Shit's been delivered. Where is the pictures, yo!? Also, the receipt is missing so I think it got left in the box while I was hiding it from Wifey. :rofl::rolleyes:

I'm diggin all the yeti swag, the mug is so cool! (bummed that the mug's handle was broke- it wasn't for lack of protection on the wrapping) Anyway, thank you- the hot sauce is delicious!
:cheers:

Epoxy is your friend. I'm all about keeping it local; everything in that box is Colorado local.

Awesome! Every time I checked the tracking, it said it was "in transit". Was getting worried. Glad the beer made it across the border. Hope you like IPAs!
Love IPAs. A local pizza joint has the Flying Monkey Juicy Ass IPA once in a while, and it's outstanding. Definitely happy to get one of those and looking forward to trying the rest. Thanks again!

Gettin stuff that doesn't come from my area is half the fun- thanks again and Merry Christmas!

PS- I can't find the receipt either, so you may want to keep your eye out for that ;)

Sweet! I was also wondering if the winter socks might be overkill, but given your posts over the past few days, it seems like they are right on the money. I'm so jealous of those riding conditions. Fat biking season has started in earnest here, and it's a lot of fun, but not quite the same level of fun as railing turns on frozen ground. I miss railing turns. Happy holidays man!

Your very welcome
I was a little apprehensive about shipping beer out of the country but of you ever come this way I'll buy you all the beer you can drink

What is this suspicious package?

The security team has cleared it.

@jimmydean knocked it out of the park with the hot sauces and beer selection can't wait to try them all. The jersey is awesome too.

We'll have to check out the sexy bingo if I ever visit that area. Nice choice of packing material. :)

You are quite welcome @BadDNA. I decided to toss in the WW and Mercury for an interesting sample of the free rags we have here and added packing. The Dead Guy is a special "glow" bottle. :rofl:

<edit> Picking a few beers here is tough, there are sooo many good ones I could have picked, but those make for a good sample and you can never go wrong with Terry Porter.

<edit2> Fire on the Mountain is the ONLY wing joint here and has a literal ton of great sauces. I love the peanut because I can use it for damn near anything. I don't know if any of those things are available on the east side (except for maybe Aardvark), but I went the @stoney route with supporting of the locals and exposing the outside world to a little bit of P-Town.

dude, they have a place in Denver too. that peanut sauce is the shizz :thumb:
Really? I had no idea!!! There are 2 here. The raspberry hab is my personal favorite, but pretty much all of their sauces are damn tasty. I guess I need to see where all they have them, I thought it was pure local. :fans:

did get a little swag for counterbalance though. my list was full of mostly unobtainium, so this is a sweet comprimise. soon i'm gonna have a bedroom tattoo to rival TheMontashu...



Glad you received it in time! GHY is our local shop that is rad, and that's one of my favorite hot sauces. (Wife was pissed that I sent you our spare bottle lol)
Didn't know what color your bikes are, so I went with colors that clash with everything. :D

Glad you liked it all! Those beers are from a tiny brewery just north of me in the mountains (Adirondack Mtb’s) and they only distribute locally!!! Coincidence that my cat Rocket kept stealing the bags too? Lol! Merry Christmas!

Seriously awesome sauce. Back in the day you could only get it from their stand at Saturday Market.
Was introduced to it by some portland friends- that is awesome it was part of your SS gift too! Have to get to that Fire on the Mountain place next trip down. Love wings, and love hot sauces! Sounds like heaven :)

SO I don't know what monkey sent this AWESOME package of goodness!







So full of win. I got a bakers dozen of awesome shirts, killer stickers, 2 great beers (I've had the peanut butter, it's really good), some sausage, a random cat pic, and a memory of a bad day. :rofl:

Whoever sent this, thank you so much. Total score.
