These guys!  They are doing it right on every level.  Loose Nuts Cycles is one of those shops you walk into and feel like you’re already a part of the family.  The shop if filled with very rad wall hung rides that range from brand spanking new, to past builds that have been ridden well and now proudly on display for your viewing pleasure.  The sense of history, miles ridden, and stories to tell is oozing in this place!

I made a comment on Chris Tavel’s (shop owner) Salsa Warbird build via IG (@loosenutscycles) and a couple weeks later… here I am!  Chris and wife Laura hosted me in their home over the weekend with the best of accommodations, whisky, good home cooked food and great conversation!

Last weekend turned out to be a perfect time to visit. The Batdorf & Bronson Velodrome Cup went down Saturday night. A rad massive street closing called Atlanta Streets Alive was on Sunday! Bikes, boards and beers where flying everywhere.  Definitely my type of events all weekend long! Not to mention I got to hook up with Cogzilla Attacks and TwoToneATL!  Those guys are great!

If you are even remotely close to the Atlanta area, Loose Nuts Cycles is a must go to!  I promise if you bring beer you will be treated like a king (or queen).  High fives will be given, tears of joy will be had!

The photos below are my take of the Loose Nuts shop and the weekend’s events.  I hope you enjoy. Oh, and check out our Instagram for other sneak peaks of the weekend’s happenins!  Cheers

And, this about sums it up!

RIDE x CREATE

This is going to be so good! Don’t have plans tomorrow night… Now you do!  Go race/support this!

“#ChromeOne is headed to LA for the final Wolfpack Hustle 6th St. Drag Race for a night of one-on-one single speed sprints across the 6th Street Bridge.  One man and onewoman will take home the last sets of WPH dog tags, the Chrome #CovetedJersey, and a special Citizen bag.  Plus, after all the scores for the United Title Race Series are tallied up, custom Chrome x WPH Barage bags will be awarded to the top two men and women.” – Chrome 

Go to Wolfpack Hustle to find out more info.

As I’m sure you’ve noticed, most of my rides are solo.  This isn’t for any specific reason. I love riding with folks; it pushes me to ride faster, longer. But, I also really enjoy riding by myself.  No set pace. Maybe I have a destination in mind, maybe not. Stop when you want and take photos of something that caught your eye, etc.  I dig the freedom of it.

Yup… this is muy muy bueno!  So much so, that you should attend!  If you’re in the area you will attend this! I hope. Because it will be cool. And I’m sure you wouldn’t want to miss out. It will be gnar. Promise…
