Ebay Paper
A reader recently wrote in to us and asked how exactly we stay so fly and paid around here, at the C2D HQ. We seem to be always either signing another ill rider to our team, or flying out for a photo op in Bermuda. If there is not a 40 oz steak on, then its a 51 oz Baltica.Is this all an image, a fraud, are all of our whips leased like Beanie Sigels Bentleys?
In one word, NO, we own the stuff we flaunt. But how do we make it happen? Its easy. Ebay money. EBAY PAPER.
Got a pair of grips you dont need? Sell em for 7 bucks. How about those print cartridges for a printer you no longer got? Sell em for 12 bucks, e-cash money. That totally sweet Triple 5 Soul turtleneck from when your taste in clothes was shite at best? Sell it for 18 buckaroos to a person with a taste even worse then yours who's still stuck in 99. Boom.
With over 67 sales under my belt and 100% feedback, pffff, I know I'm good. Afterall, one doesn't run a successful blog like this one just on good looks - although the looks do help.
Good day. Holla at me on ebay.

Them Bling Bling FiveTen Freerider
Snap.
There are these riding shoes out there, FiveTen Freerider is the name. Sure sure, not the cutest mountain slippers out there, but they have this magic sole (supposedly) that is giga sticky to such things as....... bike pedals! I've been meaning to get some regular and strange 5.10s for a while now - but the looks of them just dont do it for me. So when I found out that there will be a freeride specific, yet more conventionaly appealing pair of 5.10s comming out, I was as excited as one can be for some riding shoes - because after all, there could never be too much grip between soles and pedals. Unless of course you take your feet off the pedals for stunts - which I most scertaintly do not.
But here comes the snappy part. These puppies are 95$. They dont look any different then any other skatey/bikey/Van-ster shoe, yet they are twice the price like some purple neon limited Nike Dizzydunks. Hmm.
Now normaly, I tear through riding shoes like nada. A few months maybe. And these are supposed to be super soft and grippy.... which could potentialy mean they will wear out that much quicker - just like sticky tires. Am I wrong? Am I right? Should I just read some reviews to find out how long these last? What should I have for breakfast besides this coffee? Why is it so fuckin cold out and its end of March?
I just dont know. But I might buy these - call me George, cuz I'm curious. Get it?
