Our pals Dre Urhahn and Jeroen Koolhaas (not sure if he’s related to Rem, are you?) are doing great things over in Rio de janeiro these days. Their latest well covered (no pun intend) project is a +2000 square meter painting of a Japanese style river based on a design by master tattooist Rob Admiraal. Dre and Jeroen got together with the kids from the community of Vila Cruzeiro, the most infamous favela project in Rio, to paint the entire thing which will be unveiled October 18th followed by a huge blockparty. Furthermore, the weekend of the 17th til the 19th there will be an opening party which includes a photo exhibition and video installations. more information about this project to be found on the website.

Geoff was Phil’s track student and third pick Blue Ribbon Sports employee who began selling product out the trunk, humble beginnings-style. The rest, as they say, is history. The book “Out of Nowhere: The Inside Story of How Nike Marketed the Culture of Running” provides delightful insights as it takes the reader along in Geoff’s 33 year ride with the company. I haven’t been able to read it yet, but I recommend it anyway!
