Crihs‘ Mission Bay Crit was a huge success in SF and Mike Martin from MASH headed out to capture the night. I love low-light, moody photography like this. I’m stoked to hear this event went off smoothly and can’t wait to see more of these go down in SF.
Check out the official race report at MASH.

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.

Back when Chas had hair and Crihs wasn’t fat, they hit up Douglass St. with the Full Frame Collective and Werehaus guys. Terry got this shot of Chas, getting so pitted and it just makes me smile. For more entertainment, hit up the video from Douglass St. below.
Minor Threat and some easy spinning through Singapore. Not a bad way to start the day. The funniest thing about this video is you can totally tell Chas is picking on Crihs for that ridiculous wheel at one point. #Yahoos
Crihs has been trying to get out to Jakarta for Fixed Fest, leaving him with only one option left: donations via Kickstarter. I’ve always enjoyed seeing Crihs’ documentation from events and would love to see this event through his lens. Head here to donate but act quick, his deadline is Sunday!
While he’s no Lucas Brunelle, Crihs‘ race videos are always entertaining. I love the dark, grittiness of this 2011 Mash Vegas Drag Race footage.
Remember the story about how Crihs stole my Icarus track bike after a killer party at the Messenger Mansion (more on that tomorrow) and sent me an Instagram ransom? If you don’t brush up on it here. So imagine my surprise when I just got a bunch of film back from SF and found this on one of the rolls. Amazing. Crihs, you really out did yourself here buddy.
Yes, it’s that time again. Randomness from the streets of SF in preparation for the 2012 Red Bull RideNStyle. Today I met up with Crihs, Marc, Em and Chas over in the Mission and rolled over to Mash to see Mike and Walton. It was unbelievably warm out and for the first time, I finally had a track bike in San Francisco. It’s been fun so far and here’s a photo dump to hold you over for a bit!

Today Crihs took the mighty 12″ Keirin bike for a spin down 14th street. Here he is, concentrating before his descent. More to come…

I know I’ve been cropping portrait-orientation photos here on the site but these two photos are too good to put on another page. Crihs was in SF this winter, escaping the NYC cold and having a blast riding the hills of the city. Full Frame Collective did a great Personal Series on him while he was there and it’s definitely worth your time to check it out. They also touch on why Crihs spells his name like that… Head to FFC for the scoop!
Since PiNP is a one-man show, it’s tough to make it out to every single event. Over the years, I’ve gotten to know a lot of inspiring and talented individuals through the bike scene. Many of which are photographers who’ve inspired me to continue pressing forward with the site. So when I relaunched PiNP with new galleries and photosets, I wanted to reach out to my peers and ask them to contribute content. While I’m not ready to start handing over guest accounts, one of the ways I’m implementing this material is through Recent Roll posts: looking through their lenses.
The first Lens post is from Crihs and his experience at the 2012 NAHBS Mash Team TT race. Below are a series of photographs compiled while he raced. All photos by Chris Thormann.

After a close one at last year’s Monster Track, JT has seized the win for lucky number 13. From the video I saw on Facebook, he had this shit by almost half a minute. JT, I’m very stoked on this. See you at Red Hook Crit!
This just in from Chas:
1st – JT
2nd – Alfred
3rd – Chas (1st OOT)

Killer! Congrats to JT for pulling in 1st and to Chas for 1st out of town. So good!

Crihs has bid adieu to San Francisco for now but before he headed home to NYC, he got in some clips with Macaframa. Jason Rosete was there to catch the action. Check the full size shot below!
