On Saturday, There was a fashion show that featured local designers, and Zoe and Kaia represented Foat Designs hard. They showed some gathered legwarmers and hot pants that killed. Check their shit out at the Lava Lounge. Ask for Nori, she'll show you the cheddar. Nori is also evidently a medium level bike head. Check: Do you think that a bike is cooler if it has more gears, or less? Wrong! A bike is only cool if it has one gear, and it's even cooler if it does not have freewheel (freewheel means you can coast without moving the pedals, or even move the pedals backward while you coast) and has no brakes, so that you have to stop it by popping the back wheel in the air so that there is no weight on it and stopping it by pushing backward on the pedals. This is not a coaster brake, (that would be the least cool) this is no brake. Of course, my bike has a full 10 speeds, and is a Roadmaster, which, I was informed with much indignace by the bike store dude, is a department store bike. The horror. Now I see these one speed fixed gear bikes everywhere, and any time I see a bike with a big fat load of gears on the back wheel, (like mine) the person riding it is: a) homeless, b) over 60, c) wearing a helmet and is accompanied by a helmeted spouse and small child. This is not correct bike-riding company. I need a new bike bad.
