Was just sent this video by a friend & had to share it… it’s Danny MacAskill traveling back to his home the only way he knows how…by riding his bike all along the way. If you’re a fan of beautiful cinematography, amazing street biking and killer soundtracks then this is right up your alley.
Enjoy.

Well folks, we’re almost a week into Movember so I thought i’d share a recent billboard produced by Colenso BBDO, Auckland for Snickers to help promote Movember and Prostate Cancer Research. If you haven’t heard of it before, Movember’s a great charity that started a few years ago in Melbourne, Australia but is now international with over 255k members participating. Mo Bros and Mo Sistas who sign up for the event try to raise donations by participating in mustache-related promotions, antics as well as parties & events. Last year alone we raised over $42 million during the charity drive and this year we’ll hopefully push past $50m. The rules are simple – You start out on November 1st clean-shaven and aren’t allowed to shave (minus mustache related trimmings) for the entire month. It’s a whole lot of fun not to mention it benefits a great cause.
If you’re in the charitable mood I encourage you to donate a couple of bucks (even a $2 donation would be put to good use!) at my Movember Donation Station. Thanks!

In celebration of last night’s season finale of Mad Men, here’s a pretty good cover of the theme song (which is A Beautiful Mine by RJD2) performed live with a full band.
From the creators:
We loved the song “A Beautiful Mine” by RJD2 that plays during the opening credits of “Mad Men.” We wanted to put lyrics to it and realized that “Nature Boy” made famous by Nat King Cole, and written by eden ahbez, was the perfect fit. This was filmed in one take (this one, specifically, happened to be take 29 of the day)…no cuts, dubbing, lip-syncing or auto-tuning.
