We have the new gear trickling into the Northwest Riders office and it is officially Tag/Fold/Bag time. If anyone wants to have a sweet folding party give us a shout and maybe we can enlist you ... all the Red Bull you could ever want is the payment. Plus...if you have never ran the "Flip-Flop-Folder" then you are in for a very special treat. Heavy machinery it is not, but if you aren't careful it could possibly dislocate a shoulder or maybe bend a fingernail...chew on that for a bit.
A few quick updates over on the rideBLOG. Hoody one is in and the rest of the winter goods are close to the doorstep and will be available at Grizzly Sports in Mill Creek, WA and Motion Board Shop in Lake Forest Park, WA soon. The gear will also be available online at BakesOnline.com and of course here on the Northwest Riders site.
So I was not too clear yesterday on the phrase I mentioned was spoken in regards to our clothing being held up and wanted to elaborate after receiving plenty of questions on Facebook. The phrase "I am a little worried here.." was uttered from the crazy character that we purchased clothing labels from. Now I don't know about most of you...but I myself don't ever really expect to hear such reinforcing and confidence instilling words from a vendor when we are in a time crunch trying to make a deadline. On that note...the labels arrived...turns out it was the Drunken Contortionists at the border. They wanted the labels for something practical I am sure. Exactly what though we can't be too sure.
