WatchBODABODANYC: FRIGID FURY Last Thursday after work, I decided to check out the Cyclist Aprreciation Night & Free Open Bar event in the Lower East Side. I met some cool people in the NY messenger scene, and we talked shit about bikes, “the crackdown”, etc. while getting toasty off free booze on a cold winter night. Expect some more messenger bike/portraits soon .. but in the...

INSPIRATION: PROLLY'S PICS
I can tell you first hand that producing original blog content takes time, and doesn’t come easily. But if there’s anyone putting in work around the biekinterwebs, it’s Prolly. A couple of days ago, I tweeted something like “As much as I love my current job/career .. I wish I could get paid to ride my bike and take photos all day.” Minutes later, I received a...

SIX MORE WEEKS
Six weeks until spring. Six weeks until we no longer have to clean our bikes every other day. Six weeks until we no longer have to avoid enormous puddles on every corner of every street and avenue. Six weeks until the slush, snow, and salt disappear. Hang in there New York … six weeks.
Nice to look at, but not fun to walk through.
Snow boots - $35. Outlier Climber pants -...

35mm: Summer Snaps
So what happens when you’re bombarded with a new work schedule, combined with the coldest winter ever, and sporadic snowstorms? You browse through your Aperture library to find some photos that you might have overlooked. Expect some re-edits and flashback photos in the upcoming days/weeks due to the factors listed above.
Below are some shots from the summer from my ever-so-trusty...

OMAR'S CANNONS
The same day Tracko posted up this Cannondale “Tracko”, I received a response from the owner about the frame in regards to the original paint, and surprisingly enough — it is! I’ve looked through all the early 90’s Cannondale catalogs before, but and saw this paintjob scheme in any of them. Super nice, regardless, and I’ll definitely keeping an eye out for one...

LOOK! DON'S BACK!
Don finally got his damn Dura Ace quill stem that he’s been hunting for, and his bike is finally complete to his standards. He finally got his camera back, too .. 6 weeks later. Glad to see you back behind the lens broham.

WINTER WARRIORS WORLDWIDE
The east coast isn’t the only place suffering from the freezing cold (Currently -6°F in NYC) right now. Shout outs to all the delivery guys and messengers putting in work today. Stay warm spinners!

BEST OF iPHONE: WINTER EDITION
This winter has definitely one of the weirdest/coldest/worst ones that I’ve experienced here in a long, long, time. I hate how it has slowed down my productivity with being able to ride and shoot, and it’s not getting any warmer or better any time soon either. I don’t know about you guys, but I might pull a Prolly next winter and head somewhere warmer — though...

SUNDAY SNAPS
Since I had my newly acquired GorillaMobile attached to my camera strap for most of the day, I didn’t get to snap too many photos from Sunday’s stroll around Brooklyn. Here’s a few decent ones from the day. Click below for more photos.
Tried. Failed.

WatchNY8MM: #01 If Oldboy director Park Chan-Wook can make a short film using the iPhone 4, then the least we could do is make decent quality web edits with it. Enjoy, and check out the Vimeo page for this video for more details on the NY8MM series. More to come soon, hopefully.

SPOTLIGHT: PATRICK'S CIOCC
You might have seen this Ciocc over at Prolly’s last year, and hell, it probably broke your neck before as the owner rode by you around Brooklyn and Manhattan. I asked Patrick to bring this neon yellow machine out over the weekend so I could snap my own flicks of it. Maybe one day I’ll have the luxury of owning some classic Italian steel biciclette. One day ..

TUESDAY OFF: PROSPECT PARK
With another supposed storm heading our way, Chip and I decided last minute that it would be a good idea to get a quick ride in before the streets became unridable again. I knew Don and Krys were off from work, so they were down to meet us up at Prospect Park.
With the whole NYPD Crackdown on cyclists in Manhattan and Brooklyn, we made sure to ride “safe” during our laps, as cop...

SATURDAY SPINNIN'
Though it was in the low 20’s and the streets were still salty and wet, a handful of us decided to tough it out and head to Central Park for a lap. Roz was visiting from Boston for the weekend and joined us as well. Afterwards, we headed back downtown and hung out at one or two bike shops so everyone’s toes wouldn’t freeze off, then grabbed some grub at the usual Saturday spot.
