Bike Nerds

From left to right: Me on the Riding Nemo fixie. I grew out my beard for extra hipster points. Next up, Dude on his road bike. He’s training for some triathlon and already biked 35 and ran five miles that morning. And finally Stonermike on his mountain bike. He took five bong rips in the morning.

We biked from my apartment to Downtown LA and took all kinds of photos of skate spots. We got kinda lost in downtown trying to find some food, but ended up at some super cheap market food plaza deal. The spots we documented were:

In the end we had some ice cream at Scoops (I had white chocolate and sea salt flavor, which was amazing). Overall we biked about 20 miles and hope to do it again soon, there’s still ton’s of spots to be added to Spotcovr.

I don’t think I could live in a space that small.

There are a lot of skateboard photos on Flickr, but most of them are not up to the level of what a “real” skateboard photo should entail. For example, the “most interesting” skateboard photo on Flickr is a boring newspaper style picture. “Where’s the coping?”

I made a selection of 100 of the best skate photos taken by 100 different flickerites. These are, in my opinion, pictures that could potentially make it into everybody’s favorite skate publication: The Skateboard Mag.

If you want to check out some more awesome skate photography, peep the work of ElectrikCandyland, fernandomartins, ineeddadrink and SnoopDong. Those guys really know what’s up.
