ABOUT ZLOG

aboutzlog-photo

Zlogblog is a Seattle based online cultural blog updated daily. Established in 2008 by Zach Hoffner, 24, it began as a personal blog but rapidly became a bike blog, fixed specific, informing visitors of what was happening, bike wise, in the Northwest USA and essentially putting Seattle on the map. Inspired by Dustin Klein of Cadence’s monthly cycling event ‘Fast Friday’, which showcased Seattle’s talented riders. Hoffner soon became emerged in the Seattle bike scene and continually exposed it on his blog.

Coming from a background in graphic design and t-shirt design Hoffner set up his label ‘Zlog’ in 2009 which covers apparel and accessories, he is now expanding into more bike related products.
