The Art of The Bacon Strip

Ride: Bike Art by Brian Raszka

How would you like to have this painting all to yourself, and support northern Nevada art and cycling at the same time? Here’s the deal from Team Bacon Strip:

I’d like to introduce Brian Raszka, local artist, commercial illustrator, web designer and cyclist. He’s a mountain biker, roadie, tourer and urban commuter who eats the best organic, chemical free, free range bacon you can buy. And he wants to help support The Bacon Strip by letting us auction off this painting to pay for new stickers, patches, banners, and hosting.

Bidding will start @ $35 with a buy-it-now of $150. Auction ends Nov 24, 200910:07:44 PST. Some of the proceeds, depending on the final price, will go to fund TBS and BikeCarson Hosting. The rest goes to Brian.

More information can be found over on The Bacon Strip.

For Sale

You may have noticed a new tab at the top…”For Sale”. If you have something you’d like to sell, let me know and I’ll post it for you. Here are two of the bikes I currently have for sale (I also have two little BMX bikes, a Free Agent 12″ with training wheels, and a Specialized 16″ BMX…details and pics this weekend).

For Sale – 2004 Kona Coiler – $650

This is Kona’s 2004 Freeride rig that was built to thrill on the descents, but also be manageable on the uphills.

The 18 inch frame has 5 inches of travel front and rear. The fork is a Marzocchi coil spring with tunable low pressure air assist. The rear shock is a Fox coil spring with “pro-pedal” and tunable rebound. The pro-pedal does a great job at minimizing pedal bob. The frame is stiff laterally, and feels very stable at speed and in the rocks.

Coiler

The rear suspension bearings and bushings have been replaced, and have very little time on them. In fact, the bike has been ridden very little in the last couple years, and is just taking up room in the garage.

Here’s a list of some of the parts:

  • Race Face downhill bars, 28 inches wide.
  • XT rear dérailleur with brand new housing and cable.
  • Hayes Hydraulic brakes.
  • Form fitting Marzocchi front fender (easy to take on and off)
  • Tioga Factory DH 2.3 Tires with very little wear.
  • Race Face cranks and bottom bracket.

If you’re interested, send me an EMAIL. The bike was bought new by me in the Fall of 2003, for $1,500. Local buyers only…no shipping.

For Sale – 2004 Haro Mirra 540 – $150

Here’s another bike I seldom ride that needs to go. I used to play around at the skate park on this bike when I lived in Gardnerville, but I haven’t been in a long time. The bike is in great shape, as I didn’t have the courage to do the things all the kids were doing.

It only has a rear brake on now, but a front brake comes with the purchase too. Also included are four axle pegs.

If you’re interested, send me an EMAIL.
