Smashed it

Today I smashed the record. Back in the days of the Blue Whale high 16's, low 17's and lazy 18's were the norm for the 3.7 mile Bedstuy-Dumbo track, but that time is long gone. I must say, these are relaxing in the saddle early morning miles, and granted that 12-13's are easily possible with speed on the mind. Switching to a proper bike alone cut two to three minutes off my morning commute, and this mornings 14.31 is not the limit. I know that Malum has more in it, even though this might be the fastest morning home-to-work commute so far, there are seconds upon seconds to cut in a dozen places.

Knog N.E.R.D Review Part 1

A few months back we mentioned Knog NERD bikey computer , ogling at its simple form and function. I don't know what it is, but i always get excited about anything that has to do with silicone - and one more or less strikes gold with the N.E.R.D., as the whole thing is textured like a luscious breast.

What can I say, this is my first velocycle computer and it does exactly what I want it to. I get my current speed, max speed, average speed, trip distance/time, total distance time and a nifty lightup function. Switch between all those by pushing on the screen - its one big button! Setup was easier then ordering Bangers and Mash at The Chip Shop in Park Slope, but more about that later.

Naturaly, I threw the NERD on my 20, and got it going as fast as I could - which was about 30mph. Swift.

As this is the first part of the review - i dont want to give away too many juicy details - to find out JUST how awesome this lil compy is, wait for part 2.

Fun lil display. Easy to read, awesome to speed.
My wheels. Notice the Knog set up on the bars and fork - tiny!
Sunny Rooftop fun - bikey is chillin out before a ride.
