My motorcycle obsession is nothing new. Let my parents tell it - when I was a toddler I’d go nuts when one one drove by and I’d point and shout “MO-MO.” Before I could say the word motorcycle, momo was all my young brain could muster (quite an achievement if you ask me). Anyway, the latest fixation has me drawn to old 1970’s honda’s or kawasaki’s- can’t explain it it’s like a spidey sense. Check this site out wrenchmonkees.com they have the machines that I’ve been breaking my neck over lately. Craftsmanship.

ON THE GOOD FOOT

Lately I’ve been hypersensitive to footwear and watches. It started when I was doing some research before purchasing  a pair of classic tan wingtips. During the search I stumbled on some great shoes. Like these hand crafted boots from Helm.

Found these on Uncrate.

Every now and then I actually read my daily Thrillist.com e-blast when there is a witty headline or compelling photo. Most days I wake up and delete them from my blackberry because its usually the Thrillist email causing the 7am red blinking light (sorry Thrillist). But yesterday I was thanking them because they hit us with these bad boys. You know its a good post when you’re getting emails from froms like “yo- did you see these…?”

VANE New York City is smashing. Prices range from $140 to $195. Size 13 please to however is listening.

NEW STUFF - Ric

March 11th, 2010

I’ve been contemplating layers and the relationship between things physical and metaphysical, other dimensions and what not. How do each effect our appearance or our perception? or our preference?

Looking to show towards the end of the year.
