7 PM at my shop if anyone is interested.

I have had a lot of interest in this process.

Ro, Alex, David and others have done it an it looks quite nice.

We may need some more paint brushes.

I also have blow dryers to speed up the process.

Your bike may not be rideable home. It is best to let the shellac cure for 24 hours.

I can supply free bus passes to get you home.

I'll be installing my brand new Surly fork on the CrossCheck so I can ride with you BOIs again. It'll have hot flat bar action with thumb shifts and bars so narrow it'll make some of you want to cry.

All I need is a star nut, grips, cables, headset spacers, headset bearings and time. Come watch me make it all go wrong...

I'm in for the wrench part. Aaron--I assume the usual form of compensation for the use of your facilities applies to this event?

I'd like to help out, but can't do it this Monday. Maybe I'll shellac some bars on Wed.

Acceptable Beers:

Lagunitas IPA
Bison Stout
Lagunitas Maximus IPA (bonus points!)
Any IPA or Stout from Rogue
Stone IPA or Stout
Any brand of organic IPA or Stout
Fish IPA

If you bring pale ale or Fat Tire, or Redhook, you will need to go get ANOTHER acceptable 6-pack to get in the door. Other beers are fine in addition, but are not valid for trade!

Dogfish Head 90 minute 4-pack is equal to a 6er of other beer

1 6-pack = 2 large bottles in trade value.

PBR is no longer allowed in my shop.

OK, BtAH, you can bring PBR.

I could use another good wrench at these parties.

And for the record, the beer is not all just for me. You all know I share.

I'll be there. Bringing the boy spawn. But I'll be there to wrench or provide unsolicited and possibly dangerous advice on how to make your bike as cool as the shit we rode in the 80's.

Thanks for boring out my holes Aaron and the brews.

The only thing that got shellaced tonight was me!

Oh, well, I even had all my shellac supplies at the ready. It was fun.

There is still a 3/4 full keg of beer left over for the Tuesday night ride.

Rode bikes! Drank Beer!

It's looking pretty good for me to pick the cargo bike up saturday. If I can figure out how to get it back from portland, I may ride the STP on it. Strap a palm tree and a cooler of beer to it.

It might break down enough to fit into the van.

Aaron thanks for having the shop open, would have loved to hang out longer and help with the keg. Would have brought a bike over for canilever set up had I been able to stay longer. I'll pass on the shellac though.

You can put it on the Amtrak Cascades. The front wheel comes off QR and the rear wheel hangs on the rack. Easy to do.

Not taking the cascades back but I'll keep that in mind.
