Nora Cup Awards BackstageIt happened again. I thought I had escaped having to go to Interbike but a the last minute Ride BMX Magazine asked me to present an award at Nora Cup. It is a big honor and so even though it wrapped a lot of my biggest anxieties into one (flying, Interbike, Vegas, and public speaking) […]

1995 vs 2011Before I started working at Odyssey or getting to work on Fairdale designs, and before my time as an owner of T-1 I got to design a bike for my then sponsor Hoffman Bikes. At the time the “Taj” frame represented everything I wanted in a bike. We got the geometry right and we made […]

Purple helmet fax machineYep, I'm a hater.

I was Mat Hoffman’s Stunt DoubleMat's in the news again... new movie about him and he's riding some. Got me thinking about some old times.

This is a one-of-a-kind Weekender Archer we custom

This is a one-of-a-kind Weekender Archer we customized with @zilkerbeer to celebrate the release of the Zilker x Fairdale Sunny Spokes hop water (which is available now around Austin). @powderatx powder coated it this lovely yellow color pulled from the can art. For some reason we’re always afraid to make yellow production bikes but this one came out awesome. Our friends at @Oldmanmountainracks sent over their Elkhorn rack and basket (which were also custom painted). We love this rack and basket combo and it is a great addition to a Weekender. @nameisbauer made some custom decals based on the Zilker x Fairdale Hop Water can.

One lucky person takes this bike home after winning it from Zilker Brewing. Enjoy it!

A quick shoutout to @austinaugie who recently completed a bike ride from Indiana to DC aboard his Fairdale Weekender. He also had his beloved dog Tonka Truck in tow! Augie is working on a trip video, so keep an eye out for that.

Shoutout to our friends at @zilkerbeer for inviting us back for another seasonal collaboration. This time we landed on a citrusy and refreshing Hop Water, with custom can art courtesy of @tajlucas of course. This one hits just right during these hot temps! Keep an eye out for this in and around Austin markets or pop into the brewery on East 6th.

Thanks again for the opportunity Zilker 🤝
