Hi All-
As I spend 98% of my RM time in here, thought this would be the best place to post up news. So here's what's happened so far this year:
Got married!
Going to be a father in August! We found out two weeks ago that we're having a little girl!
And...I'm moving! Moving back east, to Connecticut! Before you start warning me about winters/etc, know that I (and my wife) grew up back East. I'm from Montreal originally, lived in Westchester, and Long Island, and my wife is from Long Island (I went to HS out there too). So her family will be a ferry ride and a short drive away.
We haven't found a place yet, but I'm looking pretty hard, it'll be in the Bethel, CT area, and yes, I will be staying in the bike biz. Working with a brand with over 100 years of history, and less on the super-high-end stuff, more the recreational products. You can probably guess the brand. It's a step up for me, from part & accessories to complete bikes, and I'm stoked about it.
Also happy to get back East, near family and some of my oldest friends.
And yes, this means another garage sale...one of the downsides of my profession means that I can't always choose any brand of bike. So if you are a size 56cm or 58cm, and are looking for some chi-chi stuff, lemme know!
