20% Project Week 8

This week I haven't taken any new pictures, I only have a few that I still haven't posted.  I have 5 pictures that I still haven't posted.  Next week I’m going to go somewhere and put my bike out in a good place to take the picture.  My bike is in good condition so it’s not that scratched.  I was going to go to the beach on Sunday with my friends but I couldn’t go because I had to do something with my other friend.  I’ll try to go to the beach with my friends this weekend.  We all ride fix geared bikes.  I ride aluminum my other friend rides cromolly? And my other friend rides on a Steal bike.  Steal bikes are more sturdy then aluminum in my opinion I like riding on a steal frame but they’re not that good.

                   I've gotten a couple of pictures of my Fix Geared bike (Fixie) I Get these pictures a while back and I haven't posted any up yet.  I've been thinking of taking my bike out to the beach and taking pictures of it there.  I've only taken my bike to the beach 4 times it was an okay ride but we took the storm drain.  That was is faster but its a little boring.  I haven't been to the beach on the street but I've gone half way; I almost got hit 4 times and I crashed with the side walk while I was riding on the street.  Riding down Brookhurst is one of the biggest mission all the bad drivers drive there, I messed up my coral grip tap, worse tape ever I use leather tap now. Leather lasts a lot longer and its $30, $10 more than Cora

                         In my week so far I haven’t taken any pictures I’ve been lagging with taking pictures so Taylor is the only person that has taken pictures lately.  He’s taken good pictures; I like the picture with his bike on the beach.  Taylor can go pretty far then me, my parents won’t let me go out that far.  I’ve been to the beach on my bike like 4 times.  I’m starting to get back to skating so I haven’t been riding my bike that much; so far I’ve ridden my bike once this w

eek.  My cousin rides my bike to school now.  He takes my bike and if he gets it stolen then I’m sure he’ll have to pay for it or I’ll make his dad pay for it.  If they do pay for it I’ll charge them like $350 for my bike.  That’s a good price for a fixie.

                This whole week I haven’t taken any pictures and my friend Taylor took a lot of good pictures.  He took pictures at the beach and he took a friend with him and he took pictures with two bikes.  His picture was pretty sick.  I have one picture so far.  Taylor's bikes is a leader, its kinda like mine but mine isn't the real brand I just got the decals and put them on the bike. The bike I got is cheaper than Taylor's.  Taylor's

bike was 200 bucks more.  His bike is made of the same material.  Our bikes are made of aluminum.  I have a tenny front rim, its made of aluminum too, and my back rim is made of aluminum too, I think.

            On my 20% project I got the picture back the one that had on my old iPod and got it to my iPhone.  I liked the picture it came out nice.  It was taken on top of the Down Town Fullerton Bridge.  The picture was a while ago but I still like it.  The picture was taken by my friend it was he thought it was a good shot and we should take more with his bike too.  I’m going to start taking pictures with my friend’s bike too.  His bike is really thin and light too.  His bike weighs as much as mine.  My bike is made of aluminum and his is made of aluminum too.  His bike is a SR Vintage.  I used to own his bike and he used to own mine, we traded bikes.  I like my bike and he likes his bike now.  I think we made a good trade

          A week or two ago I took an awesome picture of my bike on top of the bridge where it says “Fullerton” I had that picture on my iPod but now I sold my iPod and got the IPhone so I lost my picture.  I took that picture on my friend’s iPod and he sent it to me and I hope he still has it so he can resend it to me and I can re edit it.  The picture was hard to get because I had to leave my bike on top of the bridge and it could of fallen and cars could of ran in to it and gotten destroyed because it’s made of aluminum, but luckily it didn’t fall.  My friend Taylor took a cool picture over the weekend so I’ll just show a picture of his bike.  I liked his picture, it looks really professional.  It looks like it was taken by a professional camera but it was taken by his iPhone

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

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 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.

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.
