Wooden Wave Longboard Part 1
I have always loved skateboarding, normal and longboarding and a few weeks ago when I was sitting in my room trying to think of something interesting to do with my life, an outlandish idea popped into my head. Maybe I'll make a longboard of my own. So began construction on a press modeled after the one shown on toothless longboards. Initially I imagined myself pumping out hundreds of longboards from my garage and eventually becoming a world supplier of grade A longboards. Unfortunately it didn't really turn out like that but here is my first attempt thus far. The concave isn't quite what I wanted but it'll do for now.
Ride The Wooden Wave Brah.

Los Angelopes
~*LOS ANGELOPES*~ Official Trailer from Richie Thomassen on Vimeo.
Spotted on Flwrider
As I was scrolling through my Reader today, I came across this gem entitled "Los Angelopes". I'm so stoked on this trailer for so many reasons. It really captures, what I feel, riding a bike is all about. Ride what you want how you want and the only rule: Have a blast doing it. Another reason I love this video is TALL BIKES! I freaking love tall bikes and would kill for one of my own. The background music is awesome, I just watched this ten times. I'm definitely going to try to get a hold of the entire film once BFF has come to a close. Check out Ritchie Thomassen's Vimeo for more killer videos.

Random Ride
I took a Leisurely 20 mile ride today and brought my small digital camera along. I took a few shots here and there.
The covered bridge in New Britain
Lake Galena
A nice wooded road that borders the lake.
A really cool local lavender farm right around the corner from Peace Valley Park
Over all it was a great ride, definitely one of the upsides to being home. That and family with unbelievable food all the time; can't beat it. Super stoked on this weather, I hope it keeps up!
