It was a real privilege to work with photographer David Eberts for the Marinoni poster shoot. | Some of the more quiet images now stand out as being the most evocative. |

But there's no denying that nothing is hotter than a hot flame. | And nothing cooler than a finished frame wondering what color it will end up. |
Throughout the day Marinoni wondered: "why all these photos, and why the glasses?" | We told him: "why not?" |
Cycling legend Jocelyn Lovell rode like the wind with Marinoni's creation. It was delivered to Lovell at 12pm, and at 4pm he was Canadian Champion, with his best time ever. | Glasses off, Marinoni holds his most cherished creation. |
It's with this bike that Marinoni chose to challenge the world hour record for his age group - as a homage to his friend and fellow athlete Jocelyn Lovell. | After over 40 years of building frames, Marinoni says he's still improving. |
He also says he can't do better than the 100% he gives every day. | Marinoni says there's nothing like the joy of finishing a bike and standing back to admire it. |
It was amazing to see Marinoni at work, and to learn that when you start welding a frame, you essentially can't stop until it's done. | We were told numerous times that it was very stressful having us there taking pictures of him. |
Marinoni eventually realized that it's also a lot of work taking pictures. | After over 1000 photos taken, Marinoni said he looked up wondering: "when is this going to end?" |
And voila! That's how you capture a cycling icon for a movie poster! |
