SkidCity
New Skids On The Block from Hamish Hamilton on Vimeo.
Looks like a pretty fun event. Top Five in Pentapista skids woulda killed it.
SuperD!
Leeds/Paris May09 from donnacha carroll on Vimeo.
More visual goodness from your favourite Irish cameraman. Even a small clip of Ady Hogan in there and check out the wall ride about 2.50. fucked.
Fixie Inc. 2010
Just saw this photo of the new 2010 blackjack. Some good attention to detail and a nice saddle are a good start - handlebars are pretty tasteful too, if a little weird. Some of the other new models are using beltdrive technology (which I wouldn't trust for shit) which seems to be a trend in the sensible ss commute bike. More info and pics over at road.cc
Adidas OT range.
Adidas took on some of the CrankArmSteady crew to model some new cycle inspired originals range. I'm diggin those blue samba and the world championship colourway windcheater is cool - also some mad coloured superstars witk keirin numbering and reflective canvas kicks.

Rapha inside story...
Inside stories is a book by Rapha about the labels in their products. Looks like a pretty nice buy for a tenner. Also spotted the Rouler box set on the site which is alot more expensive but looks like a beauty.

'84 Vivalo Special
Spotted this one over on PedalRoom. Like the minimal colourway and saddle flair - good work Luther!

Starfeckers!
Stoked on the clear saddle - superminimal - still not sure if I'd like a starfuckers frame but this has some real nice touches.

Good shit
My Summer Shit from chris clappe on Vimeo.
Nice lookin vid - some nice smooth shots. via Prolly (again!)
New Bowery release...
Read over at Prollys blog about the release of the Bowery Tr(a/i)ck frame. First glimpse aint too bad - nice minimal colourway and decals and a good looking geometry buuuuuuut, its alloy, which seems a little silly for a trick frame - surely they woulda built BMXs out of it otherwise?
There are some other plus and negative points - go read Prolly's review and form your own opinion...
Where are you go trailer
Saw this on the AustinTwo Wheels BFF Pre/Review (?) Pretty crazy stuff. Tour of Africa - mad dirt roads and so hot but definitely looks to be a life changing experience. I'm still wondering why one guy chose a tall bike though!

SuperFancy...
Real pretty stuff from SuperFancy. Got an email from Soren, letting me know about the top - Death by Fixie shirt, but I'm sold on loads of the prints...
Go check em out at the link above.

Vans Chukka Del Barco LX
Just saw these badboys over at Flatspot. 140 notes is heavy but I reckon they'll sell as long as this nautique vibe is still big...
Farewell mon ami
Warren, the winner of Leeds first Alleycat (top picture), and all round good dude, leaves Leeds tomorrow for sunnier shores. He's going travelling the world with his missus and given his love of the ocean (or namely, surfing) I don't think we'll see him for a while.
I've set him up a blog but his aversion to all things electronic could signal a long wait before we see any pics - I'll keep y'all posted.
Have a good one mate - you really will be missed in Leeds! First stop SF - DO A SKID!!!
Another one for the reading list...
Porter Chain
Spotted over at BarrieBloor, this previous best seller is looking pretty good. Available in a number of colours - I'm a sucker for the minimal classic branding.
