Mod or Rocker

In which camp do you reside? Here's a brief quiz to help us all figure it out. According to this I'm on the rocker side of the fight, but my lack of pocket comb and indifference to the Beatles means I'm not going to be in the front of the convoy.

Bowerbird Bazaar

I spent last weekend manning the two halves stall at Bowerbird Bazaar, it was a great weekend, we sold some product and found some more retailers, but the biggest plus was spending time with all the enthusiastic folk down there. The most fond recollection is of the strong sense of community among all the participants and patrons alike.







My photos tend to made it seem quieter than it really was, but that's just due to the fact that when the Bazaar was busy, so was I.



We offered Giant Jack & Jills for the first time and the reception was positive enough that we'll certainly be doing a bigger batch very soon



Our installation feature the Wall, it really seemed to grab peoples attention as they would often walk straight past the Plank without noticing it, only to go back and pat the cord with affection.



We brought along our workshop stool, seems like this will need to be produced too.



This little red board earned more than it's fair share of attention too, it is just the way we coat our screws, but after all the interest in it we are going to have to develop something around the concept!



A huge thanks to the organisers, and all those participants and patrons who came along and made it a success. We're already looking forward to the next one.

Pursuit of Helios

"In the time of the gods, Heracles; driven mad by Hera, slew his own children. To amend his crime, he was given ten labours by his nemesis Eurystheus. In one of his trials, Heracles sought the golden cup of Helios with which he might cross the Mediterranean. For weeks he scoured the Lybian desert, so frustrated with the heat was he that he did fire a volley of arrows at the sun god himself. The retrieval of the arrows from Helios has been left to you .... can you attract the gods favour?

Meet at the Forest of Dreams with your bike at 6pm on Friday the 16th Oct, chase the sun and bring Helios' blessing upon thyself. Excelsior!"

I'll translate that for ya'll: Alleycat, Friday night, be there. Oh yeah, it's in Adelaide.

SB#4 is here

The Sideburn guys have delivered the goods again, at least insofar as they have completed #4, but I have no doubts that it will be even more chrome and dirt than #1-3.

Local Happenings #4: Roller Frenzy

This one should really have been #1, but I forgot, simple as that:

Port Adelaide Cycling Club and South Coast Cycling present:

ROLLER FRENZY I
9th October 2009
Supported by Biomechanics Cycles & Repairs
Upstairs @ 'Townies Bar, Edwardstown Velodrome, off East Tce, South Plympton from 7:30pm, straight after the first outdoor track races of the 2009/10 Summer Season.

I'll be getting along to this after the Bowerbird festivities to have a beer while yelling at cheering on all the boys and girls taking on the rollers.
