STUMPTOWN from Stumptown Coffee Roasters on Vimeo.

As all you cycling crazies know… coffee is a VERY big part of the culture.  Stumptown Coffee Roasters (suggested by Mr. SteedZ) has a rad story and are very passionate about what they do.  The Ride x Create vibe flows generously with their pursuit for creating the best cup of joe on the face of the planet!

I just placed my first order with the Rwanda Huye Mountain bean.  Can’t wait to get it in!  I have a feeling that my coffee world is about to change forever. Cheers!

I had a conversation with Brenton a few months back about his level of photography.  I mentioned that between him and SteedZ, my personal ability to capture a few rad shots here and there has dramatically increased.  I expressed my appreciation for helping me develop an eye for these thing, and told Brenton that he is one rad photographer… His swift response was “I’m not a photographer… I’m a designer with a camera!”  It put a smile on my face.

Fun little stories like this further show that creativity is not something that you can section off… it’s something that will influence your life and those around you whether its through your specific creative talent or not. 

Make sure to go and check out Mr. Little’s featured shots over at iGNANT!  The photo above is only one of many rad shots featured on iGNANT!  Oh, and don’t forget to follow BLittle on IG (@brenton_clarke).  Cheers!! Ride x Create

“Empire State Of Mind”

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
