An afternoon in Denpasar

An afternoon in Denpasar
As my unplanned arrival at a motorcycle show about a moth ago dropped me in the thicket of local bike building and culture, I decided to return this month to see whats what going down in our capital city. I met a friend at a neutral location and he lead me deep into the side streets and shortcuts, after a few lefts and rights and a lot of one way loops, we were there. The sun was shining and the crowds were out, the whole joint was packed with people hustling and bustling, going about their Sunday afternoon. A fun packed afternoon ensued, entertained by the likes of 'lowrider agility contests' and some of the local kids hitting' the quarter pipe on their BMX''s. Good bikes, good crowd, good times. Already have the next month's event penciled in my schedule! Speaking of schedule's, make sure you have Sunday the 14th of November clear as Deus Temple of Enthusiasm Canggu will be holding its first ever swapmeet. The day is not to be missed, everything Deus will come together for a day of swappin', music, and lighthearted debauchery. A lot of our friends from around Bali will be coming down as well, offering a huge range of sweet stuffs for your pleasure. Custom motorcycles, Bicycles, vintage clothing, new and used surfboards, Art…you name it and you'll find it in our back yard. Participants who have already booked themselves along for the ride include: Pressban, Bomba, The Bike Shop, Andrew Wellman art…Oh and did I forget to mention that there will be a sale on all Deus clothing, 50% off, cant complain about that!

On the edge of Harajuku, a bold new sign has risen - The Residence of Impermanence - in Harajuku, Tokyo, is back. Art, surfboards, motorcycles, apparel, café, music - a place where all kinds of enthusiasms collide. Step inside to the Deus Café - a breezy open ceiling space, serving all-day breakfast and the perfect energy for every moment. We're not ones to argue with that. Climb the spiral staircase to surfboards quietly lined against a softly lit backdrop.

Shaped exclusively for the Residence by Takuya “Tappy” Yoshikawa, Tetsuya Ogawa, and Jared Mell, each board is one of a kind. Sofas once beloved at the former Harajuku store — crafted by TRUCK Furniture and Stephen Kenn — have been reupholstered and brought to life for their next chapter. They’ll take on new character with time — just like this place. We invite you to settle in and enjoy the flow.

Same name. New form. The spirit remains, just slightly rearranged. Come in, stay awhile. Find us at 2-32-5 Jingumae, Shibuya-Ku, BPR Square Jingumae 1-1F & 2F Tokyo.

In Benzin Veritas!
