeah you heard me!  Now i'm not saying i am a advocate for this place but i needed lights. so i found it. I said well this will do for now but after running the one light that evening i went and bought another 1 it's RED and the GLOW is wonderful as well they both blink. The cost is $4.99 a piece i also bought a Velcro straps to hold it down and BAAAAAAM! you got lights and the GLOW that is bight!

T.S.R. go to the you tube on the side of the page type in cixdeuce watch the lights video or what ever.

HONORABLE MENTION



Good day T.S.R. I'ts the Monday after My first CM ride and boy was that a blast.  Today i am just blogging with you all about being true to the "GAME" what is the game ask? it's the riding game,believe it or not we are a rare breed of folks seriously we travel at just above walking speed,we move along with flowing mobile traffic,we ride to the corner store to pick up milk,bread,eggs ect. we ride for health,we ride to commute,we ride cross country,we ride to sprint race,as well as we ride for the "TOUR" Some of us Spinn we need to get them on the street... lol
Never the less we ride and because of that we are the rarest of them all. Most everyone when the want to get in shape they want to jog hit the track tread mill, all these things are great and i say git ur dun, but Riderz are a very unique breed of people. You would not believe how many people wont ride because they say it's to hard image that! so i leave it up to you T.S.R. take someone out at there pace not your's show them how to ride, i mean if they don't know how to ride thats one thing i mean teach them how to ride whats the best size bike whats the right gear to be in etc, You all know it's not as simple as just jumping on and some people don't understand that so teach them. C'mon we can do it! i believe in us.. Any who have an extra special day today and keep the rubber side down!

T.S.R.
RIDE AT THEIR OWN PACE!
Stay Tru to U
