Bodega collaborated with Baileyworks to create the ultimate set of a bike, a messenger pack and a touring tee. It comes in three flavors, the Independent Fabrication Duck Hunter, Mellow Fellow (above) and Fixie. Enjoy some stylish cycling…
Two of our favorite brands teamed up to create a special Transit Elite Sweater in Nepal. Rapha & Apolis Activism. ‘Luckily enough, Shea Parton of Apolis Activism and Cole Maness of Rapha were able to cycle these mountains, and it’s inspiring to see that they were able to capture the sights and sounds of the area by doing the things they’re passionate about.’ Lovely!!

A very nice collaboration again: The Barbour x To Ki To T630 Bicycle Jacket. Looks like a perfect mix to me… Available at Oipolloi.
I stumbled upon this lovely blog by Jordan Clark Haggard.
“The Blue and Red is a visual journal created while on and around the bicycle. These images serve as documentation of my experiences racing and training as a top amateur cyclist in Southern California.” Great to see two of his passions combined in one project.
Freeman just came with this nice set of pouches. The ultimate set for your travels is made of waxed canvas and chambray lined.
More on cycling: Beloved Cycles are ‘handcrafted, balanced, purposeful, elegant, confident and capable’ custom made bikes. I love their poetic descriptions about the bikes. Here the Everyday: “…The town and the city enrapture its very being of existence. A new route or a constant stream of consciousness are the dreams that lift it over a rise or river as the world changes all around… Ride on. Sun. Rain. Smile. Everyday.”
A new issue of The Ride Journal rolled from the press with again a lovely illustration by Ilovedust and some beautiful work by PDXcross (a.o.). The Journal continues to bring cycle passion from riders worldwide. From committed everyday riders to World Champions. Let’s go for a ride…
Two of our favorite classic bike builders. One from the east coast and one from the west cast of the US.
Bilenky Cycle Works, a custom bike builder with a rich history which goes back to 1983. And Jitenska Studio, with suburb hand made frames and the same define eye for detailing and quality.
New treasures in the new Blend nr 45 featuring Marijn Akkermans, the Gentleman’s Cap by Rapha, our favorite new danish label Libertine-Libertine and the Le Labo candle Petit Grain 21. Enjoy Blend (dutch) here > and the treasures here >
I love the simplicity of New York based Bertelli bicycles. This protoype with a lovely vintage brooks saddle will be ready for sale on starting spring 2010. Every part is assembled by hand, finished and fine-tuned by Francesco…
Seroj pointed me to this lovely short documentary on Brooks saddles with beautiful images of the factory and the craftsman working there. The documentary was made for the Bicycle Film Festival by Selectfilm.de, directed by Philipp von Kap-herr, story by Andrea Meneghelli.
Lovely trailer for a promising video by Mutiny – traveling around the world in search of the best spots for their cycling stunts… Will be available September 2009 on DVD and Blu-ray. Filmed and edited by Joe Simon.
I quite like this tiny bike by Bruno, a Japanese based cycle company. It’s not a folding bicycle, but a travel companion when hitting the road by plane or train and, at your destination, want to go faster than the average folding cycles. You can ‘compress’ the bike to 100 x 56 cm, the only thing you’ll need is a proper bag. Let’s ask Guu-Watanabe to make one…
“For two years cyclists have gathered under the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway for weekly ‘peel sessions’, pushing the limits of the evolving sport of fixed-gear freestyle.” A very nice audio slide show by the New York Times.
Incredible beautiful cycle bags by Guu-Watanabe. This Japanese handcrafted custom made bags are made out of water repellent 22.3oz cotton duck with cowhide. The bags are made after each custom order and numbered from 0 to 999. Love them…
The Ride, a new magazine born out of love for bikes with an amazing amount of articles on the full scale of cycling. Download the first issue here. Can’t wait for the next issue!
