Collecting bikes eventually pays off. I wouldn’t have had anything to trade for this website if I hadn’t acquired a 4th fixed gear bicycle to trade (it was a Schwinn Madison with a history as an Encino rental). The hardest part has been figuring out how to use it though. I think I’ve got that taken care of now though. Now I just have to keep it updated with everything I’m up to.

This race year is almost over for me on the track, and I’m honestly looking forward to that. I’ve spent a lot of time (well spent) racing, but it will be good to have one less thing going for at least a few months. Moth Attack will be making what is hopefully the first of many trips to Elite Nationals at the LA Velodrome in Carson, CA at the end of the month.

I just finished up this frame for a fellow trackie, Tod. He’s already taken it out adventuring in Northern California, but the powder coat was less than ideal and we’re sending it back now.

Another touring frame is at paint, and I’ve got my first road frame in the jig to be fillet brazed this week. After that I’m back to track frames for a short bit at least. I’m not positive that I’ll make it through cross season without trying to build myself a cross bike.

I’ll be out at Interbike for a couple days (and visiting my parents). I’ll be wandering around in an uber-cool Moth Attack t-shirt, and a mohawk. Say hi!
