Chrome



One of my new hobbies (not too new actually, but is quickly becoming one of my favorite activities) is biking. To be more specific, I am really into single speed bikes. Chrome is the maker of probably the most popular messenger bags ever. So when I came to sf, I thought I would try to check out their main shop-I was not disappointed. They were having a little party for . . . No appearent reason-how cool is that?!?

Nothing like a little sushi after a good day of skating Menlo Park.

Jimmy-frontside air.

Just like the good old days

Back in San Francisco skating with Jimmy - always fun!

Never too old to do what you love

I ran across this interview with Bryce Kanights, an 80's pro skateboarder and now skate photographer and the man behind www.skatedaily.net, a few weeks ago. It is really great. The recently updated it with episode 4 and 5, but episode 2 is really cool. It just reminded me that it just because you are older, you don't have to stop doing what you love. Not to mention, this episode "resembles" me - an old skateboarder, who is a graphic designer and is also a skate photographer.

enjoy!

Test Drive - Hyundai Genesis Coupe


Yesterday, Hyundai had a small track set up for test driving their new sports car, the Genesis Coupe. If you get a chance to test drive one of these puppies, I suggest either of the V6 models - they are pretty nice. Let me just say, Hyundai has come a long way! Can anyone say "mid-life crisis"!
