The Radavist // Speedvagen Urban Racer

Jesse on VanillaI’m speechless…

The design of the Vanilla Workshop Urban Racer is one for the record books. Although I most likely will never be able to afford such a clean beautiful fun machine like the UR… I can live vicariously through John Watson and his rad imagery.

Go to The Radavist and check out all the details on the Urban Racer. In. LOVE!My Speedvagen Urban Racer

More CREMA Please!

imageI’m blown away! As I’ve pursued #coffeeoutside caffeinated drank sippin’ goodness there is one key element in going from a good morning to a great morning… The Bean!

I’ve visited Nashville, TN dozens of times and even had CREMA coffee before… for some reason this experience stood out more than others. With that said, it has been about a year or so since my last visit to CREMA and this was a great one.  I decided to nab their Ethiopian Guji Natural via pour over. Couldn’t have made a better decision after coming out of the woods from a bro camp/exploration session you’ll read about below.

This particular coffee was roasted not but 3 days prior to my purchase; with taste notes of strawberry sherbet, cinnamon, and lemon zest… I was in heaven!

If you’re in the Nashville, TN area you should make it a point to go check out CREMA. It would be a shame not to. If you would like to experience the joy I’ve had from afar then head over to CREMA via the web and order some beans. Cheers! imageimageimage

The Power of B Squad

Processed with VSCOcam with c9 preset“I’m sick of being on B Squad.

Listen, you may be on B Squad, but you’re the B Squad Leader!”

Yup… this weekend was one for the books (or blogs rather). When we three get together fairy dust falls from the sky, the Narnian pathways open there gates, and we live a lifetime of excellence where time stands still, the Angels blow their horns, birds land on our shoulders, and we whistle a happy tune through the rainbow field of butter cups and dandy lions to the land of Excalibur and beyond.

Here is a photo recap starting and finishing in Nashville, TN. I hope you enjoy.

Make sure to go check out Kyle Steed‘s and Brenton Little‘s IG for other rad shots from this bro get away sesh.
