Last Ride of The Year

Posted by RL Policar On December - 31 - 2006

Yesterday a couple of my buddies, Paul and Rick and I took a leisure ride through Fullerton Loop to end out the year.

We had a great time, a couple of crashes…luckily it wasn’t me since I don’t have insurance….

Here’s Paul reinacting his face plant…

Tomorrow I’ll be heading out to a trail called San Juan with the owner of RPM Cyclery, Scott Finch. I’ll post the pics once I get back.

Posted by RL Policar On December - 28 - 2006

The Nightwing that SweetSkinz provided us have been pretty fun. So with the help of Priscilla, we headed out to the back alley to get some night shots and even a short video on how well the reflective tires work.

Here’s some shots of the Ibex B-Series bike at night with the SweetSkinz Nightwing tires.

Here’s my Redline 925, Fixed gear baby! It too also is wrapped with the Nightwing tires. Flash from the camera lights up the tires.

Now here’s the video. Just Right CLICK and Save to your PC.

Furniture Polish as Bike Polish

Posted by RL Policar On December - 28 - 2006

I learned this little trick from the LBS I moonlight at on the weekends. When ever they run out of bicycle detailing spray, they use furniture polish to clean the bikes and make them look purdy.

So I ran over to the local dollar store and got myself some cheapo furniture polish. I’m sure Pledge would have worked just as well but I was on a tight budget…of a dollar.

I took one of my dirty frames, a Giant Warp. Here’s a shot to show you how dirty it is.

Sprayed it all over the frame.

Tada! All clean..and it smells like lemons!

The photos doesn’t do the furniture polish any justice. But it’s worth a try isn’t it? I mean, it is only a dollar. Just remember don’t spray it on any braking surface since the furniture polish has some oil in it.
