Glorious

Posted on by Smoke

It’s not a word that we use much anymore. I resolveto make more use of it from now on….

Dave and Kurtis from T-dot are here for a couple of GLORIOUS days.

…And what a GLORIOUS beat down it was. Nothing like fresh meat for the machine, if youknow what I mean.

Dave gets loose on CBC.

Again on Pangor.

Kurt hanging on in GLORIOUS fashion across the Pangor swamp. He made it.

Angus did a run with us today. He was in fine form, testing the Banshee Bikes warranty policy.

Even better, some action. This is his line into the top of Empress. That’s the Chaparral he’s riding, not the Scream.

Friday Night

Posted on by Smoke

Must be beer and cruiser night.

Hanging out at Danu’s new shop again, checking out the classic bike collection. Of course, I forgot to take a pic of the bikes he’s going to be actually building here. Oh well, I’ll get to it later.

HUKK bikes, if you ever see one, are going to built right on the North Shore. That’s a first in the industry. One day he’ll get his shit together and get a website up so you can admire his work.

Until that day, check out his cruiser collection…

Cove Club Ride

Posted on by Smoke

Well about fricken time. A Cove Club. I’m stoked. Part of the shop culture should involve actually riding bikes and drinking beer for a change.

This past Friday we fired up the old “Fideaux 3” and went for a blast on Seymour.

It was a little bit Arctic at the top.

..so we decided to pedal uphill for a bit to warm up.

The snow was over our hubs up there, but if you really hammered in it you could get going.

Once in the forest it was pretty good. The wood was a bit slick maybe, but it was lots of fun.

Huckwagon Tim was putting on a clinic today.

So was Paul.

Good thing Daylight Savings Time kicked in a couple of days after this.

Kinda dark.

And then finish ‘er off DrunkCyclist style with beers, girls, and some hand built Italian road bikes.
