Wonka throwing down on his new Kilroy frame from Gorilla and a cool story on the frame development and R&D. Hey I got my new Casio EX-FC100 Camera today, the thing shoots 1000 frames per second in video and is a true HD in a point and shoot. Results after the weekend riding.

Last night

We had a cool spin last night – went up the Rose Garden hill up to the Domain where Mike and Jeffrey went Fixlocross crazy on some dirt tracks. It was the first time I’d seen Alex since he got back – cool to see you again Alex!

Mike was riding with bib protection for the fist time.

I rode the Gods Cogs triple flange goodness last night with the Dodici rim, it was like someone had put an invisible cantilever brake on the back.

Offroad! Mike took a tumble but made it out the bottom. Justin, Hagan and I stuck to the tarmac.

It looks like an orangutan stole my bike:

GODS COGS Triple Flange Hub and Dodici 405 Rim

Adam delivered me my new wheel. Adam has started Gods Cogs www.godscogs.com and is making super stiff triple flange hubs. They are in the development stages right now, Jeffrey and I bought some and are giving them a thrash. Adam is bro’s with the dapper gents from Dodici in Italy and he is lacing the hubs to their super stiff 405 rim. I love the way these look. Great finish, no braking surface but nicely curved sidewalls without ripples. Adam is combining the triple flange with a bolt on machined cog. I’m about to go out for a Tank Farm Tuesday ride on it for the first time so I’ll let you know how it runs.

It was really cool to spin around tank farm last night if only briefly – some new faces too – great to catch up.
