Nic conquers Vigilante Drive on a fixie, beats Mt. Faber with face



NicIz2HardKore made it to the top of Vigilante Drive on his vintage 44 x 17 Battaglin fixie. Mount Faber, however, was a little too coy with her curves, so he taught her a lesson, leaving a sheen of red on her flanks  :-P


















The juicy squishy details


NIC : PHEAR

NIC : I MADE IT UP VIGILANTE
ON FIXIE!
BEN : holy shit! fark!

i fell off the bike on the way down
on the straight before the corner where i crashed 2 years ago
BEN : yeoch
NIC : i was too tired to stop the bike
and then it started wobbling
BEN : yeow
