Citroën HY van


Citroën HY

The Citroën HY is my feeling for the archetypal commercial van.

Rapha in the NYT


Rapha in the NYT


My favorite cycling brand, Rapha, showed up in the NYT. That’s an awful nice Independent Fabrication commuter bike (handbuilt in Somerville, MA, my former home.)

UPDATE: I just found the bicycle in question on the Independent Fabrication website.

POST UPDATE UPDATE: The bicycle is showing up on the Roleur site at the Jack and Jimbo’s Bike Shop opening. Roleur is connected to Rapha. Rapha has some partnership with Jack and Jimbo’s. Jack and Jimbo’s is a side project from Jack Spade, which was founded by Andy Spade, who is coming to speak at Stanford University on April 15th, 2009 for a Liu Lecture! Full circle.

Spent some time at Tesla Motors in Menlo Park, CA. Fantastic machines and friendly people. You can see some images through my Flickr page.

Tweed Run, London January 24th 2009

The first Tweed Run took place in London recently with about 150 cyclists wearing tweeds and the like. A veritable Gentleman’s Whiskey and Chat on two wheels. We need to bring this stateside. Any takers?
