Rush Hour Race

Rush-Hour-Race-Poster-2015-FINALFINAL-2

Which is faster- car, MBTA, or bicycle? Come to Union Square Tuesday evening to see the result in the annual Rush Hour Race. There are two extra awesome things about this event:

  • Unlike so many bike events, this one does not require you to wake up super early
  • Because of the unique evening timing (and beer) I will be at this event. I will have a pop-up shop there with lots of stuff like my book on how to bike. Please say hi.

So come out, say hello, buy my book, get yourself a beer, enter a raffle.

Rush Hour Race
Union Square Plaza
Somerville, MA
5:30pm – 9pm (my pop-up shop will be there until 8.)

Also, Dill Pickle Gear will be in the same room for one stop bikey shopping. This is part of Somerville Open Studios where there will be hundreds of artists across the city opening their studios (and 70 other artists in my building alone) so make a day of it!

In just over a week, I will be at MICE (Massachusetts Independent Comics Expo) in Cambridge, MA. But adding to the excitement, I will be debuting the first Bikeyface BOOK at MICE! (Well it’s technically a mini-comic but still a book-shaped object with multiple pages with pictures on them.) The book will be available first at MICE, so if you’re in the Boston area you should stop by. Also check out some other amazing artists and workshops while you’re there:

MICE 2014
Saturday October 4th, 10am – 6pm
Sunday,  October 5th, 11am – 4pm

Then after checking out MICE, go get some ramen (if you can.)

New- Bikeyface Store!

It’s always been easy to have a bikeyface on your bike. But now you can have a Bikeyface indoors. Introducing new Bikeyface posters, available in the new Bikeyface store:

Bikeyface 11×17 Happiness poster

Happiness

This poster was inspired by reading about the World Happiness Report. The happiest nations are also the most bikey. Is that really that surprising?

Bikeyface 18×24 Be Yourself poster

Just be yourself. On Wheels.

Because sometimes it seems many people think these two cyclists are on the road. I don’t know about you, but I see many other bicyclists out there these days. I created this poster to open everyone’s mind and invite more people to grab a bike, no spandex/skinny jeans required. 

Bikeyface Open Studio

For those in the Boston area- I’ll be having an open studio event in December where you can buy in person:

Open Studios, Vernon Street Studios
December 7th & 8th, 12-6pm
6 Vernon Street, Studio 54, Somerville MA, 02145

While there, you’ll have a chance to view my non-Bikeyface art as well as visit many other artists’ studios.

As always, thanks for reading & supporting Bikeyface!
