Oregon Manifest
Pretty cool, kind of want to go check it out. Any takers?
Oregon Manifest
Details:
WE’RE LOOKING FOR THE ULTIMATE UTILITY BIKE FOR MODERN LIVING!
The Oregon Manifest Constructor’s Design Challenge is a one-of-a-kind design/build competition, in which some of the country’s best custom bike craftsman and select student teams vie to create the ultimate modern utility bike.
OUR MISSION IS THREEFOLD
FIRST, to inspire and foster real design innovation around a bike that recognizes the needs of modern living. SECOND, to celebrate and champion the resurgence of American craft—bicycle craft in particular. THIRD, to show riders and enthusiasts that a well-crafted bicycle isn’t just for sport and recreation, but can also be a tool integrating seamlessly into everyday life.
WHY A UTILITY BIKE?
The two-wheeled revolution won’t come on the saddle of a race bike or a specialty bike. The utility bike is the transportation mode of the future for millions of Americans who want to live healthier, more sustainable lives, but don’t think of themselves as “cyclists.” The key to realizing this future is thoughtful, innovative bike design that fills multiple needs and fits into their lives.

Lord of Griffith lll: Sponsor Package: Sheila Moon
This year I'm really trying to push the "Lady of Griffith' side of the race. I just got the Sheila Moon Prize package.
They really broke bread for you ladies. Almost $600 dollars worth of cycling gear is up for grabs for the females that race!
You got over two months to train and get ready for the epicness that is "The Lord of Griffith lll"...
Big thanks to Sheila Moon.

Fixation the Movie
Fixation is hitting the Film Festival Circuit. I can't wait to see it on the big screen. It was a blast filming for it,
and I'm continuing to help spread the word. There are five main riders profiled in the Film, so
leading up to it's screening, I'll be interviewing each rider on their experience while filming the movie.
Along with the Director and drivers who filmed us. Keep your eyes here for that. We also be working out a big race
to celebrate the Los Angeles Screening... Stoked!
