summer edit
May 27
As I sit here checking the internets constantly in search of a good deal on an Ibis Mojo, my desire for summer to be here and be out on the trails mountain biking has hit a frenzied level after watching this video from Steve Tenuto. Good Music + Fun Biking = Great Way To Spend Your Friday Afternoon.

Here’s a great video of something new and positive coming out of Oakland. Kids blinging out their bikes creatively.

that volcano in Iceland
May 14
Last night I had a dream that I was on a kayaking trip with friends and family (although we had to ski to the put in), and that somehow the headwaters of the river was near the top of this volcano. Of course this being a dream, it was fairly dramatic as we first survived an oncoming lahar and then some major earthquakes as we ran for our lives (somehow or another we ended up running through a suburb of fancy rich people’s houses, who apparently picked a bad location to build). Anyway, then I come upon this moody timelapse of the volcano in Iceland that’s causing so much havoc. It may not have a dramatic lahar moving down its flanks, but it sure is menacingly beautiful.

I’ll admit it now, I’m a fan of the film Amelie. It’s weird, it’s french, and it had a very cute girl in the starring role. Well the director Jean-Pierre Jeunet’s new work has at least the first to factors incorporated in it, and judging by the trailer I think I may have to make the trek to the theatre this summer.

Here’s a film that I’ve been waiting patiently for during the last 6 months. It follows a trip that Yvon Chouinard did to the tip of the South America that inspired to him to create a company like Patagonia with it’s focus on saving some of the last wild places in the world.
follow me
Mar 12
Color me excited, because I just found out that the guys behind my favorite bike film Seasons (and others such as The Collective and Roam) are about to come out with their latest film Follow me. Coming out in May on iTunes and DVD (where’s my Blu-Ray?!), the film looks amazing. I’m very tempted to check out their debut viewing in mid April at the Sea Otter classic down in Monterey… VERY tempted.

that was 2009
Mar 11
Now that the Oscars have come and gone, everyone is looking back at the year that was 2009. In a lot of ways 2009 was a hard year for a lot of people, and for a lot of us we didn’t get out to the movies as much as we would have liked. It is for these people that I present to you this 7 minute look at the films that came out last year, and I guarantee that after viewing it you’ll be adding some to you Netflix queue. It’s a roller-coaster of emotion if you’ve seen many of the movies (much like listening to a Girl Talk album), and overall it gives a pretty awesome sense of film’s ability to allow us to escape to different worlds.
