Well, looks like things are calming down after the custom bicycle show in San Diego. I would like to thank Brian Baylis for putting on another ( the third year ) kick ass show making me want to go back next year....
I keep under the radar most of the time and wander the shows without anyone knowing, so it was kinda weird having a booth and getting to meet everyone and see the response to my projects and my efforts. Thanks to everyone that stopped by the booth and let me know how much they enjoy the blog, only makes me want to post more stuff and build more rad stuff... ( like I tell everyone sorry I can't post everything here - only about 10% of the stuff I build gets posted due to security reason)
So here was the run down
We left ASAP to get there by Thursday morning and made it at 2pm due to having to stop by Cranky's bike shop and also Golden Saddle in LA to drop off racks and pick up my Penny Farthing.
As soon as I got everything locked in at the show, I made some rounds and started picking on Soulcraft's Sean, Stevil and Mo. I was off to LA to party and for a business meeting with a big bicycle company.
Running on no sleep for days, I made it back to San Diego for a solid day of tradeshowing on Friday.

the penny, gravity bike, the beach cruzer and the guard dog Poe
on set up day which was already busy at the booth
Had lunch later in the day with writer Patrick from Red Kite Prayer and the crew, good times...
Friday night Jim decided to pass out at my booth
Ok, Peter at Cane Creek, I think that counts at a logo hit on my blog..... Pay up!
Saturday started strong with a race between Soulcraft and Monkey Likes Shiny
the Wizard Staff comp.
You might need to look at this blog for the results...
thanks to Kyle from Tracko for the photo at a highlight in the day
Saturday night was off the hook with the alway super rad party at velo cult bike shop
followed by Paul from Paul and I shutting down the bar. After splitting off from everyone and riding for a while I found myself here......
with a beach cruzer chained to my leg...... I guess when your drunk you go to the thing you love!
I think we need to look at all the +s here
1. I was eating donuts at 4 AM
2. I was eating hotdogs at 4 AM
3. I made Paul buy me drinks all night
4. I had a bike chained to my leg
5. I woke up later to find a bike still chained to my leg
6. I kinda made it to the show on time the next day
Sunday - well, I crashed the speed bike twice during photoshoots and my leg looks like well I am sure you get the idea. I am sure its only a matter of time before you see some high side crash photos of me.
