Another great day at the show and a good deal of new media to share. There are a couple of really great reviews and ride reports on cyclingnews.com about the new Pivot Cycles Firebird. Also in there is the ride report that I shared earlier on the new Turner 5-spot.
That's going to be enough reading for most people I guess, so for today I'll cut it short.
One day to go!

dw-link Turner 5 spot review
I just came across a mini review of the Turner 5 spot on Bikeradar.com. The guys wrote one of my favorite quotes that I have seen about dw-link this year.
"Our riding revealed the same things. That superb dw-link rear end keeps the rear wheel firmly planted and pedals with nary a hint of wasted energy. It’s a suspension action that you genuinely don’t notice till you realize the rockpile you just flew over didn’t rattle your teeth."
Thanks for those kind words guys, after all of the time that I spent pouring over the kinematics on that bike, it is a great feeling when it is appreciated! :)

Interbike Day 1
Well, the first day of Intertrode is in the bag, and what a day it was. Today I spent time at the Ibis, Pivot, and Turner booths talking to riders about bikes and life. I met some great people today. The response to the new bikes and projects in general that I've been working on finishing up over the last year has been incredible. I took a quick look through some of my favorite internet cycling sites to see what cool things that the men with the cameras and trained eyes found on the show floor, and I was excited to find that some the new. e.thirteen components and my picture made the front page for day 1, thanks for the nod on that guys! That makes all the hard work seem that much more worthwhile. (go to www.bikemag.com to see their interbike coverage)
Today was also a great day to catch up with some good friends that I don't see often enough. There are a lot of really genuinely good people involved in cycling, and days like today make me realize how lucky I am to have such great friends out there, even if we only get to spend a few weekends a year hanging out. Somehow we seem to make up for lost time just fine.
I'm looking forward to meeting more new people out there tomorrow! Until then, good night.
