\\\\\ UPDATE the mystery bike match game has been solved. Deb got them all right on this comment. /////
Howdy y’all, Dartanyon here. We normally don’t post much on the weekend, but I wanted to take a moment for an off-topic Sunday morning Public Service Announcement. May is bike to work [and school] month. Around the studio we’re environmentally conscious, and have turned BTWM into sorta a big deal. We join in on the ride challenge put on by our local bike club, and get a little competitive when it comes to who can rack up the most miles.
Consider this little PSA post my personal invitation to you, to hop on a bike an go for a ride. You don’t need to commit to riding to work everyday in May [although that would be awesome]. You could just ride on National Bike to Work day on the 20th of May, or whatever works for you.
I got a laugh from our April Fools Day post where we all had switched out face parts. So in this spirit, I’ve whipped up a little “match game”, but this time it’s going to be a game of Match-The-Bike-To-The-Rider. So, to see portraits of our lovely commuter steeds and match ’em to their riders, hit ‘continue reading’ below…
When I prepped this post only 7 of us had ridden our whips in so Norton and Megan missed out…)
So, for our crew, that leaves:
- Chase
- Dartanyon
- Scott
- Jerard
- Erik
- Mara [she’s new, say hi]
- Kate
Match those riders with these steeds:
1980 Trek 710
2001 K2 Team ZED
2010 Trek XO2
1975 Bianchi Pista
2007 Scott CR1
1998 Cannondale Volvo Team CAAD3
1999 Rodriguez Stellar
If anyone matches the riders to their bikes, I’ll try to talk the bossman out of a signed book or something. We’ll track you down. Good luck with your guess and enjoy biking to work starting Monday. It’s good for you and good for the world.
[Lastly, if you’re a bike nerd too, let’s take this offline. Hit me up, I’m @dartanyon. on Twitter]
Can I immediately declare what a relief to find a name who actually knows what theyre talking about on the internet.
I would like to show some thanks to you just for rescuing me from this particular trouble. After scouting through the internet and getting tips which were not beneficial, I believed my entire life was over. Existing without the presence of strategies to the issues you have resolved by way of your main website is a serious case, as well as those that would have badly damaged my career if I had not encountered your site. That mastery and kindness in dealing with every part was precious. I am not sure what I would have done if I hadn’t discovered such a step like this. I’m able to at this moment relish my future. Thanks a lot so much for the expert and sensible help. I won’t hesitate to refer your web site to anybody who desires guidelines on this issue.
Wohh precisely what I was searching for, appreciate it for posting.
I’d love to bike to work but it’s like 33 miles each way and it rains here.
May should be BACK to work month in my office.
You guys should do a little mixy matchy gear swap. How sweet would that leather (brooks?) seat look on the Pista?!?
