Comment on How to Lose Weight for Business Travelers by Jeff Nisbet

It all comes down to self control. Take me for example. I have none. Bring on the 2$ High Lifes at House of Hayden, and the endless chips and salsa at SuperMex.

@jeff Thanks for the comment. I’ve definitely been seeing more townies around town too. I do have to say that riding around town on a townie is much more relaxing than riding a fixed gear bike around town. Plus strapping groceries to a townie is much easier.

What sort of idiots can’t tell the difference between a $7K carbon fiber bike, like a Delta 7, and a steel fixed gear bike put together in a sweaty bike co-op? What losers!

Put me down for the Key West beach cruiser

Lately, I am find around the Long Beach bike scene that the competition, or battle, between roadies and fixies is becoming less of an issue. I know prevalent, fixed-gear heads are deciding to cruise with vintage townies as a way to get to A to B. It seems the language of seeming guerrilla style biking has taken a back seat. Don’t get me wrong fools, fixies are still out there mashing. More motha f”cking power to them. But my ass is getting old, and my knees are like the author of this blogs….shot.

Shit aside, I love the aesthetics of the fixed gear over the roadie. The lines, composition, color, and overall practicality creates beautiful objects.

@kelsey Thanks for your comment. I’ve not seen the video of them in Paris. I’ll definitely check it out. Sounds fantastic. If I were standing in the street and then a bunch of scattered people all started singing or playing in unison, I’d be so surprised and excited.

this is a great video. Zack Condon’s voice is so raw and full of emotion.
There is a video of them performing this song in the streets of Paris. The percussion is played on trash bins and they sort of stand in a non-organized group so as not to single out one particular musician. Their overall sound is so worldly and inviting, who wouldn’t want to stay around for a listen?

@glenn Thanks for your comments. First off, I like how they are creating a clean “sub-brand”…not really…but kinda. The imagery on the All Nighter Twitter and website is great. It helps dispel the old, bland yellow Denny’s that we all know and love. I think they are on the right track, but should tie up their loose ends…in Taiwan. LOL.

I’d agree with you about that Twitter profile being agency run. Though it is highly targeted and geared for delivering metrics, they could do a bit better about not making every post “conversion centric”. If it’s too corporate, then people will be reminded that it is the old, bloated yellow Denny’s.

What do you think of Denny’s “social media agency type twitter profile” http://twitter.com/DennysAllNightr

Since it points to an independently-measurable address, http://www.dennysallnighter.com/ I’m pretty sure it’s an agency run profile. It looks a lot better than the Taiwanese hijacked-looking twitter profile, that’s for sure. Man, I wonder how the Denny’s folks wouldn’t manage their reputation a bit better! lol

@Kelsey It’s a strange place and definitely for people that don’t take themselves too seriously. So right and yet oh so wrong on so many levels.
