Little bit of candy from Darkdaze

Not sure if the photo credit is Guerilla or KevinMason

Fall into the Gash

Not sure what they were thinking with this rebrand. Not that the original was particularly strong but this is nasty!

L'Eroica 2010


L'Eroica report / DAY 1 / Gaiole In Chianti - The Village gets ready from Le Coq Sportif on Vimeo.

L'Eroica report / DAY 2 / Flea Market & Bikes distribution from Le Coq Sportif on Vimeo.

L'Eroica report / DAY 3 / The Race from Le Coq Sportif on Vimeo.

Gavin from spinwell has just returned from l'Eroica. These three videos by LeCoqSportif document the atmosphere around the event really nicely. Spotted Tom Cutting's Colnago with a bottle of red strapped to it and too many beautiful french/italian girls working for LeCoqSportif. Looked like a blast!

Keep an eye on the spinwell blog for a full photo report soon...

Bar Raised Again


WRAHW Welcomes Tom Lamarche from WRAHW on Vimeo.

Not much FGFS up on here but this one is fucked. Tom LaMarches welcome to Wrahw video is madness right through. The drop at the start and gap at the end have gotta be watched!

Liam from Hip just uploaded a few more shots from Thursday. I managed to miss out a few very important people from the thankyou list too, so here goes: Adidas • 14BikeCo • Continental • ReStrap • Cantgoslo • Nation of Shopkeepers

Fast Friday Build

I've slept on this for a while, mainly because my web access has been pretty sporadic until today.

This frame, developed by Condor and Cadence will be awarded to the first place in todays Fast Friday (Sunday?) World Final in SF. I've always been a fan of Condor and this build doesn't disappoint! I particularly like the BB and fork crown detailing.

14BikeCo have launched a beta version of the custom ride site - give it a try here

DFL CX

Mash posted some amazing shots from the DFL CX race. The dustbowl looks crazy. Photos: Bicigirl

Nother set of pics up at FixFixFix - this one featuring Kelly modelling the new RYD garms.

New Feather Build

Ricky just uploaded some shots of his latest build to FeatherCycles. I posted the headtube from this earlier in the week but this is well worth a closer look...

4TN launch Alleycat

Thursday night saw the launch of of 14bikeCo's 4TN brand at Hip in Leeds.

To mark the event, we organised a short, fast alleycat around Leeds with checkpoints at a number of pubs. The turnout was awesome: loads of familiar faces and a number of new ones.

The race started pretty fast with Liverpool trick rider Chicken taking an initial lead. Check out the load/fast/scouse helmet cam footage below for his view on the race. (And yeah, you have grown).

Top five placings:
1. Ben Treanor (LSF)
2. Toby (Alan?) Leeds
3. Marek (LSF)
4. Nate (Restrap/BFD)
5. Ned (LSF)

Just a brief report until I have more pictures to show but a huge thanks has to go out to: All the 14bikeCo crew (Odge,Ted, Keith, John and the guy from Mission workshop - Beer brain has deleted your name!) Hip and the free pre race bar and most importantly all the riders that made the effort to get out and race - Liverpool and Manc lads who travelled, all the girls that showed face and got their race on and of course the LSF crew.
