Who shot yee? Hint: It’s usually someone you already know, Sir Smalls.

* Speaking of… diminutive and bespectacled shop CEO, Ryan, recently brokered a sleaze dipped deal with the fashion porn up-start, Jacque Quarterly; free prop bike rentals for free shop advertising. Oh yes, and complimentary hard copies too. Bald? Yes, more!

* We’ve been… Thunder Horsed! Video DJs, Alex Gvisvtckkschtch and Taran, of the The Incredible Shrinking Moped Gang are in town shopping for Desert Storm T’s, Pomade-resistant white Levis and… apartments. Let the Great Eastern Migration commence.

* Plus-sized Blog Captain, Nathan, has gone off the grid and onto Cuteness Trail II: I Get Intercourse This Time, Right?. The second run of the Bonny & Clyde style road adventure, but in place of robbering banks, Nathan and his lady will antique shop, argue about the rental’s gas light, and ignore each other’s physical needs. It’s truly Mr. Roadmaster’s last ride.

Only in New York, kids, only in New York.

WIRED Magazine Maintains Relevancy by Hopping Aboard the Moped Bandwagon

Monday, August 10th, 2009

A month or so ago, a smart fella named Bryan came by the shop for too long (3 weeks? C’mon Bryan, get a girlfriend) and took some mahogany-inducing pictures for a photo spread commissioned by Wired.com. Do yourself a favor and go there now to awe, mouth agape, at the marvelousness that is/was the salad days of the Orphanage Moped Shop.

Picture reprinted without permission because my name was misspelled without my damn permission. Also, “Rebels Without a Hog” pants-poopingly retarded.

Trail of Tears ‘09: The Land of Cleve

Tuesday, July 14th, 2009

This whole holding down the fort thing is getting a bit old. Hurry the f up, gentlemen. Don’t fall in love at the RnR Hall of Fame and forget about me.

I hear Cleveland is swimming in pussy these days. Go for it, Danno. It ain’t cheating if it’s in a different zip code.

Monday, July 13th, 2009

Check this out:

From the looks of it, the wayward travelers have hit the midwest. Last I heard they were in Ohio, soaking up the rays on those famous Ohio sandy beaches. Apparently they forgot it was bikini season. Back on the road, grossbodies!

Trail of Tears ‘09 – Pennsylvania Pilgrimage

Sunday, July 12th, 2009

The boys are nearing the fabled Allegheny National Forest in NorWest PA. Cast a level 9 burrito spell, young mage. There ain’t a Taco Bell for miles in that wilderness.

Also, Ryan needs a clutch. So… help?
