PEDALER • CLOTHING

Yesterday was the last day and closing ceremony of the seven day 545 mile Aids Life Cycle Ride from San Francisco to Los Angeles. A friend of mine was on the ride, so we came to support her and the cause. Next year Pedaler Clothing will be participating in the ride and raising some $$$ for the cause (hopefully we’ll be able to sponsor something too). This year 10.5 million dollars was raised to “help the beneficiaries and continue to provide the critical services and education needed to meet the growing needs of our community.”  The closing ceremony was both touching and inspiring. Many thanks to all the riders and crew!  Here are a few pics.. enjoy…

A bike ho!

I think Boise is a gem of a town filled with friendly interesting artsie people that love their bicycles. This was my second time to Boise, once to visit my friend and business partner Virginia and this time to get tattoed by Darcy Nutt of Chalice Tattoo.

I should have spent more time taking bike pics but I was busy inflicting pain on myself for the sake of art and addiction. However I did get a few lame shots. It should be noted that Boise is a very progressive cycling town and the home state of the “idaho stop law” which allows cyclists to yield at stop signs instead of requiring them to stop. This legislation is serving as a model for states such as Oregon, California and Montana to change their complete stop bike laws to the yield instead of stop idaho law.

I highly recommend a visit to Boise both for it’s bicycle culture and great tattoos!
