drift x fixed

FatLace from illest on Vimeo.
my old love of drifting combined with fixed gear bikes. i guess one reason i fell in love with fixed gear i guess is because like drift racing your car or bike is taken back to just what is needed, the supervention is set up for driving not for look's. just like fixed gear. nothing but simplicity. epic movie so enjoy.

sunday morning...

a vain attempt to blog more....

this is sad!

this is rad.

this is art.

this is sexy.

 

 this is beautiful.

2 month's and how things have changed.

Ok so it's been way fucking long since i have posted anything on here. it really does upset me to see how ive let this go. i love to go back over what i have posted and to see the many changed i have made as a person. I also think ive missed having the release. Ok so i have a few things happening that have kept me from this endless banging of key's and flicker of blog's that create this little slice of me. Last time i posted i had just started couriering in Brisbane. On the bike every day mean's there is far less time for trolling but it has been amazing for me. Sydney for Australian Cycle Messenger Championships was amazing. met some great people and honestly got to do some things i don't think i will ever get to do again. some photo's.

For the first time in my life i guess i can say i really do love my job. Being a Cycle messenger is defiantly something that has and will change my life forever. It has pushed me to do what i should ahve done along time ago and start working for myself. Here i bring you. MOBIUS. brisbane's boutique bike messenger company. Launching july 1st 2010, we are in a new decade and this one is going to be the wiping away of all the bullshit from the last decade.

The other thing that has been keeping me from updating is defiantly the biggest thing, she is the reason i push myself and she is also the motivation. she is my never ending support and alway's manages to put a smile on my face. You my dear are amazingly beautiful and  you have a drive that i everyday try to match. Every time i look at you i wonder how this ever happened. remember "urrrr Aaammmmazing!"

I guess there is something eles i have to say! You are blind. if your haven't yet read about 'thevenusproject' or understood what is happening with the world government and our financial system, you need to start looking. return our gold price, get the banker's out of our government, stop letting the federal reserve make our money for us at interest. start building sustainable living and growth option's. stop all this corporatization of  our government. take our troop's out of iraq. this is a start. without a start we cannot even think that something like the venus project will ever be able to prosper. technology is here too free us from the hold of money! profit is a dirty work. profit is to screw someone out of money for something that can be manufactured or built or for a service that should be offered free. if you haven't yet realized we are living in a society where we are gaking the middle class slaves. slaves to our job's. slaves to the all migthy doller. every generation is being born into more and more debt. in today's cuture the all seeing eye is being seen as a cool trendy thing. popping up and all things pop culture but how many of you have actually reseached what that symbol mean's? stop being blind sheep and open your eye's.

messanger co.

there is a old saying in the messenger world, it always rains on the first few days of a good messengers first week. Brett came up to me yesterday and goes "you must be a super fucking messenger with all this fucking rain. I think he was half pissed that i brought it all. meh, not my fault. it has been rather ridiculous. even today the rain had died off but the wind was fucking stupid. currently working as hard as i can to get a new bike running as cheap as possible. need the reliability.... not really much eles to report. ill try and put up some more sketches soon if possible.

word's of wisdom.

"big courier scene in London, most are really adorable and sweet.. they all hang out at the foundry and there are loads of proper old school geezers... they are my beacons on the streets, i follow them when i am lost and ask for directions at the lights... they are the heart and soul of the city" Erin

roof top super fun happy times.

ok im tired as fuck tonight. Started as a bike courier today. i know random right. didn't even apply. ran into obi yesterday and he pretty much asked if i wanted a courier job. bam there you go. started this morning,  Was pretty chilled. not a lot to be said other then ride hard and stay away from cabbies.... getting a strange respect for fixed. roof top happy times just before lunch kept me going, that's obi chillin smoking all the shit.. not really an exciting day all in all but defiantly a turning point in my life and something i felt had to be documented. 

love will tear us apart....

Soundwave yesterday was epic. really didnt wanna do it but it was amazing none the less. Seem's as tho everywhere i went i ran into someone who looked like her. so many times my heart dropped in my chest with the sudden understanding it couldn't be her. Photo's plus some cool stuff i came across. night all.

Rest in Peace my dear Shelly...

Wednesday the 17th of February this world lost a beautiful girl. Shelly panda i don't know what made you feel as though you needed to take yourself from us.... myself like a lot of people around me don't understand why? im trying to push back the feeling that it's my fault, i guess it was just your time. Unfair that it is you have been ripped from our arm's and hearts so early in your life. Missed by so many you are. I'm going to keep this short for i don't hold the strength to be able to hold back these tear's much longer.

My final letter to Shelly
You will forever be in the heart's of so many of us. The hardest part is accepting that you are just a photo, a memory. There is no reply to that text message. There is no other and to that phone call. You felt so alone and had no idea the impact you had on the people around you. Last night there was a minute silence for you at you at Snitch and Mish Mash club. Two of the biggest rival's came together at the very same time in dead silance. Both Wookie and Julian played City and Colour - The girl for you a the same time. Emma is beside herself, she already has a tattoo for you. I don't think Adele has left her house. Its silly to think you thought you had no-one yet i watched and entire nightclub put down there glass's and stop in absolute silence for you. So many people came out last night. I don't know what else to say. I will forever miss you. My dear panda.
I hope your finally happy, where ever you are.

back to old times....

love love.... gotta go back to these.

what have we become?

A pedicab driver chains his 2-year-old son to a pole outside the Beijing mall to prevent kidnappers from abducting the child, after their daughter was recently taken.

lost? or found?

''They warn you about killers and thieves in the night. I worry about cancer and livin' right. But my momma never warned me about my own destructive appetite.... Or the pitfalls of control. How it locks you in your grave. Looking for someone to be saved under my restrain.''

do you dispise society like i do?

Well you will love this. A close friend of mine has a release i guess. A way in which we gets his pent up frustration with how fucking dumb society can be....

Check out this weeks post.

stack yo cash.

for a rainy day.

frame of the day

Found on sffixed.com's - Pic of your day thread. where you post up a photo of what you did that day.... this one's epic.

cigarettes and self portraits

Starting something new is very satisfying.. then why do i feel deluded from society, support for my never ending ventures always seems to surprise me. Triplevfixed my current vent and escape from daily life brings me back only to the things of which i lack to control.... my unhealthy addiction to cigarette's and knowing that i push this body far beyond the point in which it is safe, can self mutilation still be diagnosed if you are subconsciously doing it to yourself. I don't cut and i don't burn, i just lack that little voice in your head that say's. YOUR LIFESTYLE IS KILLING YOU..... maybe i just draw too much into it? maybe just maybe? im just normal?
