DWP 2014: The Athletic from Design Week Portland on Vimeo.

This is inspiring on all levels.

I’ve seen Shinola bicycle, watch, and leather goods around throughout my travels. This is the first time I’ve looked into their company and products a little bit closer. Although I’ve never owned or used any of their products they seem to be right on track for bringing hand crafted American made goods back to American’s.

Welcome to Detroit from Shinola on Vimeo.

Hand built steel frames – Waterford, WI from Shinola on Vimeo.

Head over to Shinola and check out more on what makes them tick. I promise you’ll be glad you did.

Really diggin’ this new Black Camo series from Mission Workshop.

“Constructed using MultiCam-black Cordura and equipped with black-metal hardware throughout. These messenger bags feature a weatherproof roll top main compartment which can be used in either the “roll top” mode, or in the traditional “flap down” configuration.

Mission Workshop roll top messenger bags feature quick-access outboard pockets, internal zippered pockets, custom aluminum strap hardware, and detachable cross-chest stabilizer. Large zippered pocket fits most 15’’ laptops and any tablet. Larger laptops and devices easily fit in the main cargo compartment.

Made in the USA with a lifetime warranty.”

Go to Mission Workshop and check these bad boys out for yourself. I promise you won’t be disappointed.

This looks like a super solid shred sled!

“The Parser is one of those bikes where you won’t need to change or upgrade anything, and it is tough enough to last a lifetime.”

Go to Fairdale and check out more history on the Parser from 2010 to today. Jah blessed!

“Inspired by the Alpine Hikers’ tradition of decorating a walking stick with trail medallions, Swift brings you the adventure-seeker bicycle badge!”

I love this idea! This gets the FOLLY Seal of Awesome hands down!

Go to Swift Industries and check out more.

I’ve loved watching Krys create rad illustration. I hope you have to. Her new site is the bees knees.

This photo/write up got me pumped!

Go to The 5th Floor and check out other rad shots on this 112 mile ride.

I heart Brother Cycles and Matt Blease. When they come together on tees like this I get even more pumped.

Go nab your Cycle Club T-Shirt over at Brother Cycles shop.

Yup… this is absolutely stunning. Put a solid mountain bike in the hands of Danny and this is what happens. I love it!

This is the last week to pre-order your FOLLY x BRYANT FaTRoB. I’ve been riding all over (and by all over I’m not exaggerating) the land on this solid hand build machine!

I talked with Joshua recently and expressed how much fun I’m really having on our FaTRoB. It has been the most pleasurable experience I’ve had on two wheels since I started riding. It’s so versatile and can be ridden on almost all terrain.

If you are teetering on picking up the special edition FOLLY x BRYANT FaTRoB I recommend you do so by Sunday. Although I’m partial to how amazing this ride is, I don’t think you’ll be able to ride yours without a constant smile on your face.

I hope whatever bicycle you choose to ride brings you the same joy day in, day out. Cheers!
