PROLLY IS NOT PROBABLY

#GrandpasaurusRex

For those who have never seen Tracko before, I’m sorry. Tracko is no more. Now we’re stuck with Grandpasaurus Rex. I’m not so sure that’s necessarily a bad thing either. Check out a few more shots from my Recent Roll below.

Recent Roll: Reminder – It’s Friday

Redux: Recent Roll of Ty’s contribution to Sunset Boulevard… It’s Friday, so this weekend make sure and ride.

Shop Visit: Signal Cycles

Nate Meschke and Matt Cardinal began Signal Cycles in 2007 and in that time, they’ve produced some absolutely beautiful bicycles. Not just commuters either. Recently, Matt’s Cross Bike made an appearance here and their Saltzman Road frames are lovely. Bottom line, if you’ve spent any time looking at Pacific Northwest builders, Signal has crossed your radar a few times. Matt was kind enough to meet with me on his day off, and let me shoot some photos in their space. Check out more below!

Beautiful Bicycle: Yanco’s Waterford Track

Yanco is one tough dude. He recently completed a 100 mile race. Which he ran and every time I’ve rode with him, he’s in the big ring the whole time. He’s also the fella behind all the Yancosaurus Rex products, like those slick Ramblin Rolls that no one can get their hands on… I shot a few photos of him and his Waterford track bike outside GSC while I was in LA. Check em out!

Woody Hard at Work

I’ve got a bunch of scraps from various film backs that I’ll be posting periodically, starting with these two of Woody, the National Track Champ, Olympic mechanic and co-owner of Golden Saddle Cyclery. Check out one more below.

Brenton Salo: Sharky’s Heart Knees

Photo by Brenton Salo

Seeing Sharky in Portland can be described as seeing a “ball of muscle” wound up and spinning on his track bike. Brenton happened to get a great shot of Sharky at rest, with his knee tattoos in focus. Great photo man.

Golden Saddle Cyclery Kit Pre-Order Extended

Because you should be spending your time riding and boozing this weekend, GSC have extended their kit pre-order until Monday. Get your riding in but save your pennies because this is the last pre-order ever on these rad kits.

Rapha: Mr. Blick

This man keeps Oakley moving with everything related to two-wheels. He’s the elusive Steve Blick and Rapha has a survey up on their site, featuring an interview with the man himself. Check it out here.

Recent Roll: Velo Cult

If there’s one thing shooting with the Hasselblad has taught me it’s selection. Velo Cult‘s new location in Portland is far too massive to capture in a roll (or in this case, less than a half of a roll) but I feel like these photos pick up on some of the highlights. For those who want a more comprehensive Photoset, don’t fret, digital is on the way. It just so happened that the analog photos were done before the digital.

This shop needs no introduction but for those looking for a background, I do believe Velo Cult’s San Diego space was one of my first Shop Visits. Check the original photos out here.

Recent Roll: Spaces and Faces

Carrying around the Hasselblad all day is not exactly fun but when I get a few rolls back, from various Shop Visits, it’s all worth while. These photos are from recent spaces and faces, some of which you’ll recognize, others you wont.
