Macaframa SF Premiere

I just updated my blog - gave it a new name and new address.  Also if you'll notice, I put a label on the banner, one of things to cross off the to-do list from my last posting, oh and put a check next to posting weekly (Done & Done).  

So the description reads that this blog is a an amateur look at life, pop culture and the media, behind a juicy moustacheo - I'm paraphrasing but that's the gist of it.  So now to address the title of today's blog.

I guess you could file this post under the life category
Macaframa is one of those track bike crews based out of SF, much like MASH, that is putting out a documentary film about riding the mean streets of San Francisco.  From those who were there at the Vegas premiere, the word is that its pretty damn good.

Now there's enough amateur track bike videos to fill a dumpster in you favorite city just search fixed gear on YouTube but like MASH, Macaframa gets it right.  I mean common just watch the preview clips.

Well along with tonights premiere at the Victoria Theater is an alleycat, a fixed gear race that gets its roots from the rigors of the bicycle messenger world, as a prelude to the premiere.

Info and directions about the alleycat are on the Maca website.  A bunch of guys from SJ Fixed, San Jose's own version of Macaframa, but not as organized, is planning to Caltrain it up to the City for tonights festivities. 

Why am I here posting and not on the train as I write this??  Because I just got my bike in working order not 2 days ago and it still has problems with the breaks chattering, BLAH.  This and the fact that I have no hill bombing experience in SF whatsoever = a very large a hospital bill and thoroughly drained skull - why do we need so much fluid in that sucker anyway?

But I'm getting onto a tangent so I'll stop right there about the great mysteries of the human anatomy.  

So just to recap...
  1. Macaframa premiere tonight
  2. I'm trying to get work done
  3. Glad to have my bike back
  4. and skulls shouldn't have that much brain fluid
LIFE
