    Songs for the Apocalypse: The Wake-Up Bomb

    REM could well stand for resplendent en masse as they, like the rest of us, would “rather be anywhere, doing anything” as they drop a seriously tight (and sartorial) Wake-Up Bomb back in ’95.

  • The Analog Kids

    The Analog Kids

    Clem Shovel is a good guy. Quiet, friendly, unassuming, and a hell of a bike rider, I first met him on my first trip to the Classics in 2012 when he drove the support car, handed out bidons (he’s French after all, no bottles there) and used brute force and a big hammer to try…

    Opening Weekend from the Other Side

    Finally, racing season has started. Sure, we’ve been watching the hot, empty roads of the Middle East and Australia, but when Opening Weekend in Flanders rolls around we know that the good stuff is here. The next six or so weeks is all about the wind, the rain and the cobbles, with fingers crossed for…

    Sonic Truth at the Sugar Cane 200

    A beautifully shot video that makes you want to get up at the crack of dawn and ride your bike a really long way on gravel. Until the second half’s soundtrack kicks in and you want to gouge your own ears out. I find playing this over the vid helps…

    Bombtrack at a CX World Cup

    Like the title says, Bombtrack ‘crosser Gosse van der Meer took to the mud at the Bern World Cup and mixed it up with the big boys. This little film is a great insight into life mid-pack out of a van rather than up front and a giant bus.

  • No Stone Unturned

    No Stone Unturned

    Our old friend, ex-Wellingtonian/German/Scotsman Markus Stitz is off on another crazy adventure, preparing for the Silk Road Mountain race by taking a little pedal around Kyrgyzstan. But what are those things on the back of your bike, Markus? Gears? The shame.   While I was very keen to document my journey, I wanted any photography…

    Friday Fugazi: Mayhem At The Morrow

    This is a specially personal FF for me. Watching this epic video shot by an old friend brings back the taste of warm VB, the dry mouth and glorious lack of oxygen from a smoke-filled room, salty sticky bodies sliding against each other, the crush of the throng losing their shit yet at the same…
