Ornamental Connifer

So digging the work of Nicolai Sclater Connifer, aka Ornamental Connifer. His simple, bright, geometric designs and lettering transcend the typical style street art, bringing his unique take on Pop-art.

How to Ride Bitch

I have to admit, without a grab rail I don’t really know where I’d put my hands if riding pillion with another guy. Luckily, this video has the answers. Look for Meerkat style!

Tank Moto Issue 06 Launch @ Rupert

Some snaps I took at the Tank Moto Magazine launch which also doubled as a Rupert Cafe launch as well.. This is one of their most impressive issues to date, truly a world class publication. Oh, and that back cover image was taken by me.

Dust Hustle was Ellaspede’s day on the dirt for anyone to roll out and ride whatever rig they could throw a leg over!

Looks like a rad day. Would have loved to hear the buzz of those engines though.
