O.M.G. the streetz were filled










OK 
you guy's i made it. i mean i had no doubt that i would,but the uncertainty of things alway's makes you wonder... WOW! this was a out Freeeeekin standing. We met up a Woodruff park started taking some shots and met up with my riding partner talk to and met some new TRU STREET RIDERZ  then it was on! we started out with 40/50 riderz... Wait a min let me go back a min. The day was dreary wet and a lot of  people didn't want to ride because of those facts. well some had maybe health reason's other's just well what ever. I was not going to mis this for any reason. the RIDERZ came out in MASSES Critical Masses lol we started out slow and smooth building our course as we were riding "remember this is my first CM" as we made our way down the street more riderz were adding on and on, by the time we got about 3/5miles out (projected) i looked backed and saw a sea of riderz... O.M.G. I'm stoked! as my youngest brother would say love ya DUDE! this was such a humbling experience for me. We continued to ride through the city and the CM crew were truly at large. I have a new found respect for anyone who rides not that i didn't have it before but for those who love riding so much that it consumes them even more than myself.... That's a strong feet. I met new riderz who who's bikes exceed the price of the average car drivers car. WOW! I am truly impressed with all riderz. I saw trikes old school trikes not new ones beach cruisers no gears wonderful female riderz strong and proud, MEN IN DRESSES that was funny! All n all my fellow T.S.R. this was the most invigorating thing that i have done in years that wasn't just me involved! I had a truly wonderful time and the Riderz were looking out for one another as it should be.  The whole thing about CM is to bring awareness to those who don't ride and drive even just to go 2 blocks to get some milk and eggs, get a little exercise save some gas, watch out for the ones who don't have cars respect them like you want to be respected. Look at it this way the domino effect, you'r a walker you walk every where,i'm a rider i ride every where, then you got the car drivers,suv drivers,then the commercial drivers. The car driver doesn't like it when the the suv driver bogart's their way in the suv doesn't like when the big rig just moves in because they can, and the pedestrian doesn't like it when the bike riderz are on the side walks. The only difference is us riderz ride in the streets to give you your space but then we as riderz get disrespected by you when you are diving your cars,so at what point do you make even for us?????
That is still a saga. So if everyone would just show a little love to the next person especially us T.S.R  we would all just get along wonderfully! don't you think! any who thanks to all the CM family world wide for this great event wonderful! Oh by the way i met and saw 1 ONE UNO LONE African American Woman rider last night WOW!  i just blogged about the lack there of but she represented on her old school 10speed BIG UP'S TO CLOVER! U GO GURL!
I WILL UPLOAD THAT PHOTO
Well to all of you i'm just telling you my opinion  as i see them i'm not saying that there right i'm just that there "MINE"

O.M.G. 2 FEMALE STREET RIDERZ




OMG
Tru Street Riderz hope all is well today! today was an interesting day. I did some good riding and met some new T.S.R. wow! you guy's would not believe it. In the pictures you see 2 young ladies Riding fixed bikes, if you are a rider of any kind you know that they are not cheap but more than that these are "LADIES" now i know some of you already know this but i have some new readers who don't know the difference from a race bike to a street bike let alone a fixed bike versus a single speed bike "LOL" no disrespect to anyone.

What i'm saying is these ladies ride regular and they are riding fixed i don't ride fixed knee's can't take it!!!!!!!!!! so for me to see to ladies riding fixed is a wow! statement. U GO GIRLZ!  Whats more interesting is that one of the ladies "did i mention she rides in HILL" i mean yeah you know hillz with a Z DAMN! her name is Pamela her partner in crime is Jessica and they were very gracious in letting me shoot them for this blog thanks P/J i call them SUPERWOMEN of the street riderz. See anyone can ride on a path,and anyone can build up their endurance to go off road but to navigate through the streets on a bike knowing others don't care about you in car's,trucks, suv's WOW! even pedestrian's get more love than T.S.R. any who i respect these ladie's and i love the fact that they roll like that stay ahead of the game and keep the rubber side down!
Well for all you T.S.R. you know tomorrow is  CRITICAL MASS i was unable to go before but tomorrow i may be able to go to my first one since coming back to GA and i am looking forward to it so get your gear on and see you there!

Street Navigator T.S.R.


Hey TRU STREET RIDERZ
Hope everyone made it home or to their places of rest this evening. another blessed day has come and gone and i find myself loading pictures and commenting on what i saw today. Well today is about STREET NAVIGATOR'S. What is a street navigator you ask, well that is an individual who rides his/her bike young or old big or small short or tall in any race or religion.through these streets here in this town and surrounding area's on a regular basis and have to deal with the traffic at large. Today i must admit in the Little 5 points area i saw some very courteous car/suv drivers allowing the bike riderz safe passage through the streets, allowing us to navigate at a rate that neither slowed us down or themselves. Really in little 5 points you see that a great deal until a Knuckle head who doesn't frequent the area or just being plain rude cutz us off and then thats when the disrespect starts. While in Decatur today before i got the Lil 5 i was almost run over twice because of rushing knuckle heads speed demons and i follow all the street laws. but any who we as riderz have continue to be very visual and hard corps never letting off our guard because all it takes is for one person to say i didn't see him/her and your done! so i just want to say to the wheelers show some love to us 2 wheelers because one day i might be someone you love trying to lose weight or even your self, or maybe even your child (god forbid) out there and someone may be doing what you have done to us to them then what would you say then!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  We don't want any one hurt so show some love, and cant we all get along!!!!!!!!!!!

T.S.R.
Much love to you all goodnight!

Feeling Blue



Greetings:
  T.S.R. Today i have a problem it's a pretty good day outside high about 68degrees and sunny, my issue is i have no girl to take out! isn't that strange.

  I mean the other day i had a new girl and her and i was getting better acquainted and now she's gone my beloved Bottecchia is hurt still limping the specialist has to order her a special piece they don't carry them.

  So here i am alone again doing nothing can't go out and  hang out with Ma'lady at all.  I only wish that my girl Bottecchia was up and able to ride with me. Oh well i hope i can get her ready for the 31 we have a date with Critical Mass and we are looking forward to it. Until then i hope you T.S.R. keep the rubber side down.

THANKS
T.S.R.
