Single Speed: September 2011
http://singlespeed-davis.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
A two wheeled monologue of growing up and getting out. Friday, September 16, 2011. Single Speed #11 - Darkness. I looked ahead and all I could see was darkness, mostly black but with blues and purples, hiding a swamp and a highway, which I needed to thread myself between to get to the next moment. I could not turn away from the darkness, knowing that soon I would have to jump into a bigger void, a move that would take me far away from Davis, my home of five years. Davis taught me about failure: academic ...

Single Speed: Single Speed #9 - Bikestore Blues (June)
http://singlespeed-davis.blogspot.com/2011/08/single-speed-9-bikestore-blues-june.html
A two wheeled monologue of growing up and getting out. Wednesday, August 31, 2011. Single Speed #9 - Bikestore Blues (June). Bicycle retailers in Davis are not about pushing product. They are about catering to a cliente niche. Even myself, as a very small time bicycle salesman cater to a very specific niche: my clients are an even mix of hippie, cheap, hipster, and lazy. The shops all know their audience and hope you frequent their shop through out your time in Davis. Which niche do you belong to? View m...

Single Speed: Single Speed #8 - Leave Everything Behind (May)
http://singlespeed-davis.blogspot.com/2011/08/single-speed-8-leave-everything-behind.html
A two wheeled monologue of growing up and getting out. Wednesday, August 31, 2011. Single Speed #8 - Leave Everything Behind (May). Guatemalan engineering taught me one more thing. While visiting people who had nothing, living in cinder-block houses, they would tell me they were in love and that, not any amount of stuff, was what carried them through.

Single Speed: March 2011
http://singlespeed-davis.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
A two wheeled monologue of growing up and getting out. Wednesday, March 30, 2011. Single Speed #1: Seach for a Cyclista. I would eventually find an abundance of Cyclistas once I learned where to look:. 1) Stealing fruit from orchards in Winters, carrying them back in multiple 80s thrift store purses. 2) Rolling through downtown tangled in a flowing dress, frequenting coffee shops with their own mugs. 4) Avoiding men at all costs. Oh, how I would pursue! As I was clearly getting outclassed and led down a ...

Single Speed: Single Speed #5 - 7 stages of grief (April)
http://singlespeed-davis.blogspot.com/2011/08/single-speed-5-7-stages-of-grief.html
A two wheeled monologue of growing up and getting out. Wednesday, August 31, 2011. Single Speed #5 - 7 stages of grief (April). 2) Pain and guilt. Here come guilty feelings or remorse over things you did or didn't do. It’s your fault, you’ll say. I've had no less than six bikes stolen in Davis and as a bad Catholic I feel the karmatic weight of each moment. Gladys, my Giant Sedona was stolen during a party in which I was flirting with a bike customer (not my girlfriend). 6) Improbable Reunion. This i...

Single Speed: April 2011
http://singlespeed-davis.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
A two wheeled monologue of growing up and getting out. Tuesday, April 19, 2011. Single Speed #3 - 10 bicycles. The average Davisite owns 2.1 bicycles. This average is pushed up because of bike ministers like myself who own too many bikes than appear logical. I own at all times at least ten bicycles, and have at times owned 35 or more. While I could pool my money in one or two bicycles, what’s the fun in that? Are you letting satisfaction with your current bike prevent you from buying another bike?
