LOOP Magazine Vol.5

the GRIME
Mike Schmitt / Torey Thronton / Joey Krillz / WONKA

LOOP magazine Vol.5 is just out today in Japan.
the GRIME is on the cover and "the Door to the LOOP" pages.

Here is some words from Krillz.
"Our originating idea was a simple one: rather than sporting a brand by someone we don’t know, let’s work on building something for us and for every other rider stuck in-between worlds of roadie/trickster/courier and for the newly emerging fixed/freestyle and 700cmx scene. Not every cyclist is a Keirin pro, cleaned cut roadie or even a courier.We represent the Gritty in-betweens of the wheeled world and want to bring you true underground NY Style. "

More story from NY
"Made in Brooklyn - HOLD FAST-"
"BIKE POLO NYC -BENCH MINOR TOURNAMENT-"

MASSANが僕に最高のサンフランシスコを見せてくれました。
毎日通った$1.50のウインドウ・タコス。
深夜まで営業しているメキシカンレストランのシュリンプブリトー＆ステーキブリトー。
数々のホームパーティ。
今回のレポートはそんなサンフランシスコ・ストリート・ファイネストの中から生まれました。

人生2回目のサンフランシスコの旅。
オープニング前日に片道チケットを購入し、サンホゼ空港からBartトレインで無賃乗車のチケットを切られそうになりながらもグーグルマップを頼りにエヴァーゴールドにたどりついた後、自転車に乗って全ての取材を成し遂げました。
はじめてのアウエイ取材は慣れない事が多く、本当にいろいろな人が僕を助けてくれました。
SFのストリートとライダー達に心から感謝しています。本当にありがとう。
今回の旅の途中で一つ目標を失い、そして新しい目標を一つ得ました。
その目標に向かって一直線と言う訳にはいかないと思いますが、でも少しずつ近づいていきます。

素晴らしい機会を与えてくれたLOOPマガジンと読者の皆様へ感謝の気持ちを込めて。
これからもよろしくです。
