Good News, Good News, Some Bad News, and finally Some Good News

The First Good News is that my First shipment of Taiwanese BLTs were not on this ship!!















The Second bit of Good News is that the first batch is painted and will be shipped August 21st from Taiwan!!











The Bad News is that my friend of 35 years Richard Sachs is selling the WCAMO button I personally gave him at the Portland Oregon NAHBS.
That is like finding out that your best friend is "re-gifting" the wedding present you gave him.
But you can bid on it on Ebay - I guess I'm famous enough to be a draw on the description tag line.

NEW TO BLOGGING

A year ago today I was in Bern Switzerland where the pictured Gnome lives. Today - I'm starting a Blog. My inspiration has been Paul Sadoff of Rock Lobster Cycles. I can only hope to post stuff half as enlightening as Paul's Blog - http://overopinionatedframebuilder.blogspot.com/

You might be wondering what "WCAMO" stands for?? As it says in the heading - "Who Cares About My Opinion"
Next you might wonder - Why WCAMO??? Because ATMO was already taken!!

The bike hanging off the bridge was in Zurich - Probably the most creative bike parking I have ever seen. But, with so many bikes in Switzerland - parking spaces are where you can find one.

I will be posting as my mood allows. Funny Stuff on the "Interweb", News from Bruce Gordon Cycles, Special Offers, etc.

Check back often, and I encourage you to comment and send Pictures. I would really like to see photos of your Bruce Gordon bike or interesting touring pictures.

Below are 3 Rock 'n Roads at Hoosier Pass. Someone gave me this photo at the San Diego Custom Bicycle Show - I'm not sure of their name.

Regards, Bruce Gordon
