TweetA busy unpredictable month. A lot less photos taken than normal. Tiny human becoming more of a human. An extended trip to Ireland. Some local exploring down lanes I didn’t know. Training with CVSRT. Training the tiny human to be an outdoor human. A wedding. Another trip to Ireland to spend time on a mountain. Read more →

June in Photos
TweetAnother busy month with life. Tiny human is growing. Summer is passing us by. Took time to get some film developed. Started picking up a bike in anger again. Felt good. Really good. Read more →
Bunyan Velo X Porcelain Rocket Mini Slinger Mini Review
Tweet I’ve wanted a Porcelain Rocket Mini Slinger for a while. A nice, simple, accessible way to carry a bigger camera around on a bike without putting it in a backpack, or in a framebag. But they’ve been out of production for a while and it was looking like that while was going to be a very long while. For… Read more →
Scotland in Film – First Time
TweetA post that has been in Proof mode for far to long: September of last year! ~~ The cycling focus for the past two years ended abruptly for me after the Tour Divide. I needed something else to focus on. Many would have ridden more, but I needed a break, something else to occupy my legs and mind. Running was… Read more →

TweetAnother busy month, but a very different type of busy. Getting back into the swing of exercising and minding a tiny human. Getting away to places we want to go. Getting some time to myself. Getting a new film camera. All positives. Read more →
April Photos
TweetSomething has been lurking in my brain for a while. Not riding bikes, but running. Camera annoyingly heavy for running. Maybe I should just photograph other things? Not my athletic life. Hmm, wonder what would happen if I did that more often? Would I become “better” at taking photos? Is there better? Either way, images from April that please me. Read more →
Tour Divide Commute in film.
TweetI spent most of my Tour Divide training rides along the canal between where I live and Manchester. 2 hours. 43 Kilometers. Each way, twice a day, up and over a climb gaining me 400m each direction. With work, family, and friends, it was the easiest way to combine training and life with too much of an impact. From February… Read more →
8mm
TweetLast year, with local rider and Super8 obsessed friend Giles, we went out and made a film for a competition. A film on film, not digital. A single Super8 cartridge shot with no room for editing. What was shot was what was to be entered, undeveloped, unseen by Giles. It was a fun day, 5 hours to shoot 3.5 minutes… Read more →
Best Photos of 2016
TweetI took quite a few photos this year. Some good, some bad. From them I’ve had an enjoyable (??) time trying to chose my favourite photo from each month. I failed. Too many stories, moments, actions associated to too many photos to cut down to 12. So I chose 24. One set of twelve for exercise; cycling and running mostly,… Read more →
