Off Again

Sim and I are just packing for a trip to the States. We’ll be going to the Sea Otter this coming weekend and hopefully getting to see a few more California framebuilders and riders while we’re there too.

While this kind of stuff is pretty old hat for me (I just found a ‘Sea Otter ‘99′ press pass) I still appreciate that we’re pretty lucky to get to do all this travel and meet all those great people. I may harp on (too much) about how the job’s not all glamour, but at times like this, it actually is pretty cool to be a bike journo. Now all I have to do is make sure I do a good enough job at getting stories, pictures and interviews for the readers. I mean it’s all very well me seeing the Fox/Mavic/DT etc 2008 stuff, but it’s no good unless I can tell everyone. So, notepad, tape recorder and lucky pen all packed. And about four cameras too…

    admit it…
    at the keg your answer to “what do you do?” is more interesting than most answers

    while at Sea Otter be sure to see the Jason Berry Film… 24 Solo

    oh…

    I just wrote an article about Single Speeds for an east coast cycling magazine… a local freebie called SPOKES

    it was light and fun
