Katie and I just finished a fantastic weekend with Ryan and Becca Robins. We relaxed over the labor day weekend in a small little community, Pine Mountain Club, CA. They had a beautiful golf course surrounded by little cabins and houses.
We had a great time and look forward to a return visit maybe sometime in early Spring. I would love to see this place with snow all around.
Here are some photos from the weekend:
Here is a video I did of Becca and Ryan's beautiful baby boy:

Log Haven Timlapse
Visual Media is my passion and its the industry I have chosen to pursue. One of my favorite subjects is the outdoors and especially the night sky.
Here is a short timelapse video I shot over Labor Day weekend.

Love Vintage: Bowery Bicycles
I love me some vintage old stuff.
Growing up with avid antiquers I have developed quite a fondness for the old and unique. I also have a love for gadgets and gizmos which means that I love old electronics. I recently purchased my first antique television just last Thanksgiving in Wrightwood, CA. Its a 1949 Philco! It works but I can't seem to get a good picture... other then the electronic static noise or snow. I hope to repair it someday and then have a christmas party at our place where we all sit around and watch It's a Wonderful Life on our 7" B/W Philco! How awesome would that be.
Anyways, I am becoming distracted. Recently, my dad has been in the market for a bicycle to bike to work on. He loves the vintage as well and has found Bowery Lane Bicycle Company which hand makes bikes in New York.

They currently have three different models with the Bronks Raw being my father and my favorite. Its made from steel and instead of painting it a solid color they leave it bear. They weld marks are clearly seen. Its really a great looking bike. I hope he buys one soon because I would love to test it before I take the plunge and buy one myself.
Now I know I haven't mentioned anything motorized on this Scooter/Motorcycle blog... but this bike reminds me of the Genuine Stella and the vintage look it inspires...

Saw a Stella rider today..
Going about my work duties in Santa Monica I noticed a rider on a Stella! I then realized that I don't think I have even seen a Stella out in the open and in use before. Looked like he was having a grand time.
I recently started following the California Scooter Company CSC blog and noticed that they recently completed a scooter get-together where they road their CSC scooters from LA to the Angeles Crest Highway. Their pictures looked a amazing and just continues my crazy desire to let loose on these quite roads. Here is a link to the specific blog entry I am referring to.
Has anyone else ridden the Angeles Crest Highway? I would love to hear your thoughts and the routes that people have taken. I do know that one of the stops along the highway is a WONDERFUL little town called Wrightwood. Katie and I were lucky enough to be able to stay at a cabin with friends over Thanksgiving. We had an incredible time and would absolutely try our hardest to go back again this next fall. Here our two films I produced while in Wrightwood.
