Hi Group people

What'dya think of Pentagram (see attached) as next SN topic?

I will not ride since my betrayer is in Tokyo and I will be offshore down in Borneo (hopefully…).

Another thing people…give me some feedback (good /bad) on 2-speed coaster brake hub on a fixie. Already talked to Geek Kawasaki and he can install one if I need it. I wanna try something new and this is as old-schol as it gets plus that I want to get away with a "clean" look. I rode 2 gear coaster hub as a little snotty boy back in Sweden in the 80's.  Hey, No Rules!

PENTAGRAM cool!

I am very partial to caliper brakes... simple and easily maintainable

true, true…but 2 speed….maybe overkill?

Hmm…I'll think about it.

I wouldn't really call it a flyer…Mookie San is the true web designer guru and it's hard to even think to reach up to his level of craftmanship. But, yes…the puling schoolgirl is cute. Do you think this is ramen, soba or maybe even somen she is so gracefully returning from the depth of her bowels? Could be bolognese as welll…hmmmm

I agree, that's why I didn't even try to make one.
... and I was expecting that level of "cuteness" , lol

"orz" means disappointed condition.
old 2ch word, glyph? abbereviation?
does it looks like getting down on knees?

Yep, it helps in many cases…LOL. 

Did you also know that during fiscal year 2011 the Italian people bought more bicycles than car. First time since the time when cars was only for the elite…many many years ago. Cycle nation uprising!

Hi Mikele man…nice shots of last S.N. Tokyo tower is the bomb…saw that you ended up in a bar again…he he! We need a stamina race to Odaiba with Pokari Sweat, Gari Gari Kun and Snickers to boost performance again…I for one have not been on a bike for a couple of months now.

Btw, should be Vol.60 I believe. Wow, that's 5 years of continuous Speeed Night'n. Good to have all you guys still on the team Road Kill. Lost many on the way from when we started. Not many who can keep up doing it when new hip trends stuff change and one wants to be seen doing the "in" thing. I rather see a small hard core of friends than an anonymous hoard of followers anyways.

we rule the night!

Tokyo tower was fun to shoot with Mookiee, I want to give it another try another time, I should have moved the focus higher on the tower I believe... oh well... I posted it in the RKB as a statement of what we did... was a quite fast ride there.

Makai is the bar, run by Mao, we decided it is our club house from now on, for post rides... we even get to play music from our ipod (sometimes)

We had a talk about future S.N. , where we could plan destination over this group ahead of it...
so the designed route master won't end up having to resort to usual/familiar places at the last minutes.

the idea is that there are a LOT of cool places to see in Tokyo, that are easy and fun to reach by bicycle and instead boring and time consuming if need to use half a day by trains and walk...
so we could decide a destination of interest, a worth see place, routemaster decide the road to take for going there and back and do the ride RKB style.
At location, eat a couple of onigiri, a beer and take bad-ass pics for the blog.

thought?

Sounds like the original idea, minus the onigri and beer combo (guess we can slack off some from former "pedal-to-the-bone" era)…so count me in, love this and can't wait to be on the road with my brothers in Tokyo again!

onigiri/beer was there for those that feel like relaxing instead of playing with tripods
NO RULES!
