Tony Pizzo


“Sailor Tony Pizzo passing through Washington on a Coast to Coast bicycle run handcuffed to his machine. The Handcuffs were sealed by Mayor Hylan in New York April 24th and are not to be opened until his return to that city. Pizzo made the trip from California to New York in like manner in 1919.” -A.P.

Michael Jordan's Eddy Merckx


'MJ had a go at everything. Baseball, Golf and as it turns out - cycling. This is a 70cm Eddy Merckx corsa extra - obviously in red as per his Chicago team colours - I heard he had a white bike for away games.'

officially up and running ;)


I was growing up in Yokohama and Okayama Japan.
I spent my early time in Japanese dance culture, went to club in Tokyo and NY in early~mid 90’, and decided to move to NYC in 1998.
I just dreamed to be a New Yorker.
After moved into NYC, I aimed to be a true New Yorker through the experience of the bicycle messenger.
It took 5 years to be a real NYC bicycle messenger for me, but still could not become a true New Yorker.
I felt that I lacked something, but I did not know what exactly that something was.
I was wondering if art might supplement that lack, so.. I got into photography, and another dream rose up, “I want to be a photographer”.

My blog, New York Bike Dreams, that original idea was my message, “I want to be a photographer”.
After few years, fortunately my dream become half true.
Now I can say “I am New Yorker”.
To achieve my another half dream become true, I set my photography aim.
So I try to step up my blog, this is my first portfolio.
And when I achieve that aim, I will say “Yo, I Am Photographer”.

The show must go on..

Tweed Run General Store



Tweed Run General Store (part of Wild Life Taylor), is devoted to Tweed styles for the well-dressed gentlemen – perhaps one who is ready to go off on a Tweed Bicycle Run or Tweed Ride?! These photos were taken in December when lots of festivities and parties happened at the shop...

“Shosuke Ishizu, one of the patriarchs of Ivy Style in Japan, was on hand to be an unofficial participant in a talk show. A host of gentlemen enjoyed themselves at a party held afterward.”-- via Rei Shito
