Spring Break
With a blink of the eye and the slide of tire, the next 6 months of my life changed radically.
Concrete beats bone everytime, and the oregon city skatepark claimed my tibula. It was a bad break, and I've been in the hospital for a bit. Docs assure me I'll heal, and be good as new. It's just going to take time.
The bad news is that things at Tonic are about a month behind schedule, and the fact I won't be anywhere near a bike for 3 to 6 months. I also won't be going to many events, or really doing much besides healing, working, and getting re-aquainted with my guitar.
The good news is that I will heal. And, with the burden of going places and doing things lifted, a good deal more will be able to get done here at Tonic Fab. All of which will result in developing products people are interested in, and actually having them in stock and ready to go by the end of the year.
Other quick news:
Congrats to Tonic Fab Team member Aaron Nactrab for 6th place finish at Sea Otter in Senior Men's Expert. This is out of a feild of 70 or so folks.
Also, congrats to Guy Marsh for riding, but not entering the dirt jump comp due to what have been described as very sketchy conditions, especailly wind wise. I've been to Sea Otter a couple times, and it's always been the same story...bad winds during the comp. When will the organizers wise up and stage the event in the morning before the winds? As long as people are willing to risk life a limb for a couple hundred bucks and a shot a some glory...never.
