Saint Michel Chapel

One of the oldest chapels in all of France.

But age is not what makes it special, but it’s placement, on an 85 meters-high volcanic spire. Christians have to walk up 268 steps carved in the small mountain, to reach the place where Joan of Arc’s mother Isabelle Romee supposedly came to pray once.

Saint Michel d’Aiguile was built in 962 in Le Puy-en-Velay, a beautiful little French town also popular for its Notre Dame cathedral and it looks like it’s watching over it from above. It is quite a sight to behold.

MTB Freeride Comp Outside Tate


Nissan Qashqai MTB Freeride Comp was going on outside the Tate Modern last week and the mrs. got some cool pics of the riders in action. It was a great location to get some very random shots of bikes and art.





Doze Green & Rostarr Show


Went down to the War Pen show last Thursday by Doze Green & Rostarr at the Leonard Street Gallery in east London and absolutely loved the work! Especially Doze's stuff as he is one of my heroes and icons of design. I got to meet him and he even signed my Ganesh toy which was pretty much the icing on the cake for me!!!!
