About: I joined the gang at Gear Patrol because I believe that as men we often settle for less than the very best lifestyle we can attain. It’s been ingrained into our psyches to forgo certain products, services or lifestyles because they don’t fall within some antiquated male paradigm. Bunk. It’s time as men to stand up and redefine what’s rightfully ours. Much of what I have learned to this end has come through advice from guys who had the experiences and knowledge I was seeking. My only regret was not learning it sooner. Now I feel it’s my obligation to pass along what I know. I’m not saying I have all the answers but I’m happy to share what I’ve learned so far. On a more personal level, I live an active lifestyle and focus on my health and wellness as a means to sustain the frenetic pace. I also suffer from a case of golf-itis and spend a lot of my free time perusing that passion… ok, obsession. I aim to incorporate relevant fitness and golf content into Gear Patrol’s expanding coverage of all things male. Like the rest of the crew I can’t stand over-hyped, under-performing products. None of that crap will be perpetuated here.See Authors Posts (71) on Thursday, 25 Jun, 2009 – 16:30 | 5 Comments

About: “There Ain’t No Way to Hide Your Lyin Eyes.” That song is playing on the radio right now. I don’t like it, but I know it—from when I was a kid 20 years ago. I think it played on the car stereo sometimes when we were going on family holidays to the north east coast of Australia or something. Now it’s playing while I’m at work. It’s the kind of song (and radio station) that doesn’t offend anyone in my communal office. I don’t mind stuff like that, ’cause if there were pumping tunes, they’d distract me from my grueling tasks. I used to lecture Sydney’s wasted youth about the academic importance of the movies, but now I write about hair. My new surfboard is right here on the ground, next to my desk. It’s in a new cover: a “slim fit.” It’s svelte, like a compact attaché case full of weapons or money. I think that, as I grab the cover’s handle and carry my light 5?11 to the car at the end of the day towards the long drive through the tolls and down the tunnel and past the beach, back to my house on a crowded street in Bondi.See Authors Posts (5) on Wednesday, 24 Jun, 2009 – 16:52 | One Comment

There’s a guy that I occasionally bump into in the street who finishes every sentence by saying, “…you know what I mean?” It drives me crazy. I find myself thinking, “No, I don’t know what …

Every generation has its defining crisis, a moment in history where hostile elements are tensely opposed to the max and shit’s going down one way or the other. As you can imagine, for each circumstance …
