Vigoreally?
Came across these on the interwebs .. Looks like an Xperience road frame, but branded as a Vigorelli .. hmmmm. This one is cute too.  Good find, Rex.

A Closer Look - 2010 Cinelli Vigorelli
All the photos I’ve seen have been real shotty and gross, so I figure’d I would share a higher-res photo of the 2010 Vig.  Aside from the decals and the smiley face underneath the frame, not much has changed from the 2009 (well, they made it 10 grams lighter, w00t!).  Personally, the 2007 is my favorite.

WNW BX Ride
Aside from the spills, casualties, chainbreaks, flats, and losing some heads — the BX route was an awesome ride on another surprisingly awesome day in New York.  The Black Sabbath cover band at the party wasn’t too shabby either.  Here’s some faves from the ride.  Peep my entire Flickr set here. Last look at the polaroid wall at the WNW space. Mighty Quality Healthy...

Angelo vs. Concrete Pillar
Long story short:  Car door hits China, China flips over bars into Angelo, Angelo loses control.  Angelo slams into concrete pillar.

Get Well Soon Kyle
Our homie Kyle got sniped by a cab on 1st Avenue yesterday at the start of the WNW Bronx ride.  He got carried away in an ambulance and we found out later that his arm was dislocated and broken.  Luckily, the rest of him (and his bike) are OK.  Get well soon. As for the hit and run cab driver — we got your plates, sucka.  Doneski.

It’s been a while since I bought a pair of Nike’s.  Had to do it.  Who needs front lights when you’ve got these on?  Shout to the homies at NSW.  More photos via DQM. 100% of NIke’s profits go to Lance’s LIVESTRONG foundation.  Support. Day .. Night ..
