« North American Handmade Bike Show | Main | SHOP'S BACK...!!! »

Well, our online shop CRASHED...

We're working on restoring it, but it may be a few days. In the meantime, you can always call and find out what we have in stock.

We are also just get settled after getting back from Portland and the Handbuilt Bike Show. I'll put some photos in the rest of this post. Portland was a blast - they have the highest cycle commuter ratio of any major city in the states, and they've developed a really comprehensive bike route system. We spread out - Kyle drank coffee, Omar shot pictures, and I went mountain biking. It was a blast!

This is the bike that generated the most interest: lock hole in the top tube, a cool bar-stem combo, eccentric rear dropouts, and a neat seatstay-seat tube connector. It also won a few awards at the show.

I got a chance to talk to Alexis Dold of Villin Cycles.

Sycip had a cool "bar" bike with beer taps as shifters.

Land Shark had an interesting seatstay design on his track offering, and the ever-famous rad paintjob was on it, too.

Rock Lobster showed up and impressed everyone with beautiful bicycles from Santa Cruz.

Of course, Independent Fabrications had a stunning bike with some incredible artwork and a killer paintjob.

And we had a near miss with the po-po in Weed, CA - we rolled into town at 4:20a.m., bro.

I'll throw some more shots into the next post...
