We're back in the office after our trip to MAGIC. We thought we would catch everyone up on where we are and where we are going in the months ahead.

We are heading out to Las Vegas for the MAGIC show. Greg is putting on his best Sean John and I will be suited up in my crushed velvet Rocawear onesy. There is no "Gathering" of middle aged men in full D&D attire at this show...but some great people watching nonetheless.

Plenty of snow, rain, ice, and wind is making its way through the Northwest. Growing up in this stuff in Eastern Washington was one thing. Mix in a lot more people, a lot more vehicles, and add the fact that those people behind the wheels of those vehicles are not used to this much snow and ice means scary conditions!
Don't get me wrong, I'm just as sketched out here in the city when winter hits hard...which is why I am in-doors in the warmth typing this BLOG today.
Greg made his way down to Oregon on a sales trip just before Seattle got tagged with winter...and basically is now stuck south. More on that, along with a pretty telling video of road conditions here in Sea-Town await:

If you don't follow us on Twitter you may have missed a few links we sent out last week to some amazing photos. Red Bull Illume is a photography contest that produced some incredible shots for everything from surfing to air racing. Click on for some links to the various images and sites as well as a video posted for the Red Bull Illume event in Dublin, Ireland.
Well...the wedding was a success (I didn't get stood up) and the Honeymoon was a blast! Barbados was fantastic even though the waves were pretty much a no go. We did, however, get stood up by the taxi service at 5:00 AM for the trip back home. Special thanks goes out to "Chicken" ... the local Barbadian that gave Sara and I a ride to the airport on the fly...you were a Godsend! We made it to our flight just 10 minutes before check-in closed.
Greg handled the orders superbly and it turns out the company can officially run without me. I think I feel pretty good about that fact...maybe I should take more vacations.
Unexpectedly, Northwest Riders profited handsomely from the wedding. You'll notice all the sweet packaging in the BLOG photo above. NWR got the gift around the gifts that Sara and I received. Paper, plastic bags, and all sorts of shipping goodness. So just a heads up...if you receive your future order and it has some fancy tissue paper with floral designs or some other frilly protective material you have just unwittingly become a part of my holy matrimonious goodness. So...congratulations!
I look forward to getting the rest of June rolling and am pumped to be back in the office and cranking. We have a LOT on our plate right now. Looking forward to some BIG things this summer. We have some pretty sweet plans and happenings in the works that I can't quite let you all know about just yet...but stay tuned.
Happy Tuesday.

Over the years, I feel as though I’ve gotten a bad rap amongst some of my friends as the guy that “makes up stories” or “invents fictitious characters” just to be funny. My only defense has been to simply state that for some odd reason I come into contact with an enormous amount of strange people and even stranger situations. I do not seek these random people or events out, I just seem to constantly be in the right place at the right time.

Northwest Riders Clothing Company is at "half mast" so to speek. Mr. Greg Young has set out to the open sea on a sailing voyage from the Puget Sound to San Diego. He left last Tuesday and will return, God willing, sometime toward the first of the month of October. That is tentative barring any giant octopus attacks or Greg being tossed overboard for his lack of sea worthiness.
Give me a ring or an email if you need anything...Greg will be M.I.A. with little to no contact until his return. All the info is on the contact page.
Our skim team has taken to the road for a film trip through NW Washington and into BC Canada. They will be travelling on a 5-day long trip sessioning a bunch of skim spots getting footage for their new video. Greg is playing bus driver for the team and has sent us an update. Have a read.
