BLK13 started as a bunch of dudes talking about starting something new. A bike company, or would it be parts, or would it be gear?

Ultimately, we let it take a life of its own. Right now, we view it more as a community. Maybe we'll do something more than those spray-painted shirts you may see every now and again or those sweet, sweet stickers. Don't sweat the technique. But for now, it's just about being on your bike and doing something.

So let's put some names to the faces, eh?

Trevor, aka BLKbeard

Chris, aka Dirty Biker. You can follow his adventures on twitter.

Jimmy, aka Makes Sense

erich, aka T.M. He's on twitter too if you want to read about arty crap.

There are so many other people not listed/pictured that contribute to make the events happen, it's not even funny. Tung's pulled some stuff together more than once. You've got the bike shop boys and girls that come to bike polo each week, even when we don't. There's the crew that volunteers to hang out at all the stations so the rest of you can ride the races. Trust us, we'll get to you soon.

Go ride your bike.
