These unpublished images of Ryan Giese aka Geez were originally part of a project with my friends from ILOVEBICYCLESNYC that was never completed. Almost makes me miss the chaos that is riding through NYC via track bike.

GEEZ IN MIDTOWN
As I was browsing my photo archives, I came across a project from 2010 that I never had a chance to display. The above image is one of the many from the photoset that I will be posting tomorrow. Can’t wait to share them with you.

PHOTOSET: #RGR VIA @M_DEMARTINO
One of my favorite aspects of social media (Instagram, in particular) is the ability to follow an event - in the moment, from perspectives and through eyes of strangers that you might have never been able to witness previously.

I followed the #RGR take closely as the Rapha Gentlemen’s Race was underway this past weekend, and truly enjoyed the images by Matt DeMartino. He was kind enough to share them, along with some words.

“Though I grew up in Northern New Jersey, I had never experienced much of the state by bike, picking up the sport only after moving to Georgia after a brief stint in New York. While the 130 mile ride, replete with gravel and soaring with 10,000 feet of vertical elevation gain, was difficult, testing the gamut of bike handling prowess, mental certitude, and the core of teamwork, I was astounded by the beauty of the landscapes we traveled through.”

MFS + GIRO D’ITALIA 2013
So here’s the thing with sports photography for me - pro cycling, in particular. There’s the “default” or “stock” images that you expect to see throughout bike races, and then there’s Manual for Speed. MFS continues to be successful with showing the viewers and fans the parts and people of the race that we don’t necessarily expect, yet can learn to appreciate, and I love them for that.

I saw James briefly a few weeks back wearing this coat, and had no idea who/what created such a piece. Luckily, he explains it to us in detail and wears it well here.

jamesnord:

Rapha teamed up with Raeburn to create a new city riding jacket made from repurposed milatary parachutes which have been deconstructed and reconstructed integrating the original seams. I have been living in this jacket on and off the bike for weeks and can’t recommend it enough. It’s Weird enough to make people look twice, but technical enough to ensure it does it’s intended job. They will go on sale on Friday and they won’t last long. There are only 300 of each color and less than 1,000 worldwide.

WEDNESDAY IS HILL DAY
Earlier this week, we took the back roads to Nyack for the first time in a few months. Phil had a great day and destroyed all the big climbs of the day, not to mention pulling us the entire way home on 9W.

Holy crap this Allez is bangin. Happy Friday.

SOLO MISSION: BEAR AND BACK
Note to self: 100+ mile rides are highly more enjoyable in good company. Longest solo ride to date. Won’t do that again for a while.

TYLER’S CLEAN CAAD
My buddy Tyler recently blasted and polished his fairly new CAAD 10, and made it look cleaner that it already was to begin with. I’m a fan.

PHOTOSET: RED HOOK CRIT QUALIFIERS
This was the first year that the Red Hook Crit hosted a qualifying round to determine the 100 racers who would participate in the race. It was a total blast watching the qualifying groups both in person, as well as viewing the live updates via the RHC app. Check out the rest of the photos from the Qualifiers on the FB Fan Page.

DRIVESIDE: DON’S FIREFLY
The homie Don’s first road bike was a custom Yamaguchi. He then decided it was not balleur enough, so he sold it and got this amazing Firefly built up. So, so good.
