Wednesday

A typical afternoon at Mellow Velo; drinking IPA, visits from dirt-jumping fools and a former World Champion, broken bikes to be fixed, fixed bikes to be broken, an '80s Univega in mint condition to be assembled...
Yeah, I'm occasionally jonesing for the full-time gig. But not that much.
For the Wester Ross fans, I'll be riding 035 in on Saturday to get it pimped for commuting. Chatter around the shop says a number of old-schooler's are going to stop in to see it. It's not every day a 30-year old British touring bike roll in to the shop. Hopefully the boys will have a camera going.
Now if Pi would surface and let me know what country she's in...

And no, I still haven't had a cigarette.

Hi:

I work with the online community team for Travel Channel, and noticed while reading your blog that you live in Santa Fe. Samantha Brown actually visits your area (including a stop at Mellow Velo) in the episode of Passports to Great Weekends airing tomorrow night at 10pm ET. I thought you might be interested in catching the show.

Let me know if you would like more information about Sam Brown or this specific Santa Fe episode!

Regards,
