The Spreenkler group in Milwaukee is one of the more creative, driven sets of people that I’ve ever met. In this video, Brian Artka gives a little taste of what the crowd is like. Great work Brian.

Teecycle Photo Shoot with Valo Photography

Over the weekend, I joined a few friends at Bucketworks to model T-shirts for Teecycle.org. Teecycle sells used shirts and gives a portion of the proceeds to charity.

Simon and Jake from Valo photography shot the whole thing, and they are extremely talented as you can see below. Well a good model doesn’t hurt of course ;-)

Here I am doing my best praying mantis attack

And then I made it rain…

And here’s genuine smirk for ya

If you’d like to know more about Teecycle, check out the video from when I interviewed Tim, the founder, for ActionsTalk

The summer in MKE will now truly be that much sweeter. Check out my new ride… I went with the Specialized “Allez” (French for “Go!”). I’m counting on a lot less of this.
