good problem

Take Five

noreply@blogger.com (-kw) — Thu, 07 Jan 2010 04:51:00 +0000

Had that xc ski day that everyone told me was going to happen soon. Great snow, proper kick stick, just-right layers, a good group of good guys, and three dogs.

Got in the Caravan when we finished and heard this song — this exact recording, actually. It'll probably turn out to be one of those times I associate forever with a piece of music, so I'm happy it's this good.

Thanks, Kris, Matt, Matt, and Butch. That was one of the times I've had.

seen this?

Freewheelin'

noreply@blogger.com (-kw) — Mon, 04 Jan 2010 02:43:00 +0000

Okay. My mind's officially blown by this guy's stuff. I clicked through to see more of Wolf Ruck's work (The man behind This Is Cross-Country! below this post) and found this two parter on off-road cycling: Freewheelin' (Circa '85) Holy crap.

Keep your eyes peeled for some pioneer-era set-ups, some drop bars, some possible Cunninghams, some Type IIs, some WTB, some bull moose bars, OG Specialized Ned footy, bearded dudes on OG Ross stuff, some possible early Slickrock trials, some Vaurnet's, some mustachios, a dude getting trials radical on an old GT cruiser with a bash guard, an early purveyor of bibs over jersey, beachy bench trials, what might be the first use ever of the messenger-in-traffic fliming angle, and more five-pound helmets than you can shake a stick at.

Enjoy both parts.
Part 2.

This Is Cross-Country!

noreply@blogger.com (-kw) — Mon, 04 Jan 2010 02:13:00 +0000

While struggling with technique these last few days, I started looking around for some visual examples and tips for cross country skiing and found this sweet-ish three parter: This Is Cross-Country! has all kinds of inspired film work, foley work, music, unapologetic 70s everything, and Sesame Street amazingness. The FobFather suggested I post for the enjoyment of all, and his wish is my command:

Enjoy all three parts.
Part 2.
Part 3.
