“Murder Of Couriers” Trailer

[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DpMiIyzJrMo]

Although I’ve never been a courier myself, I can feel the love.  It flows deep with courier homies, as well as cycling culture in general.  Thanks for bringing this to our attention Lockedcog!  Much appreciated sir!

I’ve seen a few of these rad shots via John‘s (@johnprolly) x Argonaut Cycles (@argonautcycles) Instagram; but this one from Mr. Watson’s Tumblr page takes the cake.  Such a beautiful creation. 

Make sure to check out Argonaut Cycles about page.  It has a great vid on how they came to be and the level of American made quality they put into their creations.  Ride x Create

TAM IT

TAM

“Named after legendary Bay Area Mount Tamalpais (AKA Mount Tam) with its 2,571 feet of elevation this icon is focal point for many a MTB and roadies alike. Tam offers several cycling specific features keeping an aesthetic balance.” – Cadence

If you need a wind stopping, water resistant shell… look no further.  In true Cadence fashion, this very stylish piece of apparel is not lacking any function.  Make sure to head over to The Collection to check out more photo’s, as well as how this jacket will serve you this winter and into the rainy spring.

Cheers!  Ride x Create

Element Emerald Collection

Emerald Collection

This weekend in Dallas I ran across this rad outdoor shop that carried Element’s Emerald Collection.  I had no clue Element branched out into this AMAZING gear.  It’s a mix of urban x outdoor style that I really dig.  If you’re in the Dallas area, make sure to check out the shop link above.  For all else, check out Element’s Emerald Collection via the web.  I promise you won’t be disappointed.

Think Outside

BoardMutatisMutandis

Throughout this journey of developing the Ride x Create spirit within myself, as well as, doing my best to inspire others to do the same; it’s a constant tug of war on what venture to act on vs. what to let go.  I run tons of ideas by Kyle and he supportively applauds or thumbs downses said idea.  Nevertheless, don’t hesitate to act on those random creative thoughts/urges to hit the road via bike or board.  Some of the best ideas come from that small spark to ride x create.

When I get into a creative bind, I’d say almost always, a ride will spark the thought that really captures what I’m trying to accomplish.  My head clears, and I take in the beauty that is nature to inspire the next project.

I hope all of your weekends were full of greatness.  Mine most definitely was.  Looking forward to hitting the ground running this week with creativity and miles dominated!  Cheers
