Intersection: Cars Now!
I've shot a few things for Intersection Magazine in the past and when they asked me if I wanted to shoot the new Ferrari FF last summer for their new Taschen book collaboration, of course I said yes! It finally came out and it looks awesome in its 512 pages of glory. I have photos of the Ferrari and of a Camaro inside and the rear cover is also my photo.

My dad is an American!
My dad, Armin, became an American citizen yesterday!!!! He moved here from Germany 35+ years ago and has always talked about doing it. I'm super stoked for him. If any one calls him Sauerkraut one more time and he'll probably knock you out.
Welcome to America Dad!

The Fear
I've been working on lots of project the last year and this is one that I am especially proud of. It was written and directed by my good friend Benjamin Bertucci and I was the DP on it. Somehow Ben got me to "act" in it as well. I hope you all enjoy.

There are two very scary bills being brought through the House (Stop Online Piracy Act)and Senate (PROTECT IP Act). There is tons of backing from Hollywood, its unions, drug companies, and the Chamber of Commerce, it has the potential to pass. I urge you to read up on it, contact your local Representative, and sign the petitions. Follow the link below.
Thank you.

Day 25- Sacramento to Los Angeles.
390 miles.
End of the road.
Today was our last day. We left the Motel 6 early, there were beer cans strewn about from last nights parties. We loaded up and Rudi noticed that someone had stolen his left sidecover, the broken one, with the shitty Cartoon Network sticker. What dicks.
We took the 99 all the way back because the 5 is awful and we didn't have enough time to do Highway 49. It was pretty uneventful and kind of solemn, our epic journey was coming to an end. We grabbed lunch in Traver and split off shortly after, I cried a little bit and wished we could do this forever.
The rest of the ride was lonely and hot. I stopped for an iced beverage at the always packed Starbucks at the bottom of the Grapevine and continued my last leg.
I hit reserve coming down the Grapevine, but I didn't want to stop for gas. I have a 2 gallon reserve and wasn't worried, I had 80 miles to go. As I got into LA I could feel the cooler air, I also felt my bike dying. I ran out of gas! Luckily I was near the Hollywood Bowl, so I coasted into its driveway and used my spare 2 liters of fuel that I had carried on my entire trip. 5 more miles and I was home.

Day 25- Sacramento
We're all in Sacramento for the Landsquids moped rally and so far it's off to a great start. We ate breakfast and headed to the River to enjoy some sun and fun. The Landsquids really outdid themselves and built a massive waterslide into the river. It was so awesome.
After the hanging at the River all day we brought the party back to our hotel pool and continued to get wavy.
We finished the night off with a party at someone's garage. Rudi showed up from Tahoe and we crashed out early to get a nice start for tomorrow.

Day 24- Tahoe to Sacramento
240 miles.
Zach and I left Tahoe in the morning and headed along Donner Lake and up old Highway 40. Such a fun rode that I finally got to ride a motorcycle on. We rode together to Grass Valley and then split off, I was heading to Chico to hang out with Chris Canterbury from Eurotech and Zach was heading to the Landsquids moped rally, I'd meet up there later that night.
I found some super fun backroads from Grass Valley to Oroville, they were super steep and twisty, it was like being on a roller coaster. When I got to Chico I saw my first In N Out since leaving on my trip, I had to smash a cheeseburger.
I rolled up to Eurotech and met Chris. I changed into some street clothes and we headed down the street to the Sierra Nevada Brewery. It was awesome there and I got to try some beers that never make it into stores outside of Chico. His wife Rebecca and daughter Emi showed up as well. We headed over to his shop and got to see some of the great stuff he's working on when he's not at Eurotech, custom Beemer stuff http://boxermetal.com/.
We sat around and shot the shit for awhile, but eventually I had to leave and head to Sacramento to rage with my friends.
I suited up and said farewell, I know I'll be seeing the Canterbury family many more times in the future, they're awesome.
I met up with everyone at the bar in Sacramento around 10pm, it was great to see my gang, The Latebirds and so many other familiar and friendly faces. I went to my hotel, unloaded, and headed back to the bar. Ann and Ben arrived at the hotel around 2am from LA, so we continued the party into the wee hours.
Top of Highway 40. Donner Lake.
Mini bike side hack.
I believe this is an Airhead frame, Oilhead engine and drivetrain, and a K front end. Frankenbike!
Chris' sweet ride.
