DERAILED COUTURE
#1 DERAILED COUTURE, LET YOUR STYLE TELL YOUR STORY

#58 VALIDATED
- TJ
- It is not something I needed or something I was looking for. But I think being validated is universally acknowledged as being rewarding. Something you have been working on, something you have been striving to...
#97 THEY ARE ALL GONE, LIKE GONE, GONE
- TJ
- THEY ARE ALL GONE, LIKE GONE, GONE I don’t see them anymore. I have gone from seeing hundreds and hundreds of them a day to ZERO. …Cyclists wearing ‘The Kit.’ Them. I was on the...
#96 CYCLING IS STUCK
- TJ
- I get frustrated with the ‘Cycling World.’ This is not something new. You have read some of my posts. I have been this way for years. I am trying to think of a better way...
#95 BEING HUMBLED
- TJ
- OMG I love to be humbled. It is one of my favourite things. Humbled in an internal way. I am the only one who knows. Nobody else has a clue. It is just me. I...
#94 JACQUEMUS
- TJ
- I did not find Jacquemus. Jacquemus found me. Through experience, I have found that this is always the best way. I love when things ‘find you.’ It was simple. A post on Instagram. It was...
#93 CHERRY LA
- TJ
- I love to pay attention to style when I travel. What they are wearing in a different country. What they are wearing in a different city. It is not always a different country. It can...
#92 THE DOWNTOWN THING
- TJ
- I did the ‘Downtown thing’ for a while. Perhaps a little longer than I wanted. Perhaps a little longer than I should have. But I did it. No regrets. Zero. Met some great people. Had...
#91 …AND YOU ARE THE AUTHOR
- TJ
- There is this ‘thing’ I read about now and then. How someone can send a message with the outfit they have chosen to wear. I find it fascinating. For sure it can be done by...
#90 IT BODES WELL
- TJ
- I am a fan of Jeff Goldblum. I try and see every film he is in. The films never disappoint. He never disappoints. If you want a good one, ‘The Grand Budapest Hotel.’ He seems...
#89 LAYERED
- TJ
- I came home late last night in a pair of shorts and a T-shirt. I went out this morning, still in shorts, but in a warm hoodie over a white T-shirt. It is coming up...
#88 ALL LINED UP
- TJ
- I am aware of something. ‘All Lined Up’ #1 This is a great song from the past. Shriekback #2 Something about myself. I like things to be ‘All Lined Up.’ Everything in order. Everything in...
DERAILLEUR
THERE IS ANOTHER WAY TO RIDE
- admin
- No matter what you do, there are rules, formalities, etiquette, and customs. They are there to show you ‘how things are done.’ But ‘how things are done’ can change and should change. No sport in...

I AM GOING DOWN
- TJ
- It is that time of year again. I am still riding the routes I have been riding all summer. Still riding as long. Still riding as far. Dressing warmer. Keeping an eye on the fast-changing...
THE DISPROPORTIONATE RIDE
- TJ
- The name I have for a particular ride. The ride where the time riding is shorter than the time cleaning up. Mathematically, it would look like this. TIME RIDING < TIME CLEANING = THE DISPROPORTIONATE...
LEMON AIDED
- TJ
- I am not sure about something. Do I ride because I love to ride, or do I ride because I love the things that ‘happen’ when I ride? The things that have nothing to do...
…NOTHING
- TJ
- I have a personal rule when I am on my bike. I do not say hello to someone if I pass them. But I give a huge hello to someone who passes me. There could...
MATIN OU APRÈS MIDI
- TJ
- I love a good beach holiday. There is one part of the day that I ensure I am on the beach. Settled in. Drinks. Book. Friend. Friends. Snacks. 4:00 PM to 7:30 PM It...
BREAKING CHARACTER
- TJ
- I have some good friends. None of them ride. I mean, they have bikes and all, but they don’t ride, ride. They love one specific thing I do. I do too. It makes them laugh,...
SURPLUS VALUE
- TJ
- Five minutes after I get up in the morning, I put on music. Five minutes before I go to bed at night, I turn it off. Once or twice during the day, I do turn...
SURROUNDING ME WITH BEAUTY
- TJ
- There is something to be said about riding this time of year. It is the second week of October, and I can feel it. Better still, see it. It seems like last week that I...
LOVE LOCKS
- TJ
- LOVE LOCKS Here I go again. Asking the same question I have started many posts with. Do I ride because I love to ride, or do I ride because I love the things that happen...
HEINZ 57
- TJ
- I worked on the farm for most of my school summers. It was ‘hell’ then, but today I look back on it as ‘heaven.’ It was hard work. I have some great memories. There were...
RIDING WITH THE ‘CLICK’
- TJ
- This is going to be a tricky one to ask. Okay, I am just going to ask it. Is talking about bikes boring? ‘Ho Hum.’ Tedious. I don’t mean the rides. I can talk about...
