An inspiring video shot completely on Super 8 film from some of my favorite influencers in the cycling industry. The video was written and produced by the man, the myth, the legend Ronnie Romance Jr., who I was lucky enough to see in action at the 2017 Philadelphia Bike Expo during his captivating presentation of “The bicycle, a vehicular philosophy of simplification and meditation for the modern world”, cinematography was handled by the talented Sandy Carson whose new photo book looks amazing and the video was, in part, sponsored by No.1 bicycle blog, The Radavist. A fantastic journey with the perfect amount of undertone and introspection.

Geoff McFetridge is one of my all time favorite artists and this video by Goldwin is a beautifully strung together series of clips showing how seamless the transition between art and casual sport can be. Looking at sport as an artistic expression is something that has interested me since I first picked up a skateboard in elementary school. This relationship is something that I intend on taking a much closer look at in 2019.

Originally hearing this song as a live recording done in Bob Boilen's hotel room as part of his South x Lullaby series at SXSW, I was Intrigued. I dug a little further and found the official music video below which, I might add, is absolutely incredible. It really makes me want an analogue video camera...
