Mash Exhibition at Project Space
NICEEEE!
Many of the MASH riders are native Californians and have traveled the entirety of the state's length and interior by bike and car alike. However, the Golden State never ceases to amaze with its endless beauty and equally inspired sweeps of panorama. The nine stages of the 2009 Tour of California revealed to our 6 riders new treasures in landscape and scenery that left both natives and transplants in awe. It was against this incredible backdrop that we rode the race's 750 miles on our track bikes.

Banksy kills SF
Banksy always provides inspiration. SanFran is lucky!
“Combining business with pleasure, the stealthy street artist has hit up famous spots like the Fisherman’s Wharf and Alcatraz. We can’t remember the last time Banksy has gifted one city with so many street pieces, so fans in the Bay Area are definitely the subject of some worldwide jealousy at the moment.”

Cult Streetwear - Josh Sims
If you've been a part of the phenomenon known as streetwear.. Buy this here..
From its origins in American workwear, via west coast subcultures, extreme sports and subsequent commercialism, streetwear has become to fashion as hip-hop has to music: a global phenomenon. Incorporating cultural codes of dress, the best in graphic design, as well as exemplary brand-building – the products not of corporate giants but cottage/tenement industries – the leading streetwear brands have become influential beyond the sphere of fashion alone. Streetwear may form a fundamental look for out-of-office-hours dress for teenagers and middle youth alike, but its leading lights have connections with the worlds of art, advertising, music and interiors that make them as potent as ‘designer’ brands many times their size.
Showcasing over 30 of the most exciting and – importantly – pioneering of streetwear brands, this book focuses not on the endless me-too labels, but those that have shaped the market since the late 1980s. Cult Streetwear tells the stories of the people behind the brands – from entrepreneurs to graffiti writers, DJs to surf dudes to sneaker nuts, from LA to NYC, London to Berlin and Tokyo. It explores each brand’s cultural resonance, and explains why so many have gained a cult following while continuing to break new ground in a market with unlimited scope for innovation.
