We made it to the Shore and back! I for one did not think a strong ride was going to be possible this year (my doubt stemmed from my whopping total of two 10 mile training rides ALL YEAR)...but then I went and posted my best time ever. Neat.I'd like to take this opportunity to congratulate each member of Team Screens 'N' Spokes for your hard work and tenacity. You are awesome.

This year we'll be presenting to you 20 prints from old friends and new.

In the meantime, I wanted to let you know how teammate Ian has been preparing for the City to Shore Ride.Ian joined the MS Great 8 Foundation, a group of 10 riders that rode through 8 states in 8 days and with the goal of raising $100,000 to fight MS.

Last week, Screens 'N' Spokes teammates Ian Harris and Barney Leonard rode one circuit (approx 15 miles) of the Philadelphia International Bike Race. The pros do this 10 times at much higher speeds!

At the same time, I didn't want to mess with the formula too much.I had a few faint thoughts floating around, tandem bicycles, teamwork, quotes from Lost (yes that Lost), when it hit me: Collaboration. I had long admired some really great

Jon Smith, Seattle, WA. 26, male, single, Scorpio. Looks like Seth Rogen in Observe and Report but with a beard. Making posters since...2005? Maybe 2004. Posters is all he does, he works part time at D&L Screenprinting and the rest of his time is designing posters that get printed at D&L Screenprinting. He fears he will die alone.Let's not speculate too much on Jon's hopes and fears, however -

My favorite part about Hero's design this year are those hands! The heart is gripping on for dear life! And yet it's expression is calm and complacent...certainly does not resemble me on a bike...I am gripping on tight and my face is equally stressed at almost all times! ;)

Dan Judge did a print for this year's Beans 'N' Screens show, and has been an enthusiastic local supporter of Screens 'N' Spokes. We're excited to have him on board this year in our roster.Dan's print is AWESOME because it shows the beautiful skyline of Philadelphia as well as the GRUESOME bridge at the end of the City to Shore ride, just as you start to see Ocean City in the horizon and can

This one's my brother Craig's favorite! It looks amazing in a black frame.Here is an artist statement for you: Mike Budai has art supplies, fancies himself a screenprinter, and lives in Pittsburgh, Pa. He doesn't really sleep a whole lot, drinks way too much coffee, and wastes what little free time he has buying records to add to his already way too large collection. He's made posters for such

The Silent Giants are mysterious fellas indeed. They hail from Michigan, and that's about all I know about them.

Remember those 3-D posters and books that were popular when we were kids? I could never see them...Well, my technique hasn't improved with age. Still can't see it. Darn.But I hear it's awesome! The Half and Half have created a print that is as much fun as it's functional on your walls. Hey, and if you can't see it?

Leia Bell has been one of Screens 'N' Spokes most loyal partners over the past 3 years - she's awesome! We've seen two red bikes - a tricycle and a road bike by the shore - but this year she's going for a pretty shade of green in a sweet close-up. It's still instantly recognizable as Leia's work, and totally great! Green is my favorite color...

I've got a lot of info for you, and I'll try and dole it out as succinctly as possible. First off.... Screens 'N' Spokes 2009 - August 6th, Mugshots Coffeehouse in Fairmount, 7PM.

Last year the Independents Coffee Cooperative asked me to curate a benefit art show about coffee. They were looking to help the Peruvain farms that they work with, and had seen the success of Screens 'N' Spokes the year before. As an avid coffee drinker I jumped at the opportunity. Last June the first Beans and Screens art show opened at Mugshots, and in two weeks we'll open with an entirely

Since Jess announced that we were coming back last week, I thought it only fair that I drop a few morsels of info on Screens 'N' Spokes 2009. I'm really excited about this year's contributing artists. We've worked with a lot of great people over the past two years, and in 2009 we'll be partnering with some of our old friends, and a good many new ones as well.Last year we were all over

The time's almost here, folks - keep your eyes peeled for new prints coming in the next month or so!The theme 0f the art prints this year will be "The Tour" or "The Move" to "Join the Movement." It relates to the MS150 bike tour, or to the music tours that gigposters memorialize...and how these come together to join the movement to end the devastating effects of Multiple Sclerosis.Perhaps it is

This weekend 7,000 riders took to the roads of New Jersey in support of the fight against MS, and Team Screens 'N' Spokes was out in full force. It was the most successful City to Shore Ride yet, and the Greater Delaware Valley Chapter is on pace to raise a record $5 million dollars.I was so impressed with everyone's riding.

Jay Ryan - Chicago, ILLast year Jay pulled together a team of animals from the menagerie in his mind, striving for the finish line. The bear from that print has left his buddies this year, but he sure has gained speed. Determined, and as Jay said, "well-intentioned," it looks like the bear is shooting for light speed. To top it off, the bear is nearly life-sized! Well, almost. The print

strawberryluna - Pittsburgh, PAScreenprinting is often about working with a limited color pallete, and making the final piece greater than the sum of its parts. strawberryluna really brings this to the forefront with her print this year. Utilizing only two colors and some large halftones as a gradient she's able to create a print that appears more complicated than it actually is. These colors

Tim Gough - Philadelphia, PALooks like someone has been monkeying around. Whether its pulling squeegees by hand or tinkering with bikes by feet, Tim is helping us on both fronts this year. He's contributing to the art show, and joining Team Screens 'N' Spokes in this year's City to Shore ride.

Hero Design Studio - Buffalo, NYThe folks behind Hero Design have found a great way to represent the entire ride in one fell swoop. With the sea below, the sky above and the city in between, the bike rider keeps going. I love the colors on this one and overlapping semi-transparent layers give it great textures.

Diana Sudyka - Chicago, ILYup, it is another fantastic Chicago screenprinter. It is a real hotbed over there. Whether she's painting birds for her Tiny Aviary blog, or drawing bicycles, Diana's illustrations are always beautiful. Complete with a shot of metallic inks (that blue/gray color), I think the gearhead/art enthusiasts out there are really going to love this one.

Drew Millward - Leeds, EnglandDrew's totally unique illustrative style caught me off guard the first time I saw his work. He always finds the proper blend of cute and frightening. Who knew that Death rode a girl's bicycle, complete with training wheels and a rainbow basket for his little minions? While many of our prints go for the cute quotient, none have ridden this path.

Judge - Chicago, ILI've been a fan of Judge's work since Jess brought a poster back from a Neko Case show. Her technique using scratchboard doesn't look like anything else in the Screens 'N' Spokes show. One of the things I'm especially excited about are the different angles artists are approaching this year's set of prints. There was Brad Klausen's take on the MS Society slogan, and here

Nick Rhodes - Manchester, EnglandThis Mancunian has been at the forefront of the recent revival in British gig posters. Nick's Screens 'N' Spokes print brings together the biking and art communities perfectly. So many of the artists in the show are admittedly avid bike riders, and here we've got a rider with his tools of the trade, a squeegee strapped to his back, riding to work.

Brad Klausen - Seattle, WashingtonMany people will be familiar with Brad's consistently amazing work for Pearl Jam. The level of thought he puts into his pieces is always apparent, even if you don't actually hear the process from the artist himself, but in this case I'll let Brad's words tell the story:Originally i was going to do a poster involving a bike or two...but then in an email you wrote

Dirk Fowler - Lubbock, TXDirk, the Letterpress wizard, is back with another dynamic, eye-catching design. Dirk has been designing posters on his antique letterpress for years now, and you can spot his unique style from a distance. Always using minimal elements to achieve a greater whole, Dirk has created a print that is sure to jump off the wall.

Guy Burwell - Portland, ORGuy has been one of my favorite artists for a while. I love his completely unique style, and he's created another one of his indelible characters for Screens 'N' Spokes. This young lady is ready to ride. In fact, the Bike MS:City to Shore brings riders of all shapes and sizes, and I wouldn't be surprised to see her on the road this year. These are printed on textured

The Half and Half - Columbia, SCSpeaking of the printing process, The Half and Half may be a young studio, but they are doing some amazing things with ink and squeegee. Their 2008 Screens 'N' Spokes print is an awesome collage printed using a CMYK process. I haven't picked through all the photos that make up the bike but this one definitely deserves a closer look.

Punchgut Studio - Fargo, NDThe man behind Punchgut Studio is a crazy guy, and his art gives you a little peek into his head. You can see it in the eclectic bands he's worked with (from Of Montreal to the Drive-By Truckers to Modest Mouse), and you can especially get a sense in the myriad of styles he uses. Rarely does one Punchgut poster look like the next. Following the twists and turns of

Crosshair - Chicago, ILJess and I had the pleasure of checking out the Crosshair studio while Dan was printing these last week. I've been an admirer of his work for a long time. His ability to turn compelling architectural photographs into screen prints is amazing, and I don't think anyone out there can do color separations like him right now. These prints always need to be seen in person to

I got my bike back from the shop this weekend, so, with a little trepidation, I began my introduction to clipless pedals.All the advice I had received said I was bound to fall a couple times, and that I should practice on grass to get a feel for it. Words of wisdom indeed. I walked my bike over to Prospect Park, clicking my shiny new shoes all the way there.I sought a relatively flat piece of

Riding 20 teammates strong and looking "Professional," as Sutter put it, in our Cricket Press Jersey's, Team Screens 'N' Spokes had a great rookie ride. We could not have had better weather. Clear skies, and mid-70s greeted us on our journey. Plenty of sunshine meant for plenty of ridiculous sun tans, but it also made both days of riding very enjoyable.Thanks to every team mate's excellent job
