Hetchins!





































How I love these bikes! The most insanely elegant frames I've ever seen.

My kind of bicycle race


This shit is bananas! Single speed, upright, no brakes, tiny tiny track. I want to try this.

What is wrong with people?

People who aggressively honk at me while I'm signalling to turn on my bike make me want to murder. The funny thing is they ran from me, on my bicycle, when I turned to confront them. Next time they're getting a U-lock through the windshield.

I love Raleighs



There is something about taking a relatively mediocre old bicycle and making it look like something way fancier that it is. I try this repeatedly with not nearly as much success as this person. The stamped Heron chainwheel and cottered cranks lead me to believe this was probably a Raleigh Sports or other lower end model. The Butchered Brooks, the ultra-retro handlebars, the High flange hubs...all the way down to the stainless steel water bottle. It's a perfect build. Check out the rest of the pics and details here.
