A snowy week here in the Rockies. The 8" we got early in the week melted just in time for another 5" in last night's thunder-snow storm. A good time to work on a fillet sport bike with couplers.

I think I bugged Don long enough that he caved and sent me one of his pre-production benders. He's sending me the alignment bar shortly, but I was still able to do some nice S bends by eye-balling it. His stuff is almost too pretty to use.

In progress carbon fiber cyclocross machine. Tubes have been mitered and bonded with epoxy adhesive. Tapered headtube for 1 1/8"-1.5" CX Fork and Press Fit BB30 bottom bracket shell. I keep the seat tube extra tall and will cut it off towards the end of the build process. Next step--> carbon fiber layup.

Whew. Okayallright. First post to FNL. And away we go.
1. Street Tracker. Streety track bike, decent clearances, while still retaining some tight geometry. Finish is a steel stain / patina with a clear over.
2. AllRounder. Cyclocross / light touring geometry. Yes, I messed up the fork, and I am making a new one. Measure 3 times, cut once. BUt dont measure three times and cut. And then forget that you cut, and cut again. Sigh.
Cool, thank you all.

We've had our hands full building walls, and cutting 2x4's for the past 2 weeks. We are finally getting settled and should get back to work next week.
Party on Saturday the 30th if any of you want to come by!

The rock star is dying. And it's a small tragedy. Rock stars have blogs now. I have no use for that kind of rock star.
