Last minute present wrapping at work. Justin, Sexy boy.
Justins crafty with the stickers.
Gotta rep the work place.
Speaking of being 'crafty'. We had a relaxing night of sewing at Franzs house.
Kent from FTC was happy to see his 1996 shirt going strong in Hawaii. BTW, Kent, I tried to email you back but the addy didnt work.
Franz always has a packed room full of bike shit, no matter if its Ohio, SF, China, or Hawaii.
Deep in the lab
Tell me I'm not the sickest blogger ever. Look at this picture.. Pure amazing. Seriously!
Last night at magoos or whatever they call it now.
Not 20 feet away, such rebels.
Hokus going to teach me to ride time trials.
Chris, young boy, had to wait outside the entire time we were drinking.
Leg over all the bikes skid.
Shortly after taking this i bunnyhopped my camera right out the bag. It lived!
Vince and I saw our friends Tom and Anton at the Loft. The night was young and it was dead.
Another friend from skatetown. Jarold
I try to get all my friends to ride fixed.
Jarolds camera. He wanted a myspace photo of himself.
Keith from In4mation drank some gnar gnar moonshine after this. I had to spit it out. No can handle randle.
Merry Christmas and happy New Years my friends!-Lyan

Recently I sold off the bareknuckle to sexy man, aka "j". This was my parting view of her.
But besides me getting emo about an old bike, today was the Mash sf showing at 39 hotel. Many thanks to J Diamond and Nick for setting it up.
Also big thanks to everyone that came out to show support. Hopefully every event from here on out will be more and more numbers.
Here's my coverage of the day.
Franz and I ate at the Green Papaya before heading over to the bar.
The reason we showed up and a trick Chris tried to do outside afterwards. He lit it but fell into a bus after.
Some people lounging on the couches.
Vince in full bar photo style.
The christmas lights made a nice atmosphere and allowed me to get artsy.
The sexyest crossbreed, Travis gave me the best gift for the holidays.
You rule Travis!
Also at the event, who I didnt get the pleasure to meet, was Wakako. Wakako is a tattoo artist over at Hart and Huntington, whos just joined the message board. So being the internet dork I am, I found her website and played stalker on her blog.
Click the picture below for a link to her coverage of the night. My new bikes the one with the stussy sticker. If you were wondering and i know you were.

Why is Franz so famous? Even his bike ends up on the Kalavinka website. Brought to my attention via Glenn via comment on Franz's myspace page. Posted by me on Aloha Fixed via my fingers....

A few things.
First, Franz flew into Hawaii today...STOKED!
Second, the Bareknuckle and I filed for un-reconcilable differences. So we will no longer be together.
Just as that happened "J" swooped in and snagged her from me. :insert unhappy face:. Of course I only want whats best for her, maybe "J" will be able to give her the love I couldnt.
Third, being a single man for about 15 minutes I was able to find a sweet IRO honey leaving Wray's Apartment. She's more my size, so hopefully we'll last.
Fourth, and lastly. JJ, in New York posted up a DQM christmas commercial, which he is in, and I found hilarious.

Nothing can top a nice ride with the friends. Sundays, Hawaiian style!
I met up with Justin for a little stroll around Kailua and some acai bowls. We by chance ran into Chris and went to Bostons pizza to check out Stu bird.
My shoes. "J" inspired me to buy canvas, being that hes a vegan.
Nick has tricky legs
Chris and "J" being handsome.
"J" has an ray of light around him and beard. Jesus??? You tell me.
Does grabbing a bicycle wheel seem clean? NO! However if its done in white pants, it's clean enough.
FDA claims smoking may cause you to spin in backwards circles.
Dont worry I know im not witty...."J" wheeling out.
Sexy boy, sexy pose, and a rainbow. You do the math.
"J" says good-bye to the day.

Nick, my unofficial 'team rider' has been busy setting up another viewing of the Mash Sf dvd.
This time its at a bar and sounds a bit more people friendly than the previous showing at the university.
Sounds great right? It would be, but I do hate being left out. Soooo, what does a man of my stature and class do?
Well a man like me would go and steal his flyer off the internet and then he would put his logo on it. It helps feed my ego and makes me look 'involved'.
A vain creature? Maybe, but i like to think God made me in his image.
So please come down to the viewing. Muhahahah (thats my evil laugh)

My diet lately has been made up of Parialment lights and Royal Mills iced cappuccinos. Needless to say, but ill say it anyways. I'm up late.
In between painting and letting it dry, I've been skidding the interweb. I thought this was hilarious so I thought I'd share.

Oh kay kay kay. Sooo lots has been going on lately.
I've been out of a camera the past week so im pretty hard up on pictures.
Firsts off, Travis (secret njs ninja) hooked up Aloha Fixed with some love coming from Hong Kong via hkfixed! Booya!
I got an email today from Mortimer from Keirin Berlin . He sent some aloha our way and this clip.
He's in this, riding in NY back in 99'. Which is right around when I was graduating high school.
Also many thanks to everyone who made it up to the Uh showing of MASH SF. Hopefully the boys in SF will light a spark under our asses.
Huge thanks to Glenn for sending me the dvd and huge thanks to J, for setting up the Uh showing.
Lastly Stussy has just opened its flagship store here in Hawaii.
Lots of the homies and fellow fixie riders will be working there.(J, Waylon, and Kevin)
The store is located at Ward, right next to the PF Changs.
Stussy has tons of love for the fixies, being as most in the company, ride as well.
Be on the look out for a few Stussy colabs with a few well known bicycle companys.
This is all for now, but come back soon for more. -signing off, lots of love, Ryan
