Scotchlite 680

Late addition to the Christmas list. I think totally covering the bike is overkill, but I definitely want to add some of this to my ride.

Bike Craft IV (follow up)

Bike Craft was last Wednesday and was nothing short of amazing. The Lucky Lab was packed wall to wall with people and the beer was flowing. Tons of local vendors showing off their goods. A special treat for me was getting to meet the DeJerks in person. All in all, great people, great stuff, great times!


(The work DeJerk!)


(Thanks for sharing your pretzels O-bearded one!)

And to whoever was baking mass quantities of cinnamon bread in southeast Wednesday night, it smelled great!

Bike Craft IV

Check out the full vendor list!

Should be quite awesome. Really looking forward to seeing the DeJerks there!

900 Lumens (when you need more)

I just came across this 900 lumen uber light. I havn't seen one of these on the road (I would probably be blinded). I think I like it because kinda reminds me of the headlights on the family truckster in Vacation.
