About the Guys

We are just two guys on bikes who enjoy cruising around cities. 

Have you ever seen those dudes in the full body racing suits on the 3000 dollar knock-off touring bikes?  Well, we're not them.  We spend more time inside pubs and bars than on the road.  I'd say we are sort of the nemesis of the biking fanatics.  We don't have special compartments for our backup shoes or imported $30 cycle protein bars.  We often forget the little things like water, maps, repair gear and the like.

This site is devoted to capturing our journeys and egging the creators of the most beautiful bikes into giving us a chance to test their mettle - to see how they play to the average guy.

Meet Sean and Remi:

The guys couldn't be different.  Remi is a straight, eastern european elitist and Sean is a gay, caucasian asshole.  But they do share a few things, most importantly a single and powerful passion for riding cool bikes.  They also share a lack of planning, an attraction towards impaired judgement and a knack for forgetting unimportant things like tools, maps and water.  But when the testosterone kicks in and faces turn red as they fight over the proper path to reach a destination, a common shared bond kicks in and always unites them:  beer.

Remi was born in one of the Seven Wonders of Poland, ZAMOŚĆ. There, as a child he rode around town on his Soviet made Kama folding bike dreaming of places in the world he could visit on it. The Kama was eventually traded for a very rusted and dangerous moped. Making his home in Denmark and then Canada, he continued to ride and love bikes into his teenage-hood. But then something happened, he got a car and forgot all about bikes! He even began
thinking that all people who owned bikes were weirdos who could not afford cars. But Remi is back! His childhood dream in hand and a sexy beast of a bike underneath him, he’s ready to hit the road, but not so sure what he’ll do if the road hits back!

Sean first communicated with his parents via teletype from inside the womb where he had recently gained access to the Dartmouth network. A hacker in college, he ended up in the military where he caused quite a stir riding his Unicycle to work. This prepared him to "work" as a Juggler by night and sleep on the streets by day. Then one day in a drug-induced Californian haze, he stumbled across the web. Calling it an "annoying fad", Sean would quickly change his tune in amazement as he was offered a paid position to BBS all day. Now he is a vegan in Canada with 5 cats where he carefully hides his technology and blog habit by masquerading as a dirty hippy.

Sean is currently a freelance consultant in Toronto, Canada. To his joy and amazement, he is paid to enable and drive innovation through the use of collaborative design, participatory research and serious play.
