Uh, yeah. It's Friday.

Was trying to come up with something good after the last post...kind of hard to top a Frank Hill interview...then I just decided that I really like this photo; 




I have no idea what happened to Eric Ricks after Powell but I always thought he was underrated. 


By the way, got the new Thunder Titanium Light Low Trucks and holy hell....after riding Indy's for years I am completely blown away at how good these trucks feel and how light they are..

Really, Gullwing?  Yess..... Sorry but I just can't behind the whole slipper/prom shoe look that's popular right now. These Globe Shoes sort of remind me of the D3's.. not quite as clunky but still plenty of heft to 'em.  Kinda short, kinda random. I'll have some better stuff coming up soon. But, hey thanks for taking the time to check the site out. Feel free to explore some of the older posts if you haven't done so already (you got 99 other ones to choose from) . (Thoughtful) comments, s...
