LeedsLeedsLeeds

Ian from Dalikfodda on Leeds Streets. Pretty mad to see the city transformed. I'll be uploading a video later of some alternative snow sport....

Merry Fixmas and a Happy New Gear!

Thanks to all the blog readers, contributors and and all the sites I regularly pilfer for posts. Its been a good year for riding in Leeds - Said hello to loads of new riders and waved goodbye to some good mates and familiar faces. A couple of things in the pipeline already for 2010 - Max and I are working on a photo competition concept and eyes peeled for a potential indoor event in february...

Le Coq Sportif

Spotted this premium collection by Le Coq Sportif over at MilanoFixed. Nice looking, bike inspired garms. Full photo set here.

Was stoked on Tyler's style when I saw him in the Revival - this just creates new boundaries for all you trick riders out there...

Rollapaluza Winter league - Round One

I popped over to the Rollapaluza last night in Clerkenwell and tried my luck on the rollers!
I never thoughts that it would be as knackering as it was, and had to get some fresh air after I had a go as I could feel my recent burgerking possibly making a surprise appearance.

2012 bmx posters

Just read about these posters over at Tracko this morning. A real nice idea by Music design in Manchester for a collection by Grafik magazine to celebrate the 2012 olympics and a nod to all the amazing design that has accompanied some of the events in the past.


"We were asked to design a poster for BMX, which was a stroke of genius/fate because Manchester is the home of British Cycling and Team GB. We enlisted the help of 3 young members of Manchester BMX Club and their coach Sam Foakes (former World No.1 Flatland BMX Champion) who helped us 'make the posters'. It's them on the bikes in the film...not us...we'd have fallen off!

We then persuaded Olympic 2010 BMX hopeful (and Manchester based) Shanaze Reade to sign 100 of them. All proceeds going to the British Paralympic Fund and the charity Right To Play."

Images and text from BikeType, which is well worth a look- The poster, along with 29 others is available to buy here.
