slight break from the blogging vacation

so just when i said i was over blogging, i'm right back at it. my reasons are completely self motivated as the good people at the born free bike show blog featured a piece of work that i did recently.

will you look at that, my 2 minute photoshop/ ms paint job actually made it to the interweb! thanks fellas

going on vacation....

I’m taking a blog break my friends; not shutting it down – just going on vacation from posting. There will be updates from time to time, but I can’t say when.

For those who are iphoners, I will be posting via instagram – look me up under nickpanesar. Thanks for dropping in folks, its been fun.

best ad in a while....

i saw this commercial on TV last night and just had to post it up as it reminds me of nan and Johnny boy and their disgusting love for techno, check it out

i love it! the commercial, that is. techno still sucks

better late than never

so i think i blew the transmission on my bike. yep, i said it. i think its blown. that didnt stop me from adding a pair of detroit brothers BMX risers to the hog. i've always loved these risers and the detroit bros stuff, so thanks to JJ at boltsaction for the hookup

so what if i cant ride it, at least it looks good

charlie fu*%ing slasher!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

after two years of saying "next year, next year" the stars aligned and the Capita charlie slasher 158 joined my shred quiver today. Man, i am beyond hyped for this thing and cant wait till the snow falls so i can rip a turn with Capita's powstick. Accompanied by a pair of Union Atlas bindings in purple this combo is gonna be my board of choice this upcoming season.

hype up to spense from easyloungin for helping me make my decision. Also, a note to the kids out there, go support a company like capita, as they are in the game for all the right reasons

B-109 suckahs!!!!

Dave over at B-109 in Utah ordered up some die cut stickers recently, and was kind enough to give my little side business a hype up.

for a little background, B-109 is a rad site that covers skate, shred, motocross, art and much more. these homies are in it for the love of game and should definitely be supported. check em out, you'll be down

the good people over at faceshots are having their annual pre-season sample sale. so if you need boards, bindings, boots, outerwear or just wanna grab a beanie, drop by -check the flyer for more info

mandatory burnout

best picture ever

So this morning I get an email from Nan, entitled "what i did on my holidays." As Nan had just returned from the annual "Man-trip" to Las Vegas, my mind ran wild with the possibilities of what the email contained. So for the next hour or so, I tried to avoid the email, as work mates strolled back and forth. "what could it be?" i thought. Knowing the debautchery of las vegas, my mind played out every possible circumstance. Then the time had come.. to open the email. I turned my monitor, ever so slightly, and peered over the cubicle walls to ensure privacy, then i opened the email.... and saw the photo below.

Easily the greatest picture ever, thanks guy!

back to the future in richmond

Harm does his best Marty Mcfly impersonation in this bangin delorean. i think we should install a flux capacitor and look for doc brown. awesome pic man!

drivin in Langley

Recently, John boy and i dropped in on the Langley hot rod and classic car show to check out the sites. man, it was bonkers as there was cool rides all over the place; so much so that we were not able to check out all of em. despite my lazyness, here's my highlights of what we saw

the rides of No9 customs, and some amazing race bikes - despite these bikes, the rest of the bike section was pretty lame

really, really diggin these rides lately

hot rod nerd material

overhauled

remember that show Overhaulin. man, i loved that show, they would "steal" a persons car and then return it to em all done out. Apparently some dork complained about the work that was done to his car, which resulted in the show getting canned. Bitterness aside, my favourite ride that they built was Chip Foose's truck. this thing was all time and is my dream ride right now, check it out - you know you love it

johnny on the spot

one thing about this bike is that its loud. now i'm talking loud in a nasty,ass kicking way; i love it. John took a bone stock 2009 harley "girls" bike and hammered out what you see here. What i dig about the bike is the details - john took the stock risers, cut and machined them down to what you see in the pics - while also cleaning up the dreaded eye brow. next thing on the list was to make up some tank lifts and chop the rear struts and fender. in the end, the bike is loud, fast and fun as hell to ride. check the specs

2009 harley davidson nightster
friscoed tank
removed front signals
relocated ignition
relocated coil
relocated speedo
Master blaster bars (dimpled by john for stock controls)

chopped rear struts & fender
sidearm exhaust by walt at ragerbuilt
forward controls

on the horizon

i've been wanting to do a feature on john's bad ass nightster for a while, and today i finally got the chance. we had a ton of fun crusing around, shooting pics and video. john even laid down some sweet burnouts for your viewing pleasure. you'll have to wait for the video to see all of that, but for now enjoy these teasers

oh yes, we are living the dream

badass.

awesome eh

love and hate... the story of a man and a muffin

I grew up a hater of anything pumpkin; as I imagined that it would taste alot like a sour potato, and the idea of having that in a pie was something that made me sick at the very thought of it. Years went by, and I would see people eating pumpkin pie and think "that must be gross. fools" that was until a few years ago when I was tricked into having a piece of pumpkin pie with whipped cream. I can remember it like it was yesterday, I was so into the pie, thinking "man, this cinamon nutmeg pie is awesome." after finishing the pie I was then told that I had actually eaten pumpkin pie; what wasted years I thought. Why did I deprive myself of the brilliance that is the pumpkin? Nostalgia aside, I have since fallen in love with the pumpkin, and the glorious treats it produces.

That brings me to the point of this whole post - As they do in the fall, the good people of Starbucks have released their amazing cream cheese pumpkin muffin. I love this thing, and have enjoyed three in the past 3 days. I even considered eating another one today, but was thwarted when starbucks had sold out of them; maybe a sign from a higher power that I should wait? Nevertheless, I will return tommorow. If you were like me and avoid pumpkin like the plague, do yourself a favor and drop in on a pumpkin cream cheese muffin, your tummy will thankyou.



Ode to the pumpkin muffin - I hate you pumpkin muffin for making me fat. I hate you pumpkin muffin for making me spend all my money. I hate you pumpkin muffin for the time I waste thinking about eating you…. I love you pumpkin muffin.. Until tommorow

super sunday

So I get a text from Naj asking if I wanted to join him and some buddies on a bike ride this past Sunday. As I hadnt seen Naj in some time, and experienced the crazyness of his hellraiser I jumped at the opportunity.

meeting spot at a local funeral home - is that bad karma?
The ride kicked off with about 10-15 guys in tow; and was predominatley sport bikes with a few harleys, a suzuki cruiser and a speed triple triumph thrown into the mix. Initially, it was mellow as we cruised around the backroads of langley bc, when the sport bike guys turned things up. My bike held its own, but was no match for the speed triple; that thing is unbelievebly fast.

speed triple single sided swingarm, awesome.
The crew planned to keep going to harrison, but a few of us had to head back and take care of domestic duties so Naj, a couple of buddies and I pealed off for a beer. Despite being horribly hung over from the night before I made it through a beer while laughing my ass of after hearing the latest edition of "fight stories with Naj." after scaring the other restaurant guests, we headed out for an entertaining ride home, full of wheelies, skids, and other awesomeness.

at the rest spot. the neighbours were scared.
Overall, a great day in the sun which left me hyped on how the bike performed. The family and I ended the day at one of my favorite places in the world, Spanish Banks. Thanks for the invite Naj, the hellraiser still kills it!

best way to end a great day.

stickers, we got stickers here, stickers

a few people know that i have been busily making die cut stickers for people on the side for the past few years. yeah, shred stickers have been the order of the day as kids from all over email me asking for a burton logo combined with a picture of their girlfriend. weird requests aside, i recently did up some stickers for the homies over at boltsaction and Jeremy featured said stickers on their blog.

Bolts!
This resulted in a bunch of folks that i havent dealt with before asking, "hey man, are you legit" and "where can i see your work" as that was the case, i put together a little blog dedicated to sticky side of my life. check it out here and if you want some die cut stickers done, drop me a line, thanks.
