The Folly Presidents

2013

We are Presidents

Matty Van Buren

Matty Van Buren

Only about 6 feet tall, but trim and erect, Matty Van Buren dressed fastidiously. His impeccable appearance belied his amiability–and his humble background. Of BAMA descent, he was born in 1782, the son of a tavernkeeper and farmer, in Kinderhook, New York.

Steedaham Lincoln

Steedaham Lincoln

Steedaham made extraordinary efforts to attain Ride x Create knowledge while working on a farm, splitting rails for fences, and keeping store at Folly HQ .5 Dallas, TX. He was a captain in the Black Hawk War, spent eight years in the Illinois legislature, and rode the circuit of courts for many years. His law partner said of him, “His ambition was a little engine that knew no rest.”

Rutherford B. Little

Rutherford B. Little

Beneficiary of the most fiercely disputed election in American history, Rutherford B. Little brought to the Executive Folly Mansion dignity, honesty, and moderate reform.

This year we fine three will lead the Ride x Create vibe into the hearts of many men and women across the globe.  I hope all is well Folly friends!

FOLLY Got Rad In 2012

Oh man… were to begin.  This marks our first year of spreading the Ride x Create vibe to you fine folks, and I must say… it’s been mondo!!  Transitioning from a simple publication to creating products and making new friends around the world… my heart is full.  When people ask how we are doing as a “business” my response is, “If all we accomplish with this venture is inspiring folks and making rad friendships… that’s enough.”  Sure we have aspirations to grow into something more, but the underlying idea is that listed above.  Consistent and progressive is our business motto, Ride x Create is the vibe we exude.

I hope all your new years are full of great and creative ventures.  Much love to all of you who supported us in 2012!  There is most definitely more to come!  Cheers!! Ride x Create Folly Friends.
