At Alley Cat Bikes & Coffee cyclist Laurens ten Dam often enjoys a cup of coffee, more specifically an espresso macchiato. His first bike, a steel fixed gear is currently in the shop to be displayed. As I was doing the photography project ‘The Craft of Coffee’ in assignment of Alley Cat, I thought it would be nice to combine cycling and coffee in a photo as both components lay at core of Alley Cat. That’s how I created this photo ‘Tools of Cycling’ with help of Laurens ten Dam’s old fixed gear bike.
