This is Micaela Neto, she is 25 years old and works as a graphic designer in Lisboa, Portugal.

Her last bike was from her father, a kind of family heritage, a classic road bike from the 70′s.
Now she bought this single speed bike, which was built up by RODA GIRA (facebook) using mainly 8bar Bikes (facebook) Parts and also AURORA Velcro Straps.

I can’t live without bikes, because it’s my way of living the city, my everyday transport and, when you get used to this kind of freedom, it becomes impossible to live without your bike.

- Micaela

With her friends she started a bike collective, named Matilha Cycle Crew. With this collective they aim to promote a cycling lifestyle in the city, with no boundaries, traffic jams or stressful rides.
At Matilha Cycle Crew they are always looking for some nice ideas and events to turn Lisboa in a bike friendly city, one step at a time.

So, next time any of you visit Lisboa, just say “Hello” and you will definitely find some nice people to ride with.

Riding Fixed Gear, living a vegan lifestyle and many tattoos.
That’s Model Mianzi Rei from Berlin.
After a car accident she was involved in with her old bike some years ago, she had nothing to ride and a good friend gave her a fixed gear bike. She learnt to ride fixed and now can’t live without it. Thanks to Oliver Playford, who took these awesome pictures, we get a momentary glimpse of her unique style.

Not to mention that she is rocking AURORA V1 Velcro Straps. Good looks.

AURORA for good people.

Thanks Mianzi and Oliver for sharing.

Just came back from Sascha in Düsseldorf, who helped out producing the first AURORA Skateboards. On the pictures you can see some impressions of his neat store called “Rebel Gärage” and of course a glimpse on our new Skateboards. We dropped a full-color universe logo print on a canadian maple wood Skateboard (Made in the USA!!!) for your pleasure. Perfect shape and soon to be available in our webshop.
