Had a quick blast on this bespoke cargo-bike but with no “load” unfortunately. Loved the ride and handling of the naked bike.
As a huge Amnesia fan I always looked forward to Soma. I've waited too long to play it, but I've finally got around it. Such great atmosphere.

The Four Wheels (later the Boys Next Door) were a great 1960s band from Indianapolis, Indiana. Original paper sleeve from Soma Records of Minneapolis.
Down Tube Shifters! Light and accurate.
Our buddy John G. has ridden a DoubleCross across the country twice.
Soma calls it dark brown, while Target calls it burnt orange. In other words, little did I know the bar tape I just ordered from SOMA is the exact same color as my bed sheets.
the b-side can be many things, but it is not a snow bike. though that doesn't stop me from trying...

The famous Backwaters in Kerala, South India are water bodies formed by the backward flow of seawater due to an obstruction in the natural current.
Kerala backwaters are blessed with immense beauty and provides for a relaxing atmosphere. The ecosystem of the backwaters combines that of freshwater as well as that of the sea. It supports a large variety of flora and fauna such as frogs, fishes, crabs, mudskippers, otters etc. Along the length of the backwaters, one could see a close up of life in rural Kerala.
The idyllic Soma Kuttanad Resort is the place to see the backwaters in all its glory. Here, by the pristine beauty of the emerald green waters of the waterways, rejuvenate your body and soul with authentic Ayurveda and Yoga.
The waterfront property of the resort is located in Alleppey which is also known as the Venice of the east for its famed backwaters. One can explore the magical region on houseboats which pamper you with exotic food and luxury. Laid back, the resort has independent villas and well appointed rooms.

Richard Whiteley (Australian, b. 1963)
Made in Australian Capital Territory, Canberra, Australia in 2008
2010.6.18
Richard Whiteley’s sculptures are hybrids of the expected and the unexpected: there is geometry and abstraction, but there are also elements of nature. The metaphysical undercurrent in his work relates it to the dramatic geometric cast glass sculptures of the Czech artists Stanislav Libenský and Jaroslava Brychtová. But his forms—the result of years of experimentation and development—are distinctive and unique. Soma, from the Greek word meaning “body,” represents relationships that may be interpreted as theoretical, physical, or spiritual. Since 2002, Whiteley has been the head of the internationally recognized glass program at the School of Art of the Australian National University in Canberra. A graduate of the School of Art, he came to the United States for his graduate studies in glass at the University of Illinois, Urbana–Champaign. Whiteley’s early training in stained glass inspired him to become involved in glass sculpture, and this training is reflected in his ability to modulate light and color within the architectonic structures of his sculptures, which are monumental and complex in their layering, folding, and wrapping. Whiteley’s works in glass have a strong sense of presence, artistic authority, and a unity of concept and material.
The Corning Museum of Glass was founded in 1951 by Corning Glass Works (now Corning Incorporated) as a gift to the nation for the company's 100th anniversary. The not-for-profit museum is dedicated to the art, history and science of single material--glass--and currently has a collection of more than 50,000 glass objects, some more than 3,500 years old. The original museum was housed in a low, glass-walled building designed by Harrison & Abramovitz in 1951. Gunnar Bikerts' biomorphic, modernist addition expanded the museum's exhibition space when the now 68,000-square-foot museum opened to the public in 1980.
