Mission Bicycle Company

I know you are probably thinking…”Dude, you don’t need another bike!” Well, the truth is I don’t. And for your assurance I will not be getting another one soon. But I have to show you the bike I’d like to have. Maybe next summer, right? Mission City Bicycles is a small bespoke bicycle company that focus on stylish affordable bicycles for the daily rider. Their story is unique. I like how they thought of an idea and catered it to people like myself and minds alike. Simple, clean, fashionable is there approach. But I will let them tell you what they are all about.

One thing I haven’t mentioned are the creative minds behind the project. As you will see there are some heavy hitters backing this startup. Such ones like Zach Klein of Vimeo, Jeffrey Kalmikoff - Creative Director at SkinnyCorp, Brett Slatkin - Senior Software Engineer at Google. Enough of me talking. Check out the collection of cool bicycles they have made on Flickr.

See Raymonn.com for the bike I like. (This is for the facebook reader)

    I agree! If I had the space to collect really sweet bikes I would do it in a New York minute (32 seconds).

This have to be the funniest iphone 4 videos thus far. These guys had me rolling with how seriously they played their parts. Via Funny or Die.

These are the funniest and best news slip ups ever on tv. Check it out — you need volume and a noose to stop you from bursting into laughter.

I remember when “Good Times” was the episode of choice. And no matter the circumstances they “keep they head above water, making a way” when they could. The “Jefferson’s” were moving on up to the east side and finally got that piece of pie they worked so hard for. And Sanford & Son bought and sold junk to live. Now we have Paris Hilton crowding my visual space trying to find a fake BFF. And Brodie Love (modern day male courting). I shall close my eyes and walk past TV’s.

You have to appreciate witty creative ideas that are sweet. I love the ending when the guy in boxer fell down at the tape, he kissed the lady–didn’t break a stride, jump on his stud, and set the eagle free to sore–the earth. Fun video! Via the Case.

I love how designer Jarred Bishop pushed the limits of the web. Notice the background as you scroll how the images are of the post, but only appears with it’s respective content. Unbelievable.

I laughed so hard after listening to these kids play the theme song of 2001. I’m not sure. But I ended up listening to this about five times and some how found some genius in it. You will need volume.
