DERAILED COUTURE
#1 DERAILLEUR AESTHETIC, DRESS CONFIDENTLY. RIDE BOLDLY. RIDE YOU.
- TJ

#121 YOU DO NOT KNOW THE NAME OF THE STORE
- TJ
- It happens when you do not expect it to. You are not even shopping. You are just doing your thing. Riding from ‘A’ to ‘B.’ Or simply out for a ride. You are at a...
#120 THIS IS ALL I WANT
- TJ

#119 BUT IF YOU WANT A BREATH OF FRESH AIR?
- TJ
- I am not sure what kind of relationship you have with Instagram. I try and keep mine as ‘healthy’ as possible. Know when to visit and know when to leave. Keep it at arm’s length....

- TJ
- It is an art. It takes lots of time and effort to master. Things do not have to be done fast. Everything is not a race. It is a hard mindset to get out of....
#117 BUY BETTER, BUY LESS
- TJ
- I hold off now. I used to find something in a store I liked, and five minutes later, I was walking out the door with it. It was the same with online. Come across something...
#116 A PRIVATE ACT OF SELF-RESPECT

#115 THE ONE

- Do you know what I love the most about layering? Well, first off, it is one of my favourite things to do. Secondly, you cannot go wrong. There is no right way. There is no...
#113 SAVES
- TJ
- I do this thing on Instagram. I save lots of posts. But I forget that I do. Then one day, I save something and remember that I do. What awaits me is, well, lots of...
#112 I Have is This Thing for Designers Who Can Stay Ahead of the Game…Since 1911
- TJ
- It is funny how you come across things. Not necessarily you finding them. More, they finding you. Not small things, really big things. Things that you say to yourself, ‘How did I not know of...
#111 IF YOU LOVE IT, BUY IT. IF YOU BUY IT, LIVE IN IT.
- TJ
- I start lots of posts with something I heard. Something I read. Something someone casually says. Kind of ‘Off the cuff.’ But it resonates. I go back and watch it again. I go back and...
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...

WHEN I RIDE, I AM SWIMMING
- TJ

NO REACTION
- TJ
- Newton’s Third Law of Motion. ‘For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.’ I am going to prove him wrong. It is not necessarily that I want to prove him wrong. It is...

OFFLINE ALGORITHM
- TJ
- This is really cool. This is really cool because it really works. Profoundly. The reason I know it works? I did it. I was the ‘Lab Rat.’ I don’t need to get into explaining...
NEXT TIME
- TJ
- My bike makes a different sound. It seems to be a sound that dogs pick up on. Dogs seem to have a way of picking up on odd things. It is something I have been...
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...
ON MY DRESSER
- TJ
- I like how certain things stand out in your memory. Things that you will never forget. The smallest ones are usually the best. Pack the most punch. You have the complete visual. Where it was....
POINT OF SAIL
- TJ
- It is windy where I ride. Pretty well every day there is a good wind. I have one little advantage. I sail. A small, fast, wet, and exhilarating one. One that if you have a...
GOOD WITH YOURSELF
