Triple Rush

Triple Rush - Extended Trailer from Triple Rush on Vimeo.

"Trailer for the new Travel Channel show, "Triple Rush." Incredible photography of bike messengers as they weave in and out of traffic in New York City. It's a must-see Thursday nights at 10pm e/p only on the Travel Channel."

And don't forget about the Double Rush if you liked this.

Go Paavo!

Bit more about Paavo's new business here.

Congratulations Tampere! -> Tampereen Fillarilähetit

Paavo did it. Probably the most northernmost bicycle courier service in the world Tampereen Fillarilähetit starts operating on December 9th 2010, in Tampere Finland of course. Fast and Ecological and yes, they do deliver during the winter months too. Way to go!

10-9! Messenger Appreciation Day

It's the 10-9 day today. Pay respect where respect is due and yes, I remember that last year my 10-9 post somehow rubbed some people the wrong way, which just gives me all the more reason to do this again.

Anyhow, if you're interested in the bike messenger "culture" (I hate using the term culture like that...) of the New York City's 1980s Glory Days, you might wanna pick up Fast Eddie Williams' photo book "Bike Messenger Life".

FUCT Messenger Bag

Yay! FUCT makes a messenger bag.

Probably not the most practical or functional bag but I personally still dig FUCT. Out of all the early 1990s skateboarding & whatever urban brands they were the coolest back in the day. Originators of the subversion. And yes, I'm really that old.
