In Stock: Highway 39 Prints

In Stock: Highway 39 Prints

Over the next few weeks, I’ll be offering high-resolution, professionally printed and packed photographic prints through the new PiNP Web Shop. The first in the series is entitled Highway 39. This winding road is found in the Angeles National Forest, en route to Cloud Burst off Highway 2. This was shot using Neopan 400, so expect lots of God grain.

An 11×16 print on glossy paper will run you $35 shipped in the continental USA.

Because of the delicate nature of photographic prints, I will only be shipping this batch to the USA. If you would like one internationally, please contact me for pricing.

Recent Roll: Portland Randomness

I mostly shot with my Hasselblad in Portland and in fact, I didn’t even remember shooting most of these photos. That’s always the sign of a good time! Check out more Portland randomness below.

LA Life

LA Life

If I were forced to move anywhere in the USA tomorrow, It’d be LA. Now saying that, I have to admit, I dislike 75% of the “city” but that 25% is mighty tempting and it’s that percentage that brings me back every few months. Last month, I was actually in town for the Mishka LA opening but managed to sneak in some time on the bike, in the bar and at Golden Saddle Cyclery. Even though I was only there for a few days, I had my fill until next time…

Recent Roll: Mt. Disappointment

Recent Roll: Mt. Disappointment

I love riding in LA. Well, not so much in Los Angeles as the Angeles National Forest. It’s home to the biggest climb in the continental United States (the Crest) and the routes you can take are limitless. From Cloud Burst, to Baldy and Mt. Wilson, meandering through the mountains is where I like to be when I visit LA.

So when Kyle asked me where I wanted to go the last time I was in LA, I told him that I didn’t care. His answer: Mt. Wilson and then Mt. Disappointment. I was game, as was Christian, one of Woody, Ty and Kyle’s employees. It was his first ride ever. While he didn’t go in for the haul up to Mt. Disappointment, he stuck his way up to the top of Mt. Wilson. Our day totalled around 65 miles and over 7,200′ of climbing. It was a blast!

Argonaut Ride

Argonaut Ride

I didn’t get to spend much time on the road bike while in Portland, but one of the two rides I did was with Ben from Argonaut Cycles, Kyle from Chris King, Souphorse and some fellas from the Jens Voigt Army who have been testing custom Argonaut Frames. We left from Portland and rode to Hood River. I borrowed Billy’s Raleigh Record Ace and we headed out towards Mt. Hood.

The route is arguably one of Oregon’s finest, hitting local favorites like Bull Run, Little Switzerland, and Lolo pass.

 The route took us alongside the river, through the Mt. Hood National Forest, past farms and orchards, before descending into Hood River. We totalled 111 miles and 7,700′ of climbing for the day. Tons of climbing and fun with a great group of guys.

We concluded at a carbon fiber facility just north of Hood River, where Ben from Argonaut has been working on custom carbon frames. There’s more to this story developing, so sit tight, but for now, check out the photos below.

Back in Austin for 7 Hours

Back in Austin for 7 Hours

I get back to Austin tonight, after a great time in Portland, only to take right off for LA for a few days. When I travel this much, I really miss the riding Austin has to offer. That and the character of the roads. The things you see on the daily are so stereotypical Texan (and American) that it’s a never-ending source for amusement.

Once I gather my thoughts, more coverage from Portland will commence, partially mixed in with tons of LA photos (again).

Enjoy your life, friends and the weekend.

Morning Cup with Damian Riehl

At this point Damian needs no introduction but as a man who finds himself behind the lens, more often than in front, I had to fire off the last exposures in a roll one morning. Fresh Pot is Damian’s daily digs and their coffee ain’t that bad either. Check out a few more shots below.

Jake Ricker: Crihs at CMWC Track Day

Photo by Jake Ricker

If this photo looks strange to you, it’s because Crihs is going against the number one rule of track cycling: let the people in front do all the work. Dude, what are you doing!? Whatever got intio Crihs’ head worked for him that day, as he landed on the podium for a few events. See more of Jake’s photos here, at his Flickr.
