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.
Hej!
Finally I had the time to check out the pictures I took at last weekends Fahrradschau in Berlin. Besides brands like Schindelhauer, Goldsprint, Naturrad, 8bar and many more, I had the chance to share a booth with the good people at Force Effect. It was a great weekend and I met a lot great people. Check out some impressions.
Visited The Good Will Out in Cologne some weeks ago for the Norse Project x Pro Keds x Sneaker Freaker release party. Sneakerb0b got some nice shots here. The Good Will Out is always worth a visit, but the parties even more so. Normally they carry clothing, accessoires and the newest top-tier sneaker releases and much more to stock or to rock (or both). They definitely know what they are doing. And when it comes to party you always can expect a lot of beers, Jägermeister, Relentless and stuff for free. Check out this neat video of this afternoon.
Hej. We are still alive alive alive alive alive….!
After several weeks full of trouble and too much work, we are back on track now. A new flat, workspace/workflow new arranged and finally time to put the focus back on AURORA. It might be a bit late, but we hope you had a good start in 2012. This year is going to be great and we are really curious about what will happen. Some new releases are in the making right now and we will put them online as soon as possible. Besides this we are producing all our handmade goods on stock from now on. We want to minimize the waiting time for you in the future and provide you with a better shopping experience.
Not much talk about not-AURORA-related topics here, but maybe we should change this also for 2012. So let me introduce Perrion from NYC to you. He got his new mixtape “Circuit Breaker” out and you should really give it a listen. It’s on heavy rotation in our studio. Download it for free here and check out this song:
There are some nice events (Berlin Bicycle Fair and Pankt Saulopoly Hamburg Ciddy Alleycat/Polo Tournament) coming up pretty soon and we hope to see some of you guys there.
The last weekend was a bit longer and so we decided to take our bikes, sleeping bags and tent in the car and drive to Belgium for a short vacation. We visited Brugges, Oostende and Antwerpen and it was awesome. The weather was great, except the storm in Oostende, and also Belgium is a great country.
We found a nice little store – called VIER – in the streets of Antwerpen.
If you are going to visit Antwerpen, make sure to stop by.
And now check out some impressions of our trip. Read more
