Everyone, this is Lacey

I was very fortunate to have been given the Sector 9 Lacey by that young upstart Jackson Shapeira for services to the Wild West race near Hartley. Heavily inspired by Benbro Hay I got my hands on a set of the cast Kahalani Trucks and a set of the Orangatang Kegels. This little baby was going to wheelbite badly so it was Riptide Bushings to the rescue.

That Lacey is a good looking little lady that I will enjoy riding.

Basement Skate

Hop wanted out..Robbo wanted in and so it begins. Robbo finally has some skin in the industry that he loves. I hope that Hop will give Robbo a head start and not get in the way by keeping the Hopkin Skate site operational... that would be the right thing to do.

Branding - here we are

About the Number '42'

42 is:

The number achieved by multiplying the Devil's number (6) and God's number (7).

The angle in degrees for which a rainbow appears;

42 is the product of the first three terms of Sylvester's sequence; like the first five such numbers it is also a primary pseudoperfect number.;

In 1966, mathematician Paul Cooper theorized that the fastest, most efficient way to travel across continents would be to bore a straight hollow tube directly through the Earth, connecting a set of antipodes, evacuate it (remove the air), and then just fall through. The first half of the journey consists of free-fall acceleration, while the second half consists of an exactly equal deceleration. The time for such a journey works out to be 42 minutes. Remarkably, even if the tube does not pass through the exact center of the Earth, the time for a journey powered entirely by gravity always works out to be 42 minutes, as long as the tube remains friction-free, as while gravity's force would be lessened, so would the distance traveled at an equal rate;

42 is the number with which God creates the Universe in Kabalistic tradition;

From the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy. The Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything is calculated by an enormous supercomputer over a period of 7.5 million years to be 42. Unfortunately no one remembers what the question is.
