We’re just back in from The Red Hook Crit, an astounding event and proud performance from the 5th Team below. More on the race events later, but for now big thanks to Matt Lingo for his shot of (from left to right) Chris Pino, Phil Garofolo, David Hall and Rudy Melo sporting the 2013 kits.

My CAA10 is a bit of an unsung hero, Chris decided it deserved some lens time so I decided it warranted some blog time. Some bikes you lust after for the way they look but none you truly love until you put the miles in together. After spiriting me through a successful opening to the season as well as some fantastic adventures such as BKLA13 the memories are beginning to become engrained and love starting to blossom.

No Comments#BKLA13 Day 3
Posted in: Photography, Rides, The 5th Floor
Yesterday marked the final ride of the #BKLA13 trip. We’d left Cloudburst to last partially out of fear partially as it felt like the climax to the trip should be the biggest climb, both of our journey and in the general rankings this was going to be a behemoth.
We broke clouds both physically and figuratively at 6,000ft discarding of arm warmers and gilet’s on the way up and shedding the weight of our legs and minds when we reached the top with the most rewarding views of the trip.
The descent was spirited and punctuated by lunch and the occasional roller until we finally peaked out after the redbox climb, incredible views to the desert, Pasadena and downtown LA were the rewards for our efforts through the technical turns and consistently high speeds.

No CommentsBrian Hall – Aende Bikes
Posted in: Bike Porn, Photography, Readers Ride
My post on Aende and Pongo some time ago remains one of our most popular and emotive posts. The amount of comments and reactions from people who owned and raced an Aende or knew Pongo – including his daughter – has been truly amazing. Brian Hall was one such person who got in touch and shot us this awesome shot of him racing his Aende Low Pro. It shows how much the lineage and the builder can add to your love of a bike.
If your inspired Pedal Pedlar have this stunning example for sale here.

Dosnoventa has a new site as hopefully your aware from the numerous blog posts on the subject. I think it looks awesome and I’m stoked to see David Perkins of the Deaf Pigeon fame up there on the family page. It also reminded me how awesome Dosnoventa’s tumblr is. Alongside Dave on the crew is Santi De Hita I snagged this photo of his by Mario Cranks.
