My photos were published in CX magazine! Emily Haddad asked me to shoot the CX art show at Rapha a couple months ago, and they just posted the article for the event. I'm always stoked to have my stuff published. Read their article here.

Benny Gold & The Mission Map Project

Benny Gold for Mission Map Project from Agency Charlie on Vimeo.



Fuck yeah! A couple days ago, I posted on Chas working with Agency Charlie on the Mission Map Project. Well now Benny Gold is added to that list! Here's the excerpt from their page:

"The Mission district of San Francisco is by far my favorite neighborhood in the city. It’s the neighborhood where I live, where my store is located and the one that I am raising my daughter in. I am proud to be a part of a community that is growing daily and has so much to offer.

Over the past few years a lot of business, people, art and personalities have moved into the Mission. Mike Giant and PPC has gotten together to highlight the things that we love about the neighborhood. The Mission Map Project consists of a hand drawn map, by Mike Giant (How cool is that!) and an accompanying video project by Agency Charlie.

Here is my sit down with them to discuss why we opened up our SF retail storhttp://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gife in this particular neighborhood and how my life revolves around 4 Mission blocks.

I hope that it gives you a little insight into this amazing neighborhood. Check out the rest of the interviews here to see why this neighborhood is so special.

Thank you for including me!"

Looks like there's a whole slew of interviews to peep.

Affinity S&S Coupled Metro Prototype




Affinity's got a prototype in the works. Their Metropolitan frame has keirin inspired geometry TIG welded with 4130 Chromoly tubing. What's awesome about this prototype is the S&S couplers. Forget airline fees and get yourself a serious steel track frame to travel with.

Now if only someone did this with a Lo Pro... Check out more flicks by Affinity & Prolly below.

New York : Tweed Run



The Yung Jen Whalen sent me over this video about the Tweed Run in New Yorhttp://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gifk. Starting out of London, it made its way over to New York a couple years ago and has spiraled into a phenomenal ride. Check out the Tweed Run website and watch the clip so you can gawk at Jen if you'd like.

That's right. If you want part of Cadence's awesome sale, you're going to need to get your ass down to the Bike Expo. You can buy tickets at select bike shops throughout the city. Check out their FB for more info.

Philly : House Party Cat 4



If Bike Expo wasn't this weekend, I would buy a plane ticket out. Jeff & friends throw their 4th House Party Cat and if the flyer doesn't get you pumped, check out the video below. It's 10:22am and I feel the need to be hammered. And check out their FB page!

Everyone's favorite fixed gear deep V company available in a bajillion colors and patterns will now be manufacturing their goods in Florida.

Seoul Got Soul : Fallen Leaves



Back in the early 90's, Soul had a promising leap towards implementing bike lanes, but due to poor planning, it created more congestion than relief. Seoul Got Soul is a film project highlighting the lack of bike lanes and hopes to spur up bettehttp://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gifr planning this time around.
