New board. New bike.

I have been on a bicycle kick lately and picked up this sweet Linus Sportster 3 speed from The Wheelhouse before they closed ( really bummed about that). And also a new Hoyte california spud twynzer fynzer that Russ re-made for me. ( 6'6" 21.7  2.7 roundtail). Both are awesome rides.

Handelbar Coffee Roasters

We have a new coffee house in town. Handlebar Roasters owned by Aaron and Kim who are ex-professional cyclist and both competed in the Tour de France. They have awesome coffee and everything is setup very European which has attracted both cyclist doing group rides and motorcyclist including my Vespa mechanic Bobby and his Moto Guzzi.

Surfboard Maintenance

Had to do a little surfboard maintenance for the up coming winter season. Re-wax of the boards and a new True Ames fin setup for the Hoyte longboard.

Inovation, then and now.

John Britten created this amazing v-twin superbike at his home in 1990. The chassis is built onto the engine and is made from carbon fiber. The current Ducati GP 11.1 MotoGP bike uses the same technology today 2011. Amazing!

Hoyte Mini Symster

RR

Russell made me a 5'7" version of a Mini Simmons. At 44 , it took a while to adapt to it being so small and fast. But it is going to be a fun summer board on those days that you need speed on a slow wave.

Santa Barbara's Farmers Market

 I went to the farmers market on Easter weekend to pick up a little produce. The market is always amazing and inspires me to cook more than ever!

Russell's new Twin Fynzer

Russell has a new custom twin fin called the "Twin Fynzer" I'm hoping to scrape up a little money to get one soon .This one has glass on bamboo fins from Marlin Bacon and Fins 101.
