I’m nominating Javier for Rida of the Week.
Javier is a real team player. He always has a tube when you have a flat. He's always willing to kick you a beer. Never flakes out on you. Also a great marathon runner and family man.
I remember one of my first rides I went on, I didn't know anyone, and I was feeling a little anxious about being surrounded by a bunch of people I didn't know.
Javier walked right up to me, shook my hand and then cracked open a beer for me. All in under 5 seconds.
Later on that eve I got a flat and was ill prepared to deal with it. I had no tube, pump or anything. I propped my bike up on the curb and tried flagging people down. Some people stopped, but no one had a tube or patch kit or anything. But they said that Javier did, so one them called him up and he ended up turning around and heading back to help me out.
He's a pretty big hearted dude, and a great example of what a true rida should be.
I remember a couple months ago chillin' in the park after a ridazz and it was close to 2 and we all ran out of beers so I emptied out my Chrome and gave it to him to make the fastest beer run ever! He fit a full 30 pack of tecates in there and lugged the thing back all by himself!!!
I don't know Javi that well - we haven't had a lot of conversations, but he's always smiling and he seems like a super friendly guy.
A friend of mine came in from out of town and wanted to ride, so Javier let my friend use his bike, while Javi hauled himself around on a heavy-ass clunker all night.
sexy, stop being an elitist and introduce to some new people one of these days. You would get along well with Javi. He's very into politics and bike culture. He's always at the brunch so i'm surprised you haven't met him.
to be honest he's around a lot but i actually just started to know him by name in the past month or two. he's a super chill dude!!! why can't i find a picture of him???
Javier, signs in for the first time today. Predictable
Such EPIC FAIL.
Another reason why TWBG is such a substandard bike gang.
You couldn't even plan logistics properly. No pictures ready, a brand new member on this board. No non-trent way members making the case for this so called Javier qualifications to be ROTW.
Then accusing Sexy of being another ulter-ego on this board.
Why couldn't you at least have some better imagination and used, say Harvey, the big imaginary rabbit as ROTW.
This is imaginary rida made up ROTW thread.
FOILED within one hour of its original posting
big time
alright trent way, its time to drink some more crappy Tecate, eat
some bland chili, drop a duce, play guitar hero, and fall off your bike on the way back to the car.
Stick with what you know.
I do exist. I do not own a computer and am not computer savy, so i have never logged in on this site. I'm using a friends computer right now because Brassknuckle mentioned he voted for me. Tren Way has been very nice to me and invited me on their Tuesday night rides which I have attended on occasion. I have even met you on multiple occasions sexy. I will make sure to introduce myself again at brunch. Thanks again for voting me Rida of the Week. I'm still a little surprised.
sexy, why don't you come back to WPH with me. You did it before. Will you ever do it again?
I will, as soon as my monday nights free up. 2 more mondays to go in night clown/character training.
You too should make it a fitness goal. put on some spandex when your ass shrinks back down too.
why do you dump on people so much? you are obviously upset coz you are gaining unsexy weight while you are sitting on the computer all day waiting for your foot to heal. Personally as a friend i will tell you that if you still have to wear that ridiculous boot, then you should not be riding. Foots and ankle injuries are not 2 be taken lightly. You need to walk run and ride your bike you're entire life, take care of that foot. We'll figure out who javier is. Be a more supportive community member and less of a fat "ass" community member.
Congratulations Javier. Is it FUNANU or the other Javier I've recently met?
"Alright trent way, its time to drink some more crappy Tecate, eat

I'm supposed to be getting ready to head out, but I couldn't pass this one up. Javier, you fucking rule. Cool, helpful, fun to be around. Thanks for riding with us, man.
I'm real sorry. I don't know if I can make it over to Brassknuckle's place tonight, but maybe I can take you to Pure Luck this week for dinner. You sure sound like a great guy. We could go anywhere you want, if you don't want pure luck I would like to interview you for Chicken Leather's show, Have you heard it? I want to start interviewing all the ROTW/ ROTM/ ROTY and rotd for the show.
Okay, I told myself earlier this morning that I would not fuck around online....that I would get the packing done...but I have to say that Javier is a great candidate and honoree or ridaa of the week, because he isn't all flashy and loud and dressed to be photo-attractive, but he is here. And, he has been here. And he is a solid dude..
I have a question....
How did you find midnight ridazz, and why did you keep coming out?
45 posts and no pic of Javier? What's up with that? Hardly anyone, other than TWBG and a couple of others are playing along with this. So what gives? Dan doesn't have a cam at his pad? Borfo posts on another thread some vague pic that I guess is suppose to represent Javier.
I don't know what the deal is. He was at Ridgeway Saturday night and he bought one of Mr Rollers pictures at his Bike Oven exhibit. I think he bought the one of Nicole at the Glow Ride.
Sexy, I bought the photo of Nicole at the Glo Ride. What happened was that I got to the show late and most of the photos had been sold. I really wanted that photo because I had been on that ride and really enjoyed it. Then Borfo called me later and said that if I really wanted that photo he'd let me have it and he'd buy another one, and besides maybe it wasn't such a good idea for him to have photos of other women hanging on his walls at home anyway. So that's a long winded story of how I ended up with the photo of Nicole.
Once again, I apologize for taking so long to answer your question. I had to wait until i could get over to my friend's house to use his computer.
Sexy, are you treating me to dinner? If so, how is next thursday for you? I'm looking forward to it. Where are we going? Pure luck? Will you treat if i bring anyone else with me?
Hey Sexy, I'm coming with you and Javier to dinner. And you're buying me dinner too for calling me a liar on the forum. And i'm ordering a big meal. And you're buying me scoops after.
I love how you text me asking how i'm going to get out of this one. Too bad for you Javier does exist. Next time why don't you play nice instead of shooting someone down just because you don't know them. I tried giving a nice guy his day and you went on the attack. See you next thursday. I think i'm not gonna eat all day just so i'm super hungry.
why do i have to take a picture of him? he exists. sexy will see soon enough. he rides. his brother works at the bike kitchen. he's in the scene. can't wait for the big apology from sexy. and i can't wait for my dinner.
what with this BELIEVE non-sense. Its not a religion, it a person, who exist or is made up. In this case it is the latter.
brassknuckles, I didn't invite you to dinner well I guess in around about way I did, since this Javier sign-in is created and written by you anybody can show up to Pure Luck. It is Javier, I invited and it is Javier who I'm taking to dinner. Please don't interrupt while I interview this person. The request for dinner and interview is the Rida of the Week, not the guy who made him up
This story is full of holes. Now you are going on the offense so I can take the defense, its not going to work. I'm sure it wasn't difficult to find a volunteer at the Bike Kitchen who has a brother named Javier, who might happens to ride a bike also. It will be easy to provide a bike for this person if they don't have a bike of their own. I'm sure it is going to be even more entertaining for you, if it happens to be Orlando's brothers.
No matter how much you cross you "t's" and dot you "i's". This lie will be exposed, even more so then it has. There will be no reason for a apology. You are already guilty, and the guilt will be proved even more.
Why not dinner tonight Javier, why are we waiting a whole week?
Wow, you should have a career change, Sexy. You should think about law school. I mean, shit....If you can make such a good case against Javi even existing at all...you might even be able to work with Johnny Cochran, even though I don't think you would fit the image so well. I don't think you could rock a double breasted suit with fat lapels. Anyway, I agree with Eric.
Wow tern, if everything you said is true, Thank You. That happens to be my career inspiration. If not, you made me warm (I don't think it can get any warmer then it is already) and fuzzy inside.
Regarding the double breasted suits, you have to look no further then my spare closet to see what I have kept of my double breasted collection. If you think I'm B.S.ing you just visit co-owner of LABreakless Thomas and ask him how I would wear a double breasted suit, just because I like the way I looked in it.
There is not much I'm good at, but wearing a suit happens to be one of those things I took to naturally. I started slowing down on wearing suits, when I started to use a bicycle as my main source of transportation, I stopped all completely with the suits when I entered into the cosmetology profession.
When I saw Boogloo Shrimp come into the Santa Monica City Hall Chambers, dressed in his suit, tie and shortened pants, I was like, "oh yeah, I'm bitting"
Javi is a creation of the Tren Way email list. Brassknuckles is the only one who did half a good job at trying to pull this off. The rest of you....Gee Whiz, try harder next time, think before you make it so obvious.
Brassknuckles is still trying, it will be interesting to see his next move.
I don't know, man, one night the dude just wouldn't stop making fun of my beer belly. I was getting close to going Arrogant Bastard on him when bananaphone took Javi's focus off my belly by offering him a smoke. Thanks bananaphone! Javi should thank you, too!
But, I must say, the guy is always there to get you rolling again. I think he's fixed or helped fix all 14 flats I've had in the last 6 months.
Heh. This whole thing reminds me of the time a certain Mr. Lopez tried to woo a certain Ms. Galactic Girl out of hiding on the LACM list. Comedy gold, I tell you.
Blah, blah, and you see, I'd tied an onion on my belt, which was the fashion at the time...
Greg, I remember that! I'm also really surprised more people don't know who he is. He was one of the first ridazz to strike up a convo with me when I went on my first ride back in February.
Also, not many Ridazz smoke. Should make it easy to single us out, I would think? Guess not :P

Ridazz Roulette!
I’m nominating Javier for Rida of the Week.
It's about time!
