Thanks for all of the cycling tips! Riding in this cool fall weather has been a great way to decompress and clear my head. One of the standout gear recs from you all was Ornot, an independent cycling brand in San Francisco focused on quality materials and minimal branding. I picked up a bunch of their gear and connected with Matt (the founder). Was cool to find out that he and I have shared similar paths of building a brand over the past decade.

Here are 5 things I'm currently digging...
1.
I really want to visit the New York Sign Museum next time I'm in the city. It's a nonprofit run by Noble Signs dedicated to preserving signs from the New York area and keeping the craft alive. Watching people hand paint signs is one of those things that I'll never get tired of. 😍
2.
I just got this cool little e-ink device called TRMNL. It's a simple, customizable dashboard that can display whatever info you want to keep front and center (weather, calendar, stats, etc.) It's meant to be passive and distraction-free as opposed to a device you interact with like an iPad. And it's open source so the possibilities are endless, especially if you like to tinker with code. (full disclosure: Ryan sent me one to play around with and gave me a $15 off link to share with you all)
3.
How Did the World Get So Ugly? is a fascinating mini-doc. Really well-produced and kinda crazy this level of content is free to watch.

This upside down hotel and spa in the Dolomites is pretty trippy 🙃
