Half Full of shit...
I've made enough bad decisions in my life to fill the remainder of the world's biggest half full/empty glass, and have it overflowing , spilling rather, all over the damn place...
So Far my 33 some odd years on this earth, I have been through plenty of ups and downs....
I've been without a home, poor enough to get government benefits (food stamps),
stranded in random places with no transportation or money, and one time got caught stealing a biscuit from an old country buffet on Thanksgiving one year when I couldn't afford the meal.
I've dealt with major surgeries from pretty wild bicycle related injuries, involving replacement hardware that even needed to be over nighted in one inst ...

Canadian Vacation....
|
The kingston Bicycle festival is a one week bike party in Kingston Ontario, about 190 miles north of where I live in Ithaca Ny. The festival also hosts this years Metro Jam, where several of my friends were working and competing in. Cool, lets go to Canada and check it out.

Chill In Progress....
|
In the fall of 1993, a few of my closest friends and myself, packed up and headed west in search of our dreams... When I say west though, i am not referring to the California dream, I am talking about Ft. wayne Indiana, a small city of a quarter million about 550 miles west of Ithaca Ny, where Mike Tag, Magilla and myself had spent the better part of our youth... Prior to the Indiana experience of course.
Right before moving to Indiana, we started FBM, we printed t-shirts and traded zines with other riders in the seemingly obscure underground world of bike riding. As unique byproducts of a failed magazine, (Freestylin/Go), we had new ideas for personal progress different than our adoles ...
