Forrest Nelson Harvey Got into bikes through the door of fasion single-speeds on the streets of Oakland. Then moved on to vintage racing bikes.

Aaron Taylor Harvey started with mountain bikes in the 9th Grade and quickly became as interested in their construction as he was in riding them.  He moved on to fixed gears in high school and undergrad, and managed to live in Los Angeles for four years without a car. After grad school at CCA for architecture he decided to stay in San Francisco where he currently bikes to work every day.

A skirt should not force you to walk.
