Bicycle Revival Albuquerque

Well. I've been diagnosed.
Don't worry it's rarely contagious and only sometimes fatal.
Apparently I've had this condition most of my life.
I have HDS!
I grew up thinking compassion and human rights were a good thing. You know, that stuff Jesus talked about.
But it seems I was just suffering from HI**ER DERANGEMENT SYNDROM.

Another custom build!
. build. XT hubs laced with spokes and rims.

Couldn't do it with Agua!

Vacation!
What a week! Exploring sweeping trail and with Agua!

firings and just chilling out around .
3rd firing reached 1900 F and passed 2100F bottom shelf. That was rough, though. Stalled out at 5 in the morning.

Time to fix the issue with air flow in the and try again!

Nice being away from the shop for a bit and taking care of other things.

Thanks to the guy who left a 1 star review 4 hours into my first vacation in 2 years, calling me lazy! I worked on stuff the entire time. Just not your bike.

And a random weird rock. Fossilized worm holes? Also found a small fragile shell fossil in shale nearby.

Breaking down cardboard, inspecting steerer tube cuts and more. Being a shop dog can plain wear you out!

Meet Agua. Have been trying to get some help around the shop for a while now.

She'll be in charge of security and public relations.

Just some bikes that have been through the shop...
I always mean to take pics but usually get distracted texting people to let them know they are ready for the trail.

Suspension work. Frame bearing replacement. Hub over hauls. Wheel builds. ..

I was run over by a drunk driver on the prototype of that Moots Smoothie in 1997.

Nice day out around Cedro peak. Did a bit of trail sweeping. Found an Ant Queen.

It's called Humanitarianism. You know, what Jesus preached.
The opposite of what Republicans stand for.

Some cool roadrunners to look at while we contemplate the end of democracy 😀

I wonder if they lay eggs?

Drump has officially declared "antifa" a terrorist group. So, if you are against fascism and tyranny, you are now a terrorist in the eyes of the American government.

He's following Mussolini and Hitlers playbook.
Pardon criminals that support him
Fire anyone who doesn't
Ban books
Defund education
Kill the economy
Label opposition terrorists
Attack LGBTQ and minorities
Start prison camps/mass deportation
Remove safety and corruption inspectors
Cause chaos and declare martial law

Will you stand against it or go along with it?

Will you turn in your neighbors to save yourself?

The line has been drawn.

If there was ever any question what side of history I stand on, it should now be clear!

Women I love are now less safe.
Poor and downtrodden are now less safe.
Taxes are going up. Prices are going up.

We are less free than we used to be.

If you feel offended maybe you should be offended.

I'm disgusted with my fellow country persons.

Trump showed you who he is and you're OK with that.

I was tasked to find a baby squatch and I'm not going to rest until I do.
More evidence!
I know I'm close. Berry eater with a penchant for views.
Yes, it's right on the trail but look at the view!
It's a great squatch squat spot!

First person in the shop that can tell me where the squatch squat spot is gets a FREE animal water bottle cage by !

First time to 12,000 feet this year!
Didn't notice the air being thinner,
but the sun was hot!
