When asked “Why astronauts?” Troy explained, “I was out on a few night MTB rides with full moons. We were talking about the Apollo 11 moon mission while looking up at the sky on those rides, just dreaming. We finished the ride up in town with some good drinks with friends, and I started concepting the flaming eyeball characters we’ve done for years, but I put a Cosmic spin on them. It all looked really cool on helmets and gear, so why not put it on a bike ?”
