Biking The Hoosier State

I'm back home again in Indiana, hahaha see what I did there? Anyways, while spending some time here I decided to bring my bike and do some riding in a different atmosphere from the big city buildings. Here are some pictures from my phone on my trip around the neighborhood testing out my new DP18 track wheel with Origin8 fixed hub and euro-asia cog set-up. (also pictured is my new Kazane crank set)
One thing I realized about my ride today is that I never noticed how steep the hills are in southern Indiana.

*bike in the corn fields

*worst hill climb EVER! that 1st picture was taken at that treeline in the distance

*top of hill before heading into the north part of the park

*the park trees were awesome colors

*Burdette BMX course; use to race here when I was 7

*waterfall exiting park to bomb the backside of the big hill


*last climb of the day, had a great downhill

BikeMechaniks

A random post of good times riding late night around downtown Atlanta with the DriftMechaniks crew. (via andriod phone)






The Feed Shop

I never write up about places I eat at but this place was just to good to not talk about.
This previous weekend I celebrated my 28th birthday and like every year I decided to go have a nice meal at a new place. I heard some good things about a restaurant in College Park called The Feed Shop, so I decided to go try it out.Seriously the best meal I have had in a long time. They didn't have a huge menu but they did have something for everyone.
I choose to get the calamari to start with a surprise guest appearance of baby octopi and it was amazing, really sweet and not too tough. (enough food for a table of 5)For my main course I choose to have the chicken and duck covered in local bbq sauce with white cheese macaroni and coca-cola can baked beans. The chicken was nicely breaded and moist. The duck was sweet and fell right off the bone, the bbq sauce was a very nice touch on top. The mac-n-cheese was amazing and the baked beans had a nice spice to them but not to off from the rest of the meal.
(sorry no photo of this cause I was to busy enjoying my meal)
And all of this great meal was washed down with a nice red wine.

The one thing I did think was weird about the place was that it seemed completely empty, besides my table there were maybe 3 others in the whole place on a Saturday night. I would hope that the next time I go it will be packed cause the food there deserves it.
On a side note they also have a bar, it had nobody in it, but it looked rad. Plus they have PBR on tap.

Graveyard Confessions

I was sifting around my mobile phone picture gallery and notice I still had some picture I took from the SpeedHunters photoshoot for Andy Sapp's slide machine. So here is a backstage view of the day.
