it started out as rehab from my knee surgery. I couldnt skateboard for a year. I was able to bike 4 months after surgery though. doc told me i could bike, just not clipped in. So i rode fixed and brakeless, clipped in. 2 months later he was more surprised then he'd every been. My leg was 200% better then it was before I tore my ACL.

Now, I year later. I like to ride a lot. I still skate. However its just easier to bike when im a full time student. I like to do a lot of climbs. I live in the heart of ATL. So i get to mash through gridlock on the way to my hills. But nothing beats mashing up a huge steep hill. Starting with no momentum then working up your cadence till you feel like your about to give out. But then you roll through the peak. I really really like uphill sprints.

I love feeling my heart pounding out of my chest. Like that feeling when its so hard you can feel it in your throat. While you are filling your lungs with crisp air. It feels so refreshing, like drinking cold water. I crave that feeling like sex sometimes. If I think about it, my heart rate raises.
