Bike for Sale

My friend Raymond is selling his bike for a fraction of its original cost. Follow this Craiglist post if interested.

Brand new looking Orbea Onyx, bought in 2006 for $2700 (I have the original invoice). Only lightly ridden 100 miles. Great deal if you want a high quality sub-20lb modern bike. Tons of carbon, including FSA bars, plus Bontorage heavy duty tires. No scratches, crashes or dings. Perfect condition. Priced to sell and ride away. Ditch the car. Go two-wheeling.

Somebody Didn’t Get Their Dunkin’ Donuts Fix

There’s been a lot of controversey over this video that was taped by a tourist, showing an NYPD officer knocking a cyclist off his bike during a Critical Mass ride in NYC. Some say that the cop singled out and shoved the cyclist off his bike for no apparent reason while others argue that there was a civil complaint against a rider matching his description for violating traffic laws and weaving in and out of cars and that he was endangering drivers by his actions. The video only shows so much. What do you think?

I think I’m craving donut holes and an ice coffee from DD after watching this mess.

VeeV Eco-Mojito

The weather has hit the triple digits (we can thank global warming for that), and nothing says summertime like a cold refreshing mojito. Check out an eco-friendly version below:

- 2 shots of VeeV Acai liqueur

- Splash of club soda

- 2 fresh lime wedges

- Sprig of mint

Place lime and mint into a cocktail shaker and muddle. Add VeeV Acai and ice and shake well. Pour into a rocks glass, top with soda and garnish with mint.

Drink with a clear conscience: VeeV is the first carbon neutral spirit company.

State Of The ECO-NOMY

How did oil get so expensive? Take four minutes to edumacate yourself and watch this video made from one of my favorite reads, GOOD magazine.

Thanks Gary.

1plus1

Green is definitely becoming more common place and we are constantly coming across clothing lines that are turning a new leaf and offering clothes made of organic fabrics and companies that have eco-conscious business practices. But along with all that moral excellence, usually comes a high price tag. It’s been a challenge to find dope, edgy, inexpensive green lines, up until I was turned onto 1plus1.

Happy Hapa Birthday Sarah

Happy Birthday to our girl Sarah Shewey from Pink Cloud Events. Her soiree was held at the new home to the Hit+Run crew, in the concrete jungle of downtown el-lay. The ink was flowing steady throughout the night, as was the 4 Copas Tequila. Props to H+R, who will be soon offering vegetable ink as an alternative for their screen-printing process. Mad love to SS, enjoy your continued weekend celebrations.

Buddha’s Belly Is The Bomb

It had been a minute since I’ve been to Buddha’s Belly, but after my most recent visit, I’ll be going back on the regular. They serve asian-fusion (Thai, Chinese, Korean, Japanese & Vietnamese) dishes and although its not 100 % authentic, the dishes are flavorful, fresh & won’t weigh you down, the prices are decent, the service is good/fast and it has a zen atmosphere cute enough for a date or on a night out with friends.

A few of my recommendations would be the spicy crispy calamari salad, green curry, pad thai & the veggie tempura. Another small suggestion: the soju mojitos- to die for & impossible to just have one. You can also order take out guilt-free since they pack your food in Ecotainer’s which are made from fully renewable resources as well as being compostable and recyclable.

Erykah

I’m definitely going to have to get a copy of the Veg News music edition featuring songstress Erykah Badu, or try to find a transcript of the article online. Unfortunately the only snippets that have been released on the internet are Ms. Badu defending her decision to have a third child by her third baby daddy. I’m not even going there…

On another note, she’s a vegetarian. Yay!!

Kangol Goes Organic

I’m a complete sucker for a cute guy with dimples who has swagger for days. Now if he’s rockin’ a beanie, especially an organic one, I’m putty in his hands (Ok, maybe I’m exaggerating a little, but you get the picture). Cop your organic cotton beanie at the Honeyee Store but get there quick because there was only 150 of this limited edition Kangol x Fragment Design hat made.
