Houssine and his Fuji.

He cycles like 100 km average per day, as a bike messenger for Urban Cycle . In history, the first bike messenger company in Paris.

Lucky charm card for racer in Japan, old improvised spoke card piece of an alleycat in Switzerland, stickers from Germany, Houssine is second of the Europeen championship sprint in Berlin, in 2009.

Every year, he organises an alleycat in Paris and travels the world as a competitor to challenge other messengers in races, alleycats or main races.
He also rides for Cyclope Bikes & Re Cycle Paris

He arrived in my studio just after a delivery, and we discussed :

he talks with a different point of view, transcends the questions of styles, fixie or not fixie positions. His talk is more humanist, he tells how the bicycle has offered him the chance to meet people, making friends and travelling around the world. That’s why he speaks about a “bicycle familly”.
