Just go to NEMBA's website to get started. Get in on the action and usher in the new season! Kona Bicycles and JRA Cycles proudly present the 3rd Annual Boston Mountain Bike Video Awards, a NEMBA benefit. Featuring the best regional videographers and the best local riding talent, the event is a fun-filled evening of films, Redbones BBQ, and cash bar sponsored by Harpoon Brewery. Get your tickets now to ensure a spot; finalists will be announced in mid-March at which point the tickets will likely go fast! Kona Clump pro rider, David Watson, will be in the house, hanging out with the audience and talking about his experiences as one of the best —and most filmed— freeriders. Many remem- ber David's antics at the Tour de France when he launched himself over the tail end of the peloton. "This event has become a great tradition for New England moun- tain bikers." says event organizer, Krisztina Holly. "It brings together the whole Boston mountain bike scene and gets people psyched for the new riding season." The event will be held at a historic silent film movie theatre that has been converted into a community center by the Phillips Congregational Church in Watertown, MA. Tickets to the event are $30 (food included) and can be purchased online at www.nemba.org. Tickets may also be purchased by phone at 800-576-3522.

Although existing for decades in much smaller numbers, the popularity and credibility of framebuilder entre- preneurship—custom, handmade bike frames—has increased Tsignificantly in the past 10 years. The companies that specialize in custom -producing bicycle frames vary in size, scope, reputation, profitability, and even building materials.

  • Solitary Perfection One Rider’S Pursuit of Artisanal Purity
    SOLITARY PERFECTION One rider’s PURSUIT OF ARTISANAL PURITY BY GARY J. BOULANGER PHOTOGRAPHY BY BRIAN VERNOR N AN UNSEASONABLY WARM AND SUN- ny Sunday afternoon last March, several of the world’s best bicycle-frame builders gathered in a crowded pizzeria in San Francisco’s SoMa district. Among the ranks were a veritable ‘who’s who’ of bicycle craftsmanship: Steve Potts, Bruce Gordon, Paul Sadoff (Rock Lobster), Brent Steelman, Jeremy Sycip and Steve Rex, lining the walls with some of the best two-wheeled eye candy under one roof. San Diego surf-jazz twins The Mattson 2 lit up the place with their unique sound as patrons milled around the piz- zeria with the esteemed builders, all enjoying wood-fired Neapolitan pizza made by New Jersey native Anthony Mangieri. This wiry, heavily tattooed proprietor of Una Piz- za Napoletana conceived this gathering—billed as ‘Ruota Libera 2011’—along with Soulcraft’s owner, Sean Walling. Mangieri, who speaks in whispering tones reminiscent of Alec Baldwin and has the hard-edged veneer of a skate- boarding, punk-rock bassist, opened this pizzeria at 11th and Howard, catty-corner to California Chopper and walk- ing distance from the DNA Lounge—a popular music venue that’s hosted the likes of Metallica, Prince and Green Day. Prick Mangieri’s finger on Monday and he’ll bleed chain lube. Prick his finger on Wednesday and he’ll bleed buffalo mozzarella cheese.
