Australian Infront

Stoked about my new local hangout! Not only is it a one stop pit stop for fixed gear and single speed paraphernalia, but it's also a stones throw from the best coffee in town!

What's particularly impressive is that owner Dylan Phillips seems to have focused his entire brand around the precision execution of a low-cost, homemade aesthetic, which he has pulled together with much class - on a little budget might I add.

Almost every square inch of his pint sized store is a bi-product of a preloved era in fashion, furniture or materials - a true testament that dreams are coming true for those daring enough to quit the rat race.

With a successful launch this past Friday, the store is now primed to inspire and foster a growing fixed gear culture here on the Sunshine Coast. An inspiring case-study which I intend to keep an eye on. Best of luck to anyone with the balls to start their own company/small business.

If you're ever on the Sunshine Coast, be sure to pop into Soignuer [Swan-yeah] and say G'day to Dylan and his team.

Finally - kudos to Dan Pedler: the plugger sporting champion of the Soignuer annual roller race!
