Break or be Broken
Took part in Carbondale's 350 action yesterday. Ran into an old friend that I didn't even know was living in town, hung out with some great folks, and got out of the house on a rainy day. 

(Fun math note, Dales donated 350 cans of beer for the action, but because of the rain, only around a hundred or so drinking age folks showed up. Good beer-to-human ratio.) 

But more important than an environmental protest action, I also managed to learn fixie skid! First on loose gravel (that whole traction thing being the issue) and then on pavement headed home. 

Fear me, for I can break.

Sorta. 

When I'm lucky.

Take it or leave it from wikipedia, but carbondale was named after carbondale pennsylvania, where some settlers came from. probably pissed off some settler ghosts.

Stone Brewery in Escondido, CA distributes Dale's. One more thing from home I can get when I'm in San Diego :)

I think you should get video of your skid-braking.
