Life of a Spokecard

It's been hard staying motivated to produce work outside of school. Here's a quick experimental video I did last weekend. Music by Zie

Broken Horns

For a while, I've been riding around on some Cinelli LA84 bullhorn bars that I found in my friend's garage. They were previously cut and drilled so I ran them with a brake lever actuated bell.

The bars began creaking and after a few months, they snapped at one of the drill holes.





When they broke, I simply rode home on the tiny bit of handlebar left. However, to get this bike up to the Coop, I needed more leverage. The solution:



Spinaci bar ends.

Home Stretch

In one week I'll officially be done with school. After a few overnight editing sessions on campus I finished putting together my senior documentary. It focuses on The Bike Coop, a collectively run bike shop at UCSC. Along with a handful of other students, I have been an owner of the shop for over two years. It's going to be tough letting it go next year.

Anyways, this film sums up my college career: a major in Film & Digital Media and a minor in Bicycle Repair & Community Organizing

Enjoy.
