Here's a Brooks my dad bought for his road bike circa 1980. It's perfectly broken in. So comfortable. It's not staying on the Langster, but may find its way onto another project in to near future.
My band recorded a new single a few months ago at Cam Leopkey and Shaun Dealey at Prairie Recording. We are releasing it on Mike Braun's new Digital label, along with a few Remixes from some of our favorite DJ's/Musicians across Canada. It should be available for download soon! Here's a quick poster I made the other day that I thought I'd share.
As much as I love my Langster, I feel it draws too much unwanted attention. I may keep it one more season, but will be looking for something a bit more understated next year. I have always loved the Bianchi Pista. There's a few around town and always catch my eye. Something about those unpainted tubes with the subtle Bianchi lettering. The bike just LOOKS fast. Top it off with a Brooks and you're golden. Via Selectism.
I at one time considered myself a bit of a "Mod", whatever that meant to me at the time. I loved British Rock from the early 60's, Ben Sherman dress shirts, vintage Korean War Parkas, etc. This picture of Kate Moss caught my eye. Its by Craig McDean who is a British fashion photographer originally from Middlewich near Manchester, but now based in New York City.
