Not to jail... I'm going to winter stealth camp and bike Europe for awhile, at least two months and I have a lot of stuff to do before I leave on the 11th.
First off, I've lost a few things that I know are floating around LA and I need to get back before I leave, let me know if you've seen them.
I'm missing both of my helmets, one is a spray painted matte black Giro, the other a gray skate helmet with a dead baby sticker on the front with misc, stickers.
Water Bottles, One is an black aluminum bottle with an elk on it, the other a bright yellow Nalgene bottle that says Alaska Pacific University.
Joe Berferror- U-Lock
Second I photographed my studio's computer gear and some photo gear I don't really need today. I'm selling it so I can perhaps afford to stay at a hostel once in awhile.
Aluminum Apple Cinema Display 20" $500.00
Apple g4 Powerbook $500.00
Apple g5 Powermac dual 2.7GHz 4.5 GB ram
Lowepro Stealth Reporter AW bag new never used $130.00
Sigma 100-300 f/4 EX for Nikon Mount including 1.4x TC, and 82mm UV filter $850.00
Third I have some nice things (i.e bikes, electronics) I'll want to give away while I'm gone so someone gets to use them. I just need to give Cubz first dibs...
Fourth, Party. Ashira's having a birthday party on the sixth at Ag Lago in Silver Lake, my birthday is the fourth, combined party sounds in order, details to come.
Fifth, if you know of anything fun bike-related going on in Europe let me know, Bike Film Festival Rome, and Halloween Race in Berlin are already on the list.

Unfortunately I'm not even sure what accesory you're talking about, my Hamagh or my vest. I had assumed they were in a pile in a garage somewhere... I need to clean that up sometime.
I say hamagh give me back my spandex...

FRANZ!!!!! We're losing a dear Funderstorm fan for awhile. I can't make it to your going away ride. Going to kick it with Grandma. Maybe you can come to the rooftop tonight for Holy Mountain? Maybe we can get a drink and kick it in the park on Wednesday? Maybe I'll see you if you ever come back...

maybe we (and by 'we' I mean 'you') can joust in the parking lot across from my house if it's late enough for the wine bar to be closed (as in late)... might be too small though... probly definitely too small..
anyways... I'm hooked on Freeze Dance since Annie's party...

In the 1970's Gene Simmons of KISS, insured himself through Loyd's Of London, in case he got any females pregnant. I think it was Maternity Insurance. You may want to look into that, or maybe just a fake passport.

Good idea Franz. Have fun on your trip, we'll all miss your shenanigans. Personally, I liked having someone around that attracted more attention from the po-po's than I did. See you soon ;-).......

Just another one I'm forced to miss.
But, like Franz, I'm going to be part-timing it for the same amount of time he'll be in Europe.
Driving two days out of the week and I'll still be making more than when I was a full-time flashlight cop.
Perhaps I could fill the void in some sort of way.
But, in lieu of myself not being there tommorrow, I'm going to plan my own "Black Dog" ride in Nebraska, my next scheduled 10hr rest-point.
This title refers to whether I'll still be seeing imaginary shadows after 11hours of hammering down on the throttle.
'Cause the 80 is a long ass road that never seems to end.

That is one sweet spoke card!! I was wondering if this was going to be a "CRANK Mob" pace or Cubcamp pace?
