20% Project week 8

In the week that me and my friend Taylor, he’s been taking pictures of his bike.  So far I haven’t posted a picture of my current bike because I haven’t sent my picture on my IPod to my Gmail.  I have to get that picture posted but so far I’ve been posting pictures of Taylor’s bike.  I helped him edit one of his bike pictures; I think it came out great!  I like Taylor’s bike it’s almost like mine but mine is a no-brand but I got decals for it and now it has the same brand as his bike.  My I've taken a picture of my bike on the front of Savanna High School; I took the picture on the “Rebel” Sign.  My picture didn't come out as good as I wanted it to come out so I’m going to need to take a better one and edit it

20% Project Week 6

Week 6, on this week were taking pictures of our bikes at cool places.  Last week I took a picture of my bike up on a tree.  I my partner Taylor he already has pictures of his bike.  We’re planning to go riding someday and take pictures of our bikes together.  So far we have our bikes separate.  I switched my blue bike for another bike.  The bike I have now is a black frame.  I only traded the Frameset (Frame, Fork, bottom bracket, and Chain).  I’ve had the same frame as I do now before I got the blue one, I traded my black frame for the blue on but now I have the same black frame back.  I really like the black frame I got.  I traded frames with one of my closest friend.  He got my frame and sanded it down to raw and now he wants to paint it.  It’s going to look cool but I preferred for my frames to be thick.

20% Percent Project Week 5

            On our 20% project were changing it up a bit. Instead of recording our video on the beach were going to take pictures of our bikes when we ride to different places in the city of Anaheim.  Me and Taylor we start taking pictures whenever we see it’s a “good shot” then well put all our pictures into a power point me and my partner Taylor are planning to take around 100 pictures or more!  Taylor has already started taking his own pictures. Taylor’s pictures were taken around where he lives his pictures were taken and edited by him.  I haven’t started taking any picture yet but I will start taking them as soon as I’m done sanding down my bike.  My picture will probably be taken with 2 different bikes because I might change my bike and get a new one.  My current bike is blue and I’m sanding it down and it will be chrome.  

20% Project week 3

20% Project week 4

On my project so far all I need is to fix my bike, I need to improve it and fix it the cost so far will be a chain ring they cost like around $25-$30 dollars the one I have is too small and it gets more tiring.  My partner and I still need to find the right day to make the video.  We also need to get the equipment ready for the day and also get Taylor’s friends ready for the video and inform them the date so they can inform us if they can go or they can’t.   If Taylor’s friend(s) can’t go then were going to have to make another date to make the video but it would probably be easier to get ready for the day because we would have all the equipment ready for the day.  I’m pretty sure that when we get the date ready we will go on the date so we won’t have to change the day. 

20% Project Week 2

Fixed Geared Blog Week 2

On our second week I and my partner Taylor are planning on how we are going to record and where we are going to record our fixed geared mission and how many people we are going to use in the video.  I’m still getting my bike ready because my bike is having some problems on the cranks and I’m going to change the whole bike for another one and hopefully I won’t have any problems on the other bike I’m going to get but I’m going to show what would be a problem if we don’t fix the bike right and I’m going to show how to fix it and why it’s important to fix the problem before you get in a problem.  I and Taylor are still discussing on what we are going to mainly show on the video and what kind of tips we’re going to show. 

20% Project Week 1

           My project will be about fixed gear riding.  I and my group of fixie riders will ride to the beach and we will do some tricks and tips to teach beginners on their bikes.  These tips can help beginners on preventing accidents and if they do it right it can look cool and you can do it and in other ways then the one you learned.  My partner Taylor Davis and I will be riding to the beach with his friends and we will be recording on our way there and we can have one of his friends record one of us doing tricks and stunts.  One of the main tricks that we will be doing is a skid.  The skid is mainly to help stop fast.  The skid can help prevent crashes and other accidents.  Another one that we will teach is a Skip Stop.  A Skip Stop is another way to stop and it doesn’t waste your tires as much as the regular Skid.
