ZPG's newest homepage – Oct., 2008

I’ve changed things up… spiced up ZPG’s homepage, cleaned up the about page, and gotten rid of superfluous stuff like BLING, and GP, and boring verbs.
The new index is sleek and mysterious, and has a typo in it. Ugh.

The last index was soooo cool, right? Yeah, yeah. I don’t even have those jeans anymore. Or [...]

He got a rousing cheer, because was introducing the Bicycle Film Festival, in a city that loves biking.
Now Puma’s got some awesome cycling-related [...]
