Titanium Joe sent me a care package with a variety of fun tubing for bikes, stems, and seatposts... Chad, your bike is in there, you just have to squint and tilt your head to the side a bit to see it.
I began paint on Steve's cruiser, working on getting it through the blast cabinet and laying out the graphics for the plotter...
The rest of the frames standing by for their turn through the paint booth. The little slips of paper stuck in the seat tubes are my personal notes on items that need finished for each frame.
Kalten spent a long day in the shop (for him) on Sunday, and helped me prep for Luv handles so that once I get back, I'll have a head start on the March deliveries...
Every night, it's dark and a bit dreary when I leave, but this ice was quite refreshing and I couldn't resist a pic
What most foks don't realize is that this last two months have been more than stressful. In addition to all the regular responsibilities, we are prepping our house for sale and looking at locations that can hold both our home and Groovy on the same property, as my contract for the current location is being broken at the end of this year. Hopefully, this will be the final move for the shop and an upgrade for our family. Fingers crossed.
I got home last night in time to kiss Em goodnight, as she and Frankie were sleeping on the couch while her bedroom is being packaged up in preparation for the move. Snuggled in tight under a fun scrap quilt made by Christi...
So there ya go folks, a quick look at the last week. I'll try to get up some paint process pics in the next few days. Hope to see some of you in Richmond!

I can not wait to see the drop bar bike! Those fenders look fantastic.
Congrats on finding new digs...
Being close to the family will be a nice upgrade. Wish I could be at NAHBS this year.
Keep up the good work Rody, I'm sure you'll find a good home for Groovy and your family.
