About The Radavist

Founded in 2006 by John Watson, The Radavist is the first and longest-running “alt-cycling” website. We’re known for our extensive catalog of Beautiful Bicycles, event Reportage, Framebuilder Shop Visits, and inspiring bicycle touring galleries. Radical + Atavism = Radavist Atavism is a throwback trait in humans, like the innate call to make art or tell tales sitting around a campfire. Add a radical approach to storytelling, a deep love for bicycles, and the people who make cycling culture so engaging, and you get us.
