#NatureIsMetal

I’m in Los Angeles today, en route for Santa Barbara and the ATOC tomorrow but before leaving town, I had to do a cross ride with Kyle. Some ups, just as many downs and a few spills made for a great ride. While my film sits in its canister, awaiting being developed, check out these two photos from Kyle’s Instagram. I forget how beautiful Los Angeles is, especially this time of year in the mountains. Nature is so metal.

Praise the Necronomicog.

Gettin’ Weird in Tracko Camo

Did you get weird this weekend?

“There is nothing like a good vest for the Spring time. It’s in the 50s when you leave home and it can be 20 to 30 degrees warmer by the middle of the day. I’ve worn this vest over a lightweight jersey with arm-warmers when it’s 50 degrees and I’ve worn it unzipped and flapping in the wind when it’s 80 degrees. Vests are one of the most versatile pieces of outerwear you can own, on the bike or off. We chose camouflage because we wanted something that would disappear, allowing it to be worn with anything.”

I’ve ordered one already but if you haven’t, do so at Tracko. Ace did a great job once again!

Kyle’s been so pumped on this project and I can see why. He teamed up with Endo Customs to design a riding vest. But let’s face it, there are already enough black riding vests, so he went with a WWII M90 Swedish splinter camo design. This weekend, he hired a male model to ride around in the woods and well, model the vest. Check out more information at Tracko! Save me one!

Trackosaurus Rex: Arik’s 49cm Cannondale Track

49cm

Most builders will tell you that a bike has the best proportions around 54-56cm in size. Yamaguchi will tell you that a 49cm bike will bring all frame design problems to the forefront. Modern cycling tells you that the tighter, more compact the frame is, the stiffer, lighter and most importantly, pro it is. All that applies here. Is Arik short? Or just going for that über pro look?

Golden Saddle Cyclery: More Caps in Stock

GSCCyclingCap2ndround

Every time Tracko posts these up, I buy one. I can’t help myself!

This is our second hat in a two part series based on old Blackburn saddle bags.  This time we’re all alone, so we got a little crazy and when we say crazy, we mean Hi-Viz! The cap was once again designed by Team Dream Designs.  Still constructed by Pace Sportwear using their three panel design with the slim “FLIPPED” visor, and KoolFit® Elastic Sweatband.

Pick one up here!
