DIY Jersey City
Back in November, I checked out the popular Junkyard spot in Jersey City. The spot is exactly how you’d expect a Jersey DIY to be: crusty, tight transitions, and littered with locals drinking and smoking. A fun place to spend the afternoon. I can’t wait for Winter to be over. Here’s a video of a Z-Flex rider…

The “Historical” Blizzard of January 2015
Last weekend the the northern East Coast was hit with what was supposed to be a historical blizzard. The blizzard’s name was Juno.

These trips and…

First Week in Philadelphia
6/25/14 After spending a weekend in Camden, we were relocated to Temple University. Our home for the next month. It’s funny. After I graduated college I assumed I would be done living in dorms. However, since I graduated in May I found myself staying in three different dorms within the past two months. Apartment life will be spectacular.
