fixe!





So for the past few months I've been going to the gym non stop. I'm in the best shape of my life from head to toe. On Mondays I take a one hour spin class that is taught by an old friend of mine from high school. The music he plays rules, the people rule, the gym rules and it kicks my ass every time! It got my super interested in building my own road bike. After telling myself I really wanted to do it over and over again... I finally ended up finding a 1983 Gitane road bike off a guy on craigslist and purchased it. It's a very nice & unique teal'ish color that I fell in love with at first glance (original paint!). I then, with the help of my buddy Roy, completely took it apart and purchased all new parts for it and converted it to fixed gear. Nothing beats a good ol' bike ride for me now. I should be getting a white saddle in the mail soon;) Pictures soon.
