All the way long from Japan, through Germany and Peru. The Frame finally came back to Berlin a few days ago for the High-End process. It means, that we have applied a solid compound of Glossy Clear Lacquer over the Artwork for a better durability. Normally this product is used to protect car parts…This time we will try it with some BMX Flatland Abuse! Have a look to the Gallery!

The idea has begun, the last time, that I have visited Peru. Together with good friend and Urban artist Seimiek from Lima, we have decided to do a collaboration artwork, that joins urban art and sport. So, what better that use the frame of my bike to represent it! After our first test with the Blitz frame a few months ago, trying to find the best way to apply the right technique, colors, and design, we have got the first version: “The Blaue Blitz”.
For this Second time, we are using “The LASH” , the new BMX Flatland frame of Autum Bicycles from Germany. We have improved some stuff to get a better result with the paint durability and also the design. This paint artwork is called: “LIMÅ IN FLÅMMEN” (english: Flames). Under this tittle, our idea is to join both cities, Lima: where I grew up and Berlin: where I live and ride BMX. That’s how we have chosen the colors of the sunset in Lima and the head of a Berliner Bear, the symbol of the German Capital, to represent this connection between both places.
We will keep posting more pictures of the Hand Made process in Lima, and then follow the Frame in its way back to Germany for the End process in Berlin. Here the first pictures from Peru.

After 24 days around Japan, finally I come back home and start to process all the material, that I got from this trip. Many adventures and new experiences with friends & colleagues from all around the world.
The trip has begun in Tokyo, just after the Taifun hit Japan. First days together with the 430 crew and some peruvian – japanese Childhood friends. Then continue to Kobe for Flat Ark Contest, big event in japan for sure!
Come back to Tokyo, take more footage and do a funny demo in a discotheque in Shibuya with 430 Crew. Finally headed to Makuhari Messe for Cycle Mode International bike trade show to do demos and workshops together with Jykk Japan Team. Mainly I spent the whole day riding Bmx or doing something related to Bmx freestyle, taking pics, filming around the city or meeting new people.
Good Times in Japan!

This Month is running the 23th edition of Espoo CINÉ International Film Festival in Finland. As a part of the BIKE SHORTS selection, our film: Camilo Gutierrez Autum(n) will be screened at 21th of August. If you are around, don’t miss the chance to watch really good Bicycle movies and of course some of the best european Films!
As soon as I came back to Berlin, I have received the new stuff of Autum Bicycles for this year. I really wanted to change a few parts and try to do my Bike a little bit lighter, so since a few months I have been collecting some parts, from different travels, specially the ones that are difficult to find in Europe. Have a look! for more details and pictures visit my Bike Check at Autum Bicycles website.
