Brooks

So one of the first things I need to do is study, revamp, rework and do everything I can with the Brooks brand and the line.  where do I sign up?  just kidding, already did.   yesterday, I got to go through all of the old catalogues (read:catalogs in American) from the late 1800's and early 1900's. Brooks, the man, was a genius.  Tons of patents on everything from the bicycle seats to motorcycle seats to golf bags that attach to your bicycle...etc...here's a few pics from the catalogue pilfering!

the year of the bicycle

well, tons of changes in life.....and its a great thing.  especially when those changes involve a new job.  one that you love and feel good about.

right now, I'm writing from Italy.  From my hotel room in Bassano Del Grappa to be exact and I'm heading to the Selle Royal headquarters in a bit.  While there, I'll be discussing the futures of the Selle Royal, fizik, and Brooks brands and where we can go with each one.  should be a great day.  tour the production lines, talk shop, talk bicycles, take pictures and enjoy.
