In the early 90′s i used to ride a fixie around london as a cycle messenger and i had a beat up old track bike that looked like the cheap version to this puppy. i think cycle messengers are responsible for making these bikes the urban choice in cities around the world. might be a while before napier cyclists embrace this aesthetic but i’m feeling it.
thanks to john from Avanti Plus in Hastings for hooking us up.
The Box has arrived, locked and full of fine prints. Next Saturday and Sunday 4 – 5 September we will be hosting the Muka youth print exhibition. It’s an exhibition for only the young ones, strictly no adults.

The National Cafe in Napier is one of those places that has not changed since the day it opened.
New print for today based on my love for a style of music i like to call Aotearoa Roots. We have a bit of a tradition with roots music, from the Herbs, Unity Pacific, Twelve Tribes, Che Fu, Katchafire, FFD, Sal’ Dub, Black Seeds, Kora… the list goes on and on. It’s part of who we are and it’s as strong as ever.
