More from BrevM

Here are the prototypes for the new BrevM pedals. I like where they're going with these and I can't wait to try them out. Traction on track pedals? PERFECT

Check them out at BrevM's website. Seems to be a great up and coming company!

TWO WEEKS!

Come one, come all! BIKE NITE, is going to be super fun. If you are in town, you should definitely show up! After the Revival/London to Paris premier, I'm more stoked than ever on this event. COME OUT SO WE CAN MAKE IT A REGULAR THING!

Winter Riding...

If you're like me, the cold really gets to you this time of year when you're on your bike. And though it unfortunately isn't in the realm of cycling, I couldn't get by this winter without my AirBlaster Ninja suit to keep me toasty when I'm riding around town. It's a nice warm almost full body base layer that you should definitely look into.

Check them out at Airblaster's web site. Or at snowboard shops all around.

It's premier time!

Come out to this on the 11th. It's guaranteed to be super fun. Plus we'll be there so what more reason do you need? So grab your bike and pedal out, son!

New addition to Brenton Salo's family

Here's a peek at Brenton Salo's brand spankin' new Dodici frame. I love seeing what Jacopo's putting out! I can't wait to see this build finished. Also coming soon is Dodici's very first trick bike being built for our friend Zach R.

Great things are on their way!

Ok so we're working on a bike night at Mt. Tabor Theater, here in Portland. It's going to be a monthly event, which I'm stoked on. We'll have bike video screenings, music, food and drinks. Plus just a great time, that hopefully develops Portland's bike community further. We've got the venue on lock down and pretty much everything except sponsors. I've been talking with Jeff from All-City, and it looks like we'll have them for a sponsor in the months to come. And I'm working on getting some good companies to get in on this so that we can give people some dope gear in the process. If you have some hookups or something, let me know so we can make this even super fun for everyone.

Also, I'm working on my own personal baby... Top Secret. It will be a series of trick competitions, alley cat races, and just plain fun events. Due to my paranoid mindset, and a twisted sense of humor, the races will rely less on advertising and more on networking. If it works out as well as it does in my head, this is how it will work... A series of 3 events. I'm in the process of building a website for Top Secret, when that website is up, you will join a mailing list. When the race approaches, you'll be contacted with a time and location, you tell your friends about it and bring ONE entry fee for all of the events (provided you're participating) and in order to participate you'll have to bring your spoke card to each event. It should be super fun and hopefully it'll keep the cops off your backs. Cause nobody likes bike tickets. Keep in mind, I'm still in the planning stages but it sounds rad, right? Also lining up sponsors for that as well.

I'm trying to finally get VELOSHIP on the map so that we can do something for the community. Though, I'm a dreamer and my dreams are often a little larger than life.

I'm working on getting some product. Namely, a Milwaukee Bruiser or an All-City Dropout. I'd like to start reviewing things. So if you're listening, All-City and Milwaukee, I ride a 56(ish) in these bikes. (Actually, I did talk to Jeff about getting my hands on a Dropout... We'll see how successful I am)

Keep VELOSHIPPING,
