His name is Chris Bangle. Charming and personable with great humour ... He gave his talk on the Tuesday at the BMW Edge venue at Federation Square.

From mid-2006 to the first week of 2010, I was a tiny cog in a mega-corporation and my primary job responsibility was to make the red piece of a pie graph look smaller for some guys in big, cushy offices. I was told four times per year that I was exceeding management's expectations and was rarely ever given much more feedback than that. These days, I love what I do and who

There's nothing like bombing down a trail or hill at full speed ... However, sometimes it's all about chilling out on a bike ... A lot of us here at Ben's ride 3 speeds and even though they are all set up differently, there's no denying their simplicity and versatility ... Here's my Raleigh Lenton Tourist ... It's made out of Reynalds 531 tubing and the cable pulley is actually brazed on! Converted the 26-1 3/8" wheels to 700c with 28c Panaracer Pasaelas ... This thing is probably close to 40

Webb House in Colleyville, Texas, on a BEAUTIFUL August Day ... I've never done a lot of stopping to look at the sights along my commute route. Today's subject is directly along my route, both to and from work, and, what's more, it's lit up when it is dark out, making it hard to miss.
