Cyclocross Varjo SM 2012 // VPCX Stylin'


The unofficial shadow Cyclocross Finnish Championships today at Louhela/Kaivoksela, Vantaa.

First batch of photos has surfaced, here. Plenty of people showed up and raced despite the snowy and icy conditions and the course was hard and technical just like it should be. Geared cx bikes were dime and dozen like always but here are photos of the best different styles, in the true VPCX spirit.

VPCX 2011 // Kivikko, Helsinki


VPCX 2011 - Kivikko from Rhubarb on Vimeo.

Third race of the unofficial unsanctioned VPCX 2011 Cup in Kivikko, Helsinki. It was muddy as hell, and fun.

The VPCX Cup has been running for several years already and those "V and "P" stand for "Wrong" "Paths". It's a free-for-all cyclocross race series but strictly only those riding bikes with no suspension and drop bars are rewarded precious cup points. While some people rode fixed bikes too, I rode my Beasley 650B SS MTB but wouldn't have earned any points anyway.

Ghost Bike Alleycat

Tnts and Mika teamed up for an alleycat to test their brand new camera equipment a while ago in Helsinki's "outer boroughs". Don't ask me about their cameras, I just don't know.

Cycling City HELLsinki





This made me LOL a little as it's part of my daily commute. That same block has been under construction works for well over a year now and the street is blocked just like that every damn day.

"Helsinkiläiset pyörätiet ovat turvallisia. Liikennesuunnittelijoiden ohella myös lukuisat muut Helsingin ja sen lähiseutujen asukkaat ja yritykset tekevät kaikkensa, jotta pyöräilijä ei voisi ajaa kantakaupungissa liian lujaa. Tällä hetkellä eli elokuussa 2011 erityisen turvallinen on Unioninkatu Siltavuorenrannan ja Liisankadun välisellä alueella."

Weekend Trip To Stockholm



Last weekend we "did" Stockholm. The drunken ferry, bike polo, beer, mashing around the town, the Finland vs. Sweden match even made it into the local newspaper. Great trip all in all, many thanks for the Stockholm boys and girls for hosting us in Söder!

Blog Introduction: Velo Helsinki Style Blog


It's been a while since I last picked out an interesting new blog. So this came right on time:

"This photo blog is about documenting the looks of cyclists in Helsinki. We think they are awesome! So we try to do our best to give our fellow riders the credit they deserve."

The almost brand new Velo Helsinki @ http://www.velohelsinki.com/ seems to take their inspiration from a certain original Danish female cyclist stalking blog that spawned thousand copycats as well as from the infamously ridiculous Hel Looks Helsinki street style blog.

I'm entirely sure what to think about the Velo Helsinki but I know for a fact that especially the comments added to the photos already induced some teeth grinding somewhere. Also, I guess it's not like everybody who will end up being photographed riding out on town and minding their own business will be super thrilled about ending on some style blog to be "flattered" with nice comments on their awesome bike or personal style.

Anyhow, despite all this let's hope the guys will keep busy and up the good work portraying HKI cyclists' styles.
