Busy busy

I have been too busy to post anything in ages. So I thought it was time I put something up here. I am still a student after all, so I am never really that busy... well thats what employed people think. So what have I been upto since hanging up my frisbee boots (they are in a suitcase in my new car hole)? Applying for jobs is the short answer.

Anyways, here is a fuzzy photo of my latest bike. It is a Phillips frame that my friend gave me for free with some vintage pats. I binned most of those, and did a bodge job conversion to a single speed for zipping around Southampton. Have been reading a bunch of funny blogs about bikes recently (BikeSnob NYC and this on Trackstar). There is a lot of anger about people converting their bikes into ugly machines, or building wheels yourself. I think these two guys are playing the part, but I have heard that London messangers are getting cranky aboout people like me who have a fixed gear bike, and a messenger bag and cycle our fixies. Well well, they should chill.

Bikes bikes bikes, not been playing frisbee at all, so am probably becoming bike obsessed I guess. Well, I am writing up my thesis, so I need some distraction...

I wrote that a while ago and did not post it, but it is all true and I have been biking a lot lately. I miss frisbee and will never give it up, but cycling is a welcome break.
