The original idea for ROTW was to get to know people better. So, Dan, if you don’t mind…
Tell us about yourself, what do you do when you are not riding, building, or dreaming about bicycles? What do you/ would you do for money? What do you spend your money on? Where have you lived, where do you live? Favorite rides, favorite ridzz? Schooling, books, knowledge? Etc.

Eh, that kind of chit is overrated.
I'd rather know his opinion on the state of Discordia in the Universe.
I'd rather know what his favorite hops are.
I'd rather know if we are all just a figment of Brassknuckle's imagination or if Brassknuckle is a figment of our collective imagination.

wow, just logged on and saw this. I'm honored. i think i'm gonna cry.
okay alec, let's get to those questions
What do you do when you are not riding, building, or dreaming about bicycles? What do you/ would you do for money?: For a living I do music licensing. Own a company that represents bands and composers and to get their music placed in film and tv projects. I would rather be doing something with bicycles. Lately I find myself completely distracted at work thinking about bike stuff.
What do you spend your money on?: Mostly food and bike stuff. I try not to spend too much because I’m usually broke.
Where have you lived, where do you live?: I was born and raised in West Los Angeles. I went to college in Oregon and then moved back to LA in 1998. Since being back in LA I’ve lived in about 10 different places all over the city, and my current residence is at Grand in the Downtown/Chinatown area.
Favorite rides, favorite ridzz?: My favorite ride has to be C.R.A.N.K Mob. I don't think i've been on many rides that i haven't enjoyed. Any excuse to hang out with my friends, meet new people, and ride my bike is good enough for me. I usually don't care where the ride goes. It's all fun. As far as favorite ridazz, there are far too many to name. I don’t think I’ve met a rider on in this midnight ridazz world that I haven’t liked.
Feel free to ask more. I’ll keep the answers coming.
And yes Spook we’re building tonight. Hopefully I'll be home early (see I'd rather work on bikes than my real job)

Do you have a picture without the beard, and if so, can you post it here?: I do have pictures without the beard. I'm not at home so I will have to post i up later
How did you get involved with bicycling? with the midnight ridazz?: I got involved with MR because I was bored one night. I got an email about about it, and it sounded fun so i decided to go. After the first one i was hooked.
If you couldnt ride fixed, what kind of bike would you ride?: Anything with two wheels is fine. One wheel is fine too.
You used to live in the valley, fluffa territory. Are you still down to fluff?: Of course. I still love the valley.
Do you still masterbate intensely? with your bike? When was the last time?: Depends on the day. Any real biker masturbates with their bike. Did it about 5 minutes ago and as soon as I clean the bike, I'm going back for round two.
When is the all-out-non-stop-crazy-insane-pornstar-pool-party happening at your parents house again???: Pool parties start back up in the Spring. Right now it's Marathon Brunch at Grand.

How did it make you feel to be nominated/named R.O.T.W.?: Honored
Name something that you spend too much money on, but feel it is totally worth the price?: I really don’t spend too much money. Like I said above, I’m always broke. Being self employed with a new business means the little bit of money I have goes into the business, and so far I’m not making any back. The writers strike is making it even worse.
Do you have any laminator regrets?: Nope. It’s made many wonderful spoke cards.
Which is better; vegan, omnivore, Carnivores, pescitarian or flexitarian? Which one would best describe you?: Vegan. I’m a carnivore again after being vegan for quite a long time. I felt a lot healthier as a vegan.
If we went into a bar and I offered to buy you a drink, any drink, what would it be?: Vodka rocks or scotch
If I offered to buy you a beer at the Smokehouse, what would it be?: Arrogant Bastard
What is the best part of having parties at your Grand Apartment?: I usually don’t remember much from the parties but it’s always fun to wake up the next day and find a couple dozen people passed out on the floor and round everyone up for a post party breakfast.
What is the best part of having pool parties at your Brentwood estates?: Seeing how many people can cram in the hot tub and guessing how long it takes before Kel convinces everyone to get naked.
What is the worse part of having parties at your Grand Apartment?: Cleaning up the next day and trying to return all the shit that everyone always leaves at our place.
What is the worse part of having pool parties at your Brentwood estates?: Naked Borfo
Do you ever think about your clown college education, and think, "it is such a shame that I didn't use any of that education today?": I’ve pulled out some juggling gear at times, but I can’t do it like I used to. The only thing I miss is being able to ride a unicycle. I tried again recently and couldn’t do it at all. For me it’s not like riding a bike. I’ve completely forgotten how to do it. Anyone have one i can borrow to teach myself again?
If the world had to pick a universal tube valve, what would your vote be, presta or schrader?: Definitely presta.
What is your favorite color?: Blue
What is something that you would tell me about myself, that you think I totally need to change?: You need to learn how to spell or learn how to use spellcheck.
What is something you would tell me about myself, that you think I should never change?: Don’t change a thing sexy. We love you the way you are.
What is the worse on a women, bad breath, or bad down there odor?: Neither is nice
If you didn't have the friend that lead you to buying the KHS fixed gear, would you have bought a KHS? If not, what brand would you have purchased?: I’ve been very happy with the KHS. I haven’t tried enough different frames to know what brand to purchase next. It’s gonna take some research and time on other people’s bikes to see what I want.
Sharrows or Bike Lanes?: Sharrows
do you drink coffee regularly?: Can’t stand coffee. It’s soda for me.
Do you think pasta is poor food choice?: I love pasta.
What was the first LA party group ride you went on?: I can’t remember. They’ve all blended together. I’m guessing it was about 2 ½ years ago, but I could be wrong.
If finances wasn't an issue, where would you live? If LA, what neighborhood?: LA, Portland, or Chicago. I love the neighborhood I live in now.
Frozen Yogurt, or ol 'skool Shakes?: Definitely Shakes.
Tea, or Coffee?: I hate the taste of coffee, but I don’t drink much tea either. It’s soda for my caffeine fix
You like small, yippy-yap dogs, or large, food-consuming work-dogs?: Food-consuming work dogs or cats.
Pier, or Stage-diving?: Stage-diving
Gloves, or no gloves on a bike?: At the moment, gloves only if it’s cold.
Coastin' or haulin' ass?: I ride a fixed gear so there’s no coastin for me
Train or Plane?: I hate flying. If there is a way around it, I use any other method of travel.
And last, but not least.... Stargate or Star Trek??: HUH?
