Vivona Collab!

Tomorrow (11/13), Jason Vivona will be having a solo showing of his art work at Gallery 6.

This zine is available the opening night of the show. I did all the outside, while Jason did the large drawing that is shown once opened full page. Limited Edition of 69! Ha!

Here's a link to more info about the show: Gallery6

*Insert cliche' sorry here*

Fill in the above with whatever would fit for "sorry the lack of updates, via the Ice Cold Blog." If you got your copy of Issue #3, you probably saw how I have a hate-love-hate relationship with technology. With this in mind don't expect to find too many updates.

In other news I finally finished up with Issue #4. I am super stoked on how this issue came out. Compared to the Issue #3 , it looks like someone else took-over! I've run into some slight delays with getting copies made though. Funds are tight at the moment, so #4 has been put on a temporary hold. Sorry!

In the meantime if you really need an internet fix, make sure you check out Holeshot. Nick always has the best updates, and has recently decided to focus more time towards his two fantastic projects: Holeshot and Amigos Publishing. As always Nuno provides great photos. Ben recently changed the PDX site, due to his recent move! And Adam always seems to be getting a Cult of some kind going.

Until next time. - Ryan/Spoon

Adam Roye: Recent Events

Adam Roye, who runs Cult, has a nice profile over on ESPN right now.

Big props go out to Adam, this is much deserved. I've always looked up to Adam with his creative ideas in both Cult and Empire. When I stumbled across this post via ITG, I was beyond stoked. Look for an upcoming stuff from Adam in Ice Cold. If not... you probably wouldn't understand anyways.

ICE COLD #3 AVAILABLE NOW!

It's in the juuuuice!

I saw this photo over on olivejuuuuice and I had to re-post it.


Olive Juuuuice, is the photo-blog of Nuno Oliveira. He also has a daily blog which he updates here. Also for those that didn't know, Nuno is a regular over on Defgrip.

Speaking of the grip, in cased you missed it on July 6th ICE COLD was featured as the "Photo of the day." Thank again Nuno, you the man!

P(r)opsicles to the homies!

Nick Ferreira



Nick is so busy, I have no idea how he does it. I'm often blown away about the great content I'll find on his blogs. Nothing regarding the X-Gaymes or who just got sponsored, but the real reason we all choose to ride bikes (of any sort)... FUN!

Adam Roye



Adam has done so many rad projects. Remember Aaron Ross' signature graphics for the 'Stairmaster' (now the Maneater). What about the graphics for not one, but all of the Chase Hawk Signature frames. Yep, Adam stays busy and runs an awesome zine called CULT. As he's said before, "If you don't buy one, its cool... you wouldn't understand anyways."

Prashant Gopal



Prashant runs another zine, by the name of Yo, Sick! Which is also free by the way, I know with the tough times its hard to spend those pennies. He also contributes to Flickr with some awesome riding shots, and runs an awesome local Ottawa BMX site that's been going for the past 7-8 years by the name of Capital BMX. I've never had a chance to meet Prashant, but through snail-mail and the inter-nerd I have a feeling he's a kickass dude!

Capital BMX

Yo Sick!

These dudes all run awesome zines, and helped push me to complete the first issue of Ice Cold. I've never had a pen-pal in the past and always wanted something more in the mail then bills and advertisements, and thanks to these three I have some great reading material along with some great pals!

The Frog goes down!

I just read over on the Deluxe site, that their team rider Frog took a pretty nasty fall. A fractured shoulder, bruised face, and some missing teeth... damn! For some awesome trails photos from over the pond visit: Im A Easy Rider



Also Nick over at, In the Gnar, just posted a good critique of military hats. It reminded me of my old Odyssey hat I had packed away. Diggin' this guy out reminded me of the awesome parts run Odyssey had made. And who can forget Adam Banton's signature backpack (Now on sale by the way! 29.99!)

And last but not least, I have some paintings over here for sale... on the cheap! Help me get a BMX again!
