Okay, so it seems Brittany and I are pulled apart from each other due to work a lot. When we first started dating, she had to go back to Utah to manage her department at Nordstrom. Last summer, right after getting married, I went to Wisconsin to nanny and she stayed in Utah to help manage. This year, she stayed in Utah to finish school while I headed out here to Denver. Now she headed back to Utah and I am stuck here as a bachelor again. Its not that bad the first couple of days, but sleeping in a bed by yourself just isn't fun. And coming home from a long day of work to no one is just really sad. I don't know how people live by themselves. I would go nuts from boredom. Luckily last night I went downtown with a buddy and we rode our fixies around. It was mega cool and downtown here is amazing. If I ever have to live in denver, I will definitely live close to downtown.

Our bikes

My centurion fixie.

For those of you who don't know, I am in a bike gang. We ride fixies and its mega cool. A fixie is a bike in which you have no brakes, and a single cog on the back that is not a free-wheel, its completely stationary so the only way of stopping is a controlled skid. I picked up this frame one day when I was knocking doors in ghetto Aurora CO. This old man was sitting out on his driveway and I start talking to him. He tells me his whole life story of owning a bike shop and that he has warehouses full of bikes. I kinda laughed cause he seemed to be senile but then he opened up his garage, which was a two car wide, but like 6 car long garage. At first it looked really dark but after my eyes adjusted, I could see why it was so dark, a mountain of bikes that spread from front to back and side to side. There had to be at least six or seven hundred bikes in there. So I started rummaging through and found four or five really good frames for fixed gears. I also picked up Brits bike from a garage sale, its a '72 panasonic, pretty sweet for $5.
