I'm 100% sure posting this on Singletrack will have a wide range of comments but here goes 🙂

As Morvélo is a two man band we're always in need of extra people/riders to feature in our increasing amount of photoshoots and videos. We need:

20-30 year old (ish) male and females.
Riders (and their bikes) preferred but non-riders always welcome.
Good looking is always a bonus. As are tattoos.
From Brighton ideally as this is where Morvélo is based.
Payment will be in clothing (tees/jerseys etc) having a good laugh and drinks in a pub after.
Flexible as shoots will more than likely be on a weekday but could be on a weekend depending on the availability of our photographer / videographer.

If you're keen or want to find out more please send pics of yourself (and bike 🙂 to domestique@morvelo.com

Thanks
Oli

CG - No. There's an age limit for this job. Probably a waist size limit and a minimum amount of hair/head coverage too.

Who wants fat, bald old people in their adverts?

😀

I'm old and fat but have a good head of hair, does that count? 😀

Edit: I obviously don't qualify for the cool gang!

I dont have any tattoo's, but if you're after someone who looks "badass", I can raise my middle finger and smoke cigarettes with the best of them. I could also wear a cap backwards aswell.

[i]20-30 year old (ish)[/i]

I'm shocked and amazed that STW hasn't come up with any models (pronounced "modells") yet...

Have you [i]seen[/i] the mugshots thread? 😯

[edit]oh hang on, one of the nippers has piped up...

aye, mrsconsequence is in right age group.. not visibly tattooed if wearing riding clothing but brightly coloured hair, slim, symmetrical face so not too shabby looking.

i wont do topless personally, but mrsconsequence is more daring than myself.

any excuse to be near brighton is welcome as my tattooist lives down there 😀

EDIT - is bike type/make/colour important? i.e full suss for DH style clothing type thinking

Who wants fat, bald old people in their adverts?

My favourite bike ad of all time was for Orange bikes, not sure exactly how long ago it was but could well be twenty years. It featured an old fella who may also have been bald but was definitely not fat riding whatever they were trying to sell that year, probably a clockwork. In my then 20something eyes the fella looked to be in his 60's and I remember thinking I've got years to enjoy this bike riding malarkey.

Despite me no longer liking the look of orange bikes I'll always have a soft spot for the brand partly on the strength of that ad.

If the job was for Time Team you'd be well sorted.

Or, if you need someone in their fifties...broken nose....shaven legs...miles written on the face, then give me a shout.

pic is stolen from whistler, camelbak and baggies are about the only way to ride there, its hot\bike breaking enough to need tools\water without going back to the chalet every time. didn't realise it was a fashion faux par :S I'd taken my bar-ends off especially.. its robbed for this thread because I can't get onto fb to find the ones my mate took instead

I do need to work on my style though, years of ****ting my knees on the toptube has meant that I never feel comfy leaning my upper knee in. Mind you, if you think that looks awkward, you should see me do 1 footers 😯

I vote for ourkidsam too.

Don't worry c_g I've done quite a bit of mtb modelling with nbt and we're well over the age limit.

It's not all glamour though. It's usually riding the same piece of trail over and over until the light/focus/camera angle/inquisitive cow is right (in the case of the cow out of the way).

the lack of responses is clearly due to the fact that the south is full of munters!! get thee up past the services at stafford (official start of the north) and you'll be falling over the fittees
