2014 Tour de France Predictions, In-Depth Reviews Of Overpriced Crabon Bicycles, and Satanic Death Cults!

Yesterday I posted this picture:


Which prompted a commenter to point out the following:

Anonymous said...

Snob, you DO know that David Berkowitz and his merry band of devil-worshipping misfits got the ball rolling early on with late night dog mutilation parties held RIGHT THERE where you took that snapshot in Untermeyer Park?

JULY 22, 2013 AT 6:42 PM 

Well, actually, no, I didn't know that.  Furthermore, I wish I still didn't because now I'm totally creeped out.  Thanks for like totally ruining this ride for me forever.

Anyway, naturally after reading that I spent a bunch of time searching the Internet for more information about the Son of Sam killings (inasmuch as I was like three years old at the time I only know the broad strokes, though my youth did rule me out as suspect) and the aforementioned park and found stuff like this:

But when the coven moved to the darkened ruins of a mansion in Yonkers' Untermyer Park, Berkowitz says, he began to realize what he had gotten himself into.

"It was pitch black and the guy who took us there seemed to know where to go, further down these winding paths," Berkowitz remembers. "There, I was introduced to some more people. . . . We would have our chants and our rituals and I did begin to witness some animal sacrifices."

He remembers finding the rituals "a little weird." But, he says, "I was fascinated."

After months of demonic prayer, animal sacrifices and participation in several ritual arsons in Yonkers and the Bronx, Berkowitz was formally initiated into the cult.

And this:

Former employees of nearby St John’s Hospital can still recall nights when chanting and torch flames were seen and heard in the depths of the woods, especially from the area of the now-demolished Devil’s Cave. There are those who maintain that harmless teenagers were the only ones frequenting the backwoods at night during the Seventies, but that belief flies in the face of some disturbing facts. Over Christmas 1976, dead Alsatian dogs, with their ears carefully excised, were found on the Aqueduct just south of Untermyer Park. In November 1979, a Westchester County Police Officer stumbled upon a sinister night-time gathering in the Lenoir Nature Preserve: a group of robed and hooded figures carrying torches and leading two leashed Alsatians.

Fuck it, I'm moving to Portland.

Actually, I'm sure they do all kinds of creepy supernatural ritual cult stuff in Portland too, because wherever you have inordinate amounts of white people who resent their parents you can be sure to find cults.  In fact, one could argue pretty easily that all of Portland is a cult--though due to the preponderance of veganism animal sacrifices are probably pretty rare there, and you're more likely to find a bunch of hooded figures gathering at midnight in Forest Park in order to slit the throat of a tofurkey, after which they probably dance around the Hairy Vagina Ball:


(Artisanal gynocentric paganism.)

As for my own past, besides listening to Slayer records I never came into direct contact with any actual animal sacrificing Satan worshippers, and the indeed the only cult behavior my peers engaged in was a twisted occult ritual called a "Bar Mitzvah."


(Mäzel Töv.)

Speaking of blood cults, apparently pro cyclists were removing their blood, shining a black light on it, and then putting it back in again in order to go faster:


The German National Anti Doping Agency had opened proceedings against an unnamed cyclist, charging that the treatments were blood doping. The German sports court ruled last fall that the method of removing blood, treating it with ultraviolet light and then re-infusing it, did not violate rules in effect at the time, as it has been specifically banned only since January, 2012. The NADA took that decision to the CAS.

I'm assuming the procedure was performed on a bean bag in a basement with wood paneling to the strains of "Don't Fear The Reaper" by the Blue Öyster Cult.

Anyway, as the article points out, the riders in question will not be punished because apparently this was not considered blood doping at the time, and it makes you wonder what other sort of not-yet-illegal methods the pros are using now.  In fact, I Tweeted words to that effect, and someone replied with this:

They offered no evidence to back that up, but then someone else came in with this:
I have no idea what any of this means or if it even matters, but I did use the Internet to look up ketone and evidently it's endorsed by the Fox News Channel and it comes in raspberry:


I give it two weeks before all the Freds on your local group ride smell like raspberry.

By the way, whatever these guys are on, it's a pretty sure sign of doping when your hair turns green:


You know what also improves performance?  Proper tire pressure.  And to that end, I've learned from some people in (oy) Portland that they've created an app that determines your proper tire pressure for you:


The Bicycle Tire Pressure Calculator is used to compute the optimal air pressure for your bicycle tires. Tires pumped too hard bounce down the road like a basketball, wasting energy. Tires pumped not hard enough are sluggish and prone to pinch flats. Tires pumped just right are at the optimal intersection of responsiveness, shock absorption, and energy efficiency.

Popular misconception is to pump a bike's tires to the highest number printed on the sidewall by the manufacturer. Instead, the optimal pressure is that which yields in a 15% sidewall drop. Sidewall drop is a non-linear function of the load on the tire and its width. It can be computed based on the weight of the bike, rider, bags, and gear. It is also different between front and back, depending on the frame geometry.

With this App, you can instantly compute the optimal tire pressure from your phone or tablet wherever you may be: in your garage, on the road, at a friend's house.

In fact, they offered to let me try it, but I don't have the right kind of smarting phone.  (Or they designed it for the wrong kind of smarting phone, depending on how you look at it.)  Furthermore, even if I did have a compatible smarting phone, I'm not sure I'd try it anyway, because I have a pretty reliable tire inflation app already:


(Not my hand, just a hand, but you get the point.)

Here's how it works.  First, I inflate my tire.  Then I take my hand app, squeeze the tire, and, using complex mental calculus determine if the air pressure is appropriate.  It's actually pretty easy, and if you're the sort of person who needs an app to figure out what air pressure to use in your tire then maybe you should also seek out an app that will help you find a new form of transportation, such as a skateboard of a pair of Rollerblades or some other means of conveyance with non-pneumatic tires.

By the way, another advantage my tire inflation app has over this other one is versatility, since in addition to determining proper tire pressure I can also use my app for wanking and nose picking.

So suck on that, Portland.

I personally use my scranus to adjust the tire pressure but not by the squeezing the tire though. Some days my scranus likes it hard and I pump up. When it's still hurting from the night before I release some.

You should try.

recumbent conspiracy theorist said...

For some strange reason I read the comments of the black light blood article at cyclingnews. I like ridleyrider's comment. I think he sums it up well and hope doesn't mind me reposting. And he said "conspiracy theory"

"We simply will not catch most dopers anymore. 15 years ago, the big hitters of EPO and HGH were prevalent in the peloton because they could not be detected. What did we see happen? Everyone was on EPO. Now that it is known how to detect it, we will only see the desperate riders on a lower budget using it.

Now, there are so many products out there that are only in testing that it simply is not possible to develop testing protocols for them - on top of that, since they are not on WADA's list, it is not technically doping. Riders can claim to be riding clean and by the letter of the law, they are right. What will we see happen now? Widespread doping of various degrees with the best connected teams getting the best stuff. Drug companies get their guinea pigs and millions are made from riders using the drugs. Riders may not even know if they are doping - making it impossible for them to tell anyone. It also makes them believable when they proclaim they are riding clean because they believe it.

Granted, all this is conspiracy theory. I do, however believe that it is largely correct but there is a darker side to it all that I cannot even begin to fathom. My belief is that riders in the short term will have big results, followed by a steep decline as the drugs take an unpredictable toll on their bodies."

It's a shame the cheaters gotta cheat and I wish it wasn't so but as I've said before I just watch it it for the castle porn.

babble on said...

Mmm raspberries...

So Keytones are the thing your body produces when you stop consuming carbs. It's the reason you can eat billions of calories on the Atkins diet and still lose weight. But I don't get it. How does THAT improve your athletic performance?

Anonymous said...

maybe I'm completely out of touch but it seems strange that the app discussed above lists the possible wheel sizes as 700c, 26" and 650b. I find it hard to believe that 650b wheels are even nearly as common as 27"... Maybe their logic is that if a 27" wheel has successfully been ridden for the last 30 years, it's doubtful they need this ridiculous app. oh well

My non-cycling buddy said they should have an Open Unlimited Outlaw Class (anything goes) in cycling like in Dirt track racing where there is no title on the line, just money. Sounds kind of neat.

Back in my Racing Days, I used to worry about air pressure and adjust if it was a road race or a crit, dry or wet, etc. Now I inflate to 110 and re-inflate when my tires feel too squishy. Usually somewhere between 60 and 80. Nothing like getting old and lazy.

I like how she says "I do not need to see any more mayonnaise enemas..." Like anyone will ever do that again, ever. Like mayonnaise enemas are such a numerous and plentiful commodity, in such vast oversupply, that you simply sit and watch mayonnaise enemas until such time as you have seen a sufficient number (somehow I guess you just know) and then you're all set: you don't need to see any more mayonnaise enemas.

ChamoisJuice said...

Grant Petersen probably thinks the Shinola guys stole his idea:

-blow smoke up the ass of bike nerds about craftmanship, while not actually building anything in house.

-replicate antiquated bikes at 5 times the cost of original. Shinola seems to be copying Raleigh 3 speeds instead of Fuji 10 speeds.

-they even use the same frame builder. Waterford was so much cooler when they made Schwinn.

-The more I look at it, Shinola is Rivendell 2.0. When is the Shinola newsprint zine coming out??

Snobby,

You must be one hell of a contortionist to check tyre pressure AND wank AND pick your nose with the same hand.

In any event, however accomplished you are in the practice, surely you're simply compromising the effectiveness of all three procedures?

For those not so dexterous, if you must conduct all three actions simultaneously, I might suggest combining the tyre-pressure-checking and wanking components in one undertaking (pinch flats be damned, go for a low tyre pressure) and dedicating the hand exclusively to nose picking functions.

If you also need to scratch your arse, you might have to take the plunge and consider using a second hand!

Performance enhancing artisanal mayonnaise enemas: putting the "anal" into artisanal mayonnaise, or the artisanal mayonnaise into the anus. Or whatever, I don't know, but I'm really glad we're having this conversation! I luv you guys. Yes, I am mildly inebriated. No, I don't mean "I love you" like that Brokeback Mountain watching queer McFly. I would never watch that filth, although I do hear the sex scenes were in tents. Mc Fly loves in-tents sex. Actually, a he's fan of any old sex. Okay, he's a fan of anything more stimulating than having a cold shower, in a frigid Antarctic wasteland, amidst the penguins. Those sexy penguins. Speaking of sexy geography, we have a mountain range near here called Broken Back Range and I'm so paranoid that one day I'm going to accidently refer to it as "Brokeback Mountain", because, you know, if I did that it would mean that I'm gay like McFly.

I recently watched Jake Gilliganhaul in the point of view cop drama "End of Watch". Spoiler: his boyfriend is shot dead. Hooray!

It's fun typing in busted weiner and getting the NYC mayoral race. Yes, I have no life.

RoadQueen said...

Aww, McFly isn't gay. He's way too much of a horny pig to be gay.

McFly: I mean that in the nicest, most endearing way possible. I wait for your hilarious, sexually charged posts with baited breath.

Seriously. I do. You're funny as fuck, don't ever change.
