Kyle x Brenton do Pikes Peak
Yup… they sure did. Hiked all over that damn mountain. I wish I was in attendance.
FOLLY Fun Facts // Pikes Peak:
Originally named “El Capitán” by Spanish settlers and later renamed Pikes Peak by Zebulon Pike Jr. Good ol’ Zebulon was an explorer of sorts and essentially said… “This is Merica and we don’t need no mountain named ‘the captain’!” Although Zeb changed the name after himself… the Arapaho Indian’s said “yeah… whatevs”, and preceded to call the mountain “heey-otoyoo” (that’s Arapaho for “long mountain”).
Heey-otoyoo stands tall at 14,115 feet and is one of Colorado’s 54 “fourteeners”.

Being that Kyle is some 6’5″ or so… he stands over most normal folk. You could imagine how tall he felt in this environment.

Cinelli-BOOTLEG // Tour d’Afrique 2013 with the “Hobo”

Cinelli BOOTLEG Tour d’Afrique 2013 – Hobo from CINELLI-BOOTLEG on Vimeo.
Tell me you’re not pumped to take a cross country ride after watching this! My palms are sweaty with excitement!
“Hobo is a totally new steel frame bicycle, engineered and equipped for off-road rides on long distances, already proving itself along the adventurous 12.000 kilometres of the 2013 Tour d’Afrique. TdA is a world renowned endurance-race, now in its 11th edition. What better way for the hobo to announce itself to the world than with 3 distinguished Cinelli riders blazing across the African terrain.
Chas Christiansen, 100% pure San Francisco and one of the top riders of the Cinelli Mash Team, an iconic figure of the fixed-gear culture, always on the highest steps of Criteriums, Alleycats and Cyclo-Cross Single-Speed races podiums.
Lucas Brunelle, native of Boston, is an established filmmaker who introduced a unique first-person filming technique in cycling races thanks to his great riding skills and the innovative helmet-integrated camera-system. Lucas is responsible for filming and reporting the most extreme race contests all over the globe for more than ten years.
Dario Toso couldn’t miss out, designer and explorer of the contemporary and long-time ambassador of the ‘Bootleg State of Mind’.”
“Tour d’Afrique 2013 ended 1 month ago. I took part at the final leg from Windhoek to Cape Town with Chas Christiansen and Lucas Brunelle. It was the perfect scenery for testing the Cinelli Hobo prototype. We reached the TdA Group in Windhoek and rode with them along 1700 km of dirt, sand, wind and road. Definitely one of the best experiences of my life!” – Dario Toso
Find out more about this rad Hobo creation, team and ride over at Cinelli BOOTLEG! I promise you won’t be disappointed.

“While digging through the Poler archives we discovered this 1980’s Poler instructional video. Sit back and watch as Dr. Dan gives you a tour of the Poler Two Man Tent and Mystic Tarpent.” – Poler (via TW @polerstuff)

The Folly Presidents
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!
