High Desert Adventure Van
Cruising to my usual morning #coffeeoutside spot and I passed this beaut, “down by the river”. No bikes or bike rack, but we’ll give ’em a pass for now due to solid artwork.
Take the Five
Interstate 5, the primary highway on the West Coast of the United States, runs for more than 1,000 miles between Mexico and Canada, through California, Oregon and Washington. In this experimental short film, the US filmmaker Conner Griffith takes the Californian stretches of the highway, and flips, spins, intercuts and speeds them up to exhilarating effect, set to a vigorous rendition of Take the ‘A’ Train, performed by the US jazz pianist Richard Tee. The video cleverly juxtaposes quintessentially East Coast urban music with West Coast rural imagery but, more than anything, it’s a wildly fun ride.

As a kid I spent countless hours riding up and down California’s roads visiting relatives. So many of these landscapes are etched on my mind from endless window gazing. Do yourself a favor and go full-screen on this one.
Tall Bikes Will Save The World
Good mojo spreads organically. Hat tip to GeWilli via Stevil Knevil for the find. Spread the love.
Medieval Wood Riving
Love seeing traditional methods of woodworking and framing. Great video here on making 8, 13 metre long rafters from one tree. Just how well these guys maintain their tools and edges alone is an art in and of itself.
Only way this could be any better was is if these guys rode their bikes out there and set up camp.
