Hey Ddble ... glad you like it. It looks better in person and finally I'll be able to prove that my work is not a mirage of photo trickery. Haha!!
Just pulled the rear wheel off my bike to find that all of last year's fresh new wires were rubbed down to last strand by the tire. Pandora's box and par for the course. I just nailed the gremlin that did it with a wrench. All to easy.
When I stop and think that you are coming in all the way from Japan, everything that has and will go wrong before Saturday becomes so trivial. I may very well be hitch hiking a ride the last few miles but I'll be smiling.
See you there!!
