Not only I have lost my second mother this week….
I have also lost another hero Jan Derksen (dutch), king of the ‘Sur place’.
RIP jan!

Will always love you mom!

After reading this article from The Bicycle Story. I was eager to find more pictures from Lewis Hine. It wasn’t that hard to fiend, but damn there are fuccing hundreds of pictures….
So I took a couple of them which you can view here.

Or go to this or this site and see them all!

Well like Votske said in a post before this one, Vince and I told you guys that fixed gear mountain biking is gonna be the next BIG thing. It’s done for years, mostly with brakes. It was still a niche kind of thing but that’s gonna change!

Through Zlog!

Found on ZLOG.

Thanks to Pristine, Fishmeister and Mike from MASH, I had a lovely day racing through Amsterdam on the busiest day of the Sail 2010 event! I even talked Danish delight Josi into racing with me, the girl landed less than 24h before the race in Amsterdam and didn’t know her way around town, but the girl rocked, she can race and dodge tourists like a pro!
I’m still not used to going to these kind of events without drinking before, in and after the race… But hey, I can have fun without alcohol! Can I?

Found on Prolly.

I found this great device on Prolly. No more need for a lighter or some table or other hard edge to open your beer, right now you can just open it with the Road Popper!

The Road Popper is a bike-mounted bottle opener that we developed for our own use and decided afterward to share. We designed it to fasten discreetly to the rails on the underside of the saddle to help keep your bike looking crisp. So far, it’s worked on all the bottle caps we’ve tried it on. Material options are bronze infused stainless steel. Finish options are plain (on the right in the photograph), matte gold, glossy gold, matte antique bronze, and glossy antique bronze. The Road Popper is not intended for alcoholic beverages. Chromoly does not condone cycling while under the influence of alcohol.

You can find more info about the Road Popper right here.
