Brian's Neon MTB


























Posting my own bike reminded me to post this.  My friend, Brian, got a mtb for free, so he decided to make it into something he would actually ride.  The painting process took the better part of 3 days and by the end I was tired of looking at the stupid thing that I didn't even care, but it came out really nice.  It was also SS modded.

My New Fixie

Schwinn LeTour III frame with original stem, bars, cranks, and front wheel (for now).  Brakes removed and replaced with a cute little safety brake.  Seat from another bike, and the rear wheel is Swift Arriv fixed/free.

Travel Khan Shatyry Entertainment Center



Travel Khan Shatyry Entertainment Center
The Khan Shatyry Entertainment Center in Astana will become a dramatic civic focal point for the capital of Kazakhstan, the soaring structure, at the northern end of the new city axis, rises from a 200m elliptical base to form the highest peak on the skyline of Astana. The 100,000sqm centre’s unique concept - to provide a sheltered environment embracing an urban-scale internal park, shopping and entertainment venue - was developed in response to the harsh climate of extreme weather in both winter and summer. The building will become a lively public space and an unprecedented amenity for the people of Astana which can be used throughout the year.
