The race got postponed but my partying didn't. I got 2 ladies to actually get into a fight over me causing my roommate to say "Why was it that you have a low self-esteem?"
The type of racing I do is messenger races (Alleycats). I ride a fixed gear road conversion with no brakes.
If you've ever ridden anything on 2 wheels you'll appreciate this (the video at the top is the best). I'm not exactly this good these guys are the creme de la creme but I have raced and been schooled by some of these guys.

My favourite and most used bike (I own 7) looks like this one except blacker, sexier, shorter handle bars and no brakes. Man I'd like to meet the girl that rides that though.
