    Hope you’re all spending time inside, and away from populated areas during these crazy times.
    Hope you get to meditate, spend time with loved ones, be outdoors if it’s easily accessible, or spend some time with your cycling shrine, whatever that may be to you. It’s a great time for self reflection and re-evaluation. A great time for personal growth outside of the false definitions instilled by capitalism or a job.
    How are y’all holding up? What have you been doing to pass the time? What have you been doing to stay sane? (at New York, New York)

    8:50 this morning in Times Square here in New York.
    Friend @jsknycbikes here, rode into possibly the last day open for a bit at @LTI_lightside photographic services.

    A lot of things are up in the air here in New York right now. A lot of us are feeling stir crazy and not sure what the next few months will hold.

    Personally, I work as a freelance photographer, and everything I have for work is off the table for who knows how long. Hoping I don’t burn through savings on rent and bills in the meantime.

    Do us all a favor and take this seriously. Call or reach out to older folks in your neighborhood or family that might be lonely or have trouble getting their needs met during this pandemic. FFS, wash your hands. And stop going out to bars or large gatherings.

    Stay safe out there friends. Digging into the archives from here on out for a bit to share stories and photos that never saw the light of day.

    Spread some emotional support if you have it. And in the great words of Bill and Ted, “Be excellent to each other!”

    🙏🏼❤️

    What a solid 2019 to date.
    Hard to believe we’ve helped create a community of friends and loved ones through a silly website and instagram.
    Over here at No Life, we wouldn’t change a thing.
    So much love for that community and the people that have supported along the way. Watching our friends and community grow has been a blessing.
    Going into 2020, it’s time to focus on your path. We have to get there together. Stay in your lane, love your friends and family, put others needs before yours when you have the strength to, don’t cool guy anyone, and don’t fuck with anyone who tries to cool guy you. Be wary of those trying to cash in on cheap shots. Be mindful and cautious of people looking out for themselves only. Show love, but build healthy boundaries. Stay humble. Tell your friends you love them. Tell the people you appreciate, that you appreciate them. And please, reach out to those friends who you think might be struggling this holiday season, and share some of that safe space you’ve been holding for yourself to help get through the holiday season. A lot of our friends and community are struggling this time of year, and often in silence.
    Remember, “If you continually give, you will continually receive”

    We deeply appreciate all of you.

    Going into the new year, we’d normally say ‘let’s get this bread’, but over here at No Life, we’d rather just bake a loaf with you in 2020

    The finish of the women’s race for Mission Crit was powerful, emotional, and everything you could ever ask for in a bike race.
    Evie Hound securing the win at the end was amazing to watch. Could not be more proud of her and the Mars team for throwing down as locals and crushing it.
    There’s some powerful photos in this set so makes sure to swipe through all of them!
    Congrats on your win Evie!!! (at Mission Crit)
