Fresh

Last Spring we sent a unicycle to Mike Parenteau in Nelson B.C.
Check out what he's doing with it.
(watch it at least half way through)

Oh yeah, he's only 16!! Kid's got some skills.
We did some riding in Nelson this past summer, and it was tough on 2 wheels. It's hard to believe how well he rides it on 1!

Summer Time

Here's a couple of shots from our trip to Kananaskis Country in Alberta. K Country is just south of Banff, it's just as beautiful and no one's there! Alpine ridgelines, and fast descents.


We'll be back. It helps that Mary-Anne's folks are only 1/2 hour away!

We're busy moving the shop right now, if you need to reach us do so by email. We'll try to get back to you as soon as we can.
It's a challenge moving and producing frames at the same time, but we're trying. To those who are waiting, we appreciate your patience (seriously) please let us know if there's any problems.

Jamboree

sign stolen from
Church of the Sweet Ride


The 9th annual County Line Jamboree came and went. It was a beautiful day, and 70 plus people once again subjected themselves to the 40 miles of road
train tracks
and beach.


It feels more like 60. We're not sure how many people finished, but we did see some really tired folks dragging themselves to the Pajaro river. Which is sort of the point.
The beach is deceptively hard, by the time you reach the end of the 20 miles of track, you have this false sense that the beach will give you the break you so want, but it just gets harder! It all comes down the beach.

Jeff and Curtis finally found the perfect gear, and smoked nearly everyone.


Except for Smiling George Hope, who was the fastest man for the second year in a row!


Kathleen "Hard as Nails" Hannon was the fastest lady of the day.

Good times, see you all next time.
