maybe ill convince him to write articles but i’ll give it the SaRcAsTiC SpOnGeBoB treatment before going to print.
Anyone else remember the correct phrasing for ‘our international team of experts are here to tell you your bike sucks’?
Your bike sucks and we have a team of experts working around the clock to prove it.
I’ve already pre-ordered.
I need some better Live Love Laugh typefaces.
You could always call it Bicycle Publication or Bicycle Pub. for shorter.
Consider using a computer and printer to make it easier

In my head
I could write up my experience at Yamaguchi frame building school - he had so many fascinating anecdotes, it was an amazing experience.
For additional flavor, it was in Rifle, Colorado, the same city that Boebert had that ‘Shooter’s Grill’ - i.e Hooters with guns - and some of the locals were wild when they figured out I was from Cali.
im officially green-lighting all requests for content in here.
your chances of being published are like 99.99%.
My 2024 resolution was to try at least one new fruit each month. I can contribute fruit reviews
but i have so little.
It can be a spot the fake game.
I know one of the guys behind this comix anthology if you want to do newsprint: https://www.scarfff.com/
Or thinking photocopy vibes? If so, I will contribute photocopied images of things I’ve found outside on the ground, leaves, bugs, flowers, small sticks, coins, broken glass, etc
Yamaguchi school content submitted.
That’s a signal for other people to get off yer butts and submit cool stuff.
well i think im going for more photocopy vibes, and i would like for it to be easily mailed. whats the smallest size publication you’d want? is 5.5x8.5 the smallest, or could i go microzine and do a 4.25x5.5"?
16pg 5.5x8.5 means i could fit it all on a 11x17" document and then fold, trim and stitch all myself. also debating between color or black and white, BW would make it dirt cheap to make but i could get somewhere like fedex office to make 11x17 full color prints for like $1.50 a piece.
