Art by Krys Blakemore
You want some inspiration… here you go! Rad art from Krys Blakemore!
If you remember correctly, we mentioned Krys early last year when 718 Cyclery put out an invite to the cycling community to help her financially as she recovered from a horrible wreck. Her “Zombie robot leg” as she refers to it, seems to be moving on the up and up. Nevertheless, I’m sure she has a long road ahead of her.
Make sure to check out her rad site with mondo “illustration and other things”. Also don’t be shy of her Instagram (@krysblakemore) for an inside look at art in progress.
Thanks for the inspiration Krys! I hope all is well. Ride x Create

LET — GO — ON from Bikeminimalism. on Vimeo.
“We had the pleasure of working with KRNKY on a quick and dirty film shot during the last days of this summer. The temperatures were dropping to somewhere around +5C° but our masked rider soldiered on nevertheless. Let this serve as a reminder to LET GO of the summers gone. And GO ON, ride into the new year. We truly hope you people out there enjoy this as much as we do.” – Bikeminimalism
This is very rad, motivating, and introspective. Great work Bikeminimalism! Really dig this.
Happy Friday Folly friends! I hope this weekend serves you well. Good food, drink and friends always does my heart good. I hope to have a bit of all of that, along with inspiration of a new project and miles dominated on the road. Ride x Create

2013
We are Presidents
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 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
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!

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.
