James Straffon

Rapha's Grand Tour shoes were released this week, but I think I prefer James Straffon's efforts.

Acid Sweat Lodge

See? It doesn't take much. The Acid Sweat Lodge is the definitive guide to retro counter-culture and aspects of the universe that lie just under all of our horizons. You can pledge your support in three benefactor levels, and they've just released the GOONS Report, a visual rundown of the last year's category updates.

Stop It Right Now decks

One of my daily reads, Stop It Right Now, just dropped a limited run of skate decks. Swoop through to pick up one, and a matching doggy shirt, if you're that way inclined!

Riley Keough

Deus Bali Swap Meet

I've been posting up a lot of photos from various Deus Ex Machina events, but only because they are so prolific, and the photography is always gorgeous. Take these snaps from yesterday's Deus Bali Swap Meet. Looks like everyone had fun! Can't wait to get over there and check out the scene for myself...

It was the Carnevale de Velo at Deus Sydney on Saturday, I only managed to get a few shots of the action as I was chasing the shade while trying to custom paint a pair of B43 rims. I'll try and get them up today... Thanks to Piero and Stefan and Dare and Rod and everyone who helped to make the day another success and heaps of fun!
