Kevin Bacon in Seven Steps

No, not really.  Just was a cool sounding title.  What a DAY!  We was all busy little bees to boot!  Thanks to all the wonderful familial coming in to visit today!  And the re-pairs!  Had a neat competition going with all the mechs to see who could finish the fastest (and still get it done right!) I think Adam won.  But in my defense I was doing customer relations, meet and greets, and sales until Momma showed up.  We do thank you all for once again trusting us with your repairs, and it was real swell to see some returning faces! 
And talk about empty!  Thanks to the two visiting gentleman whom walked all the way from Clearwater Beach to see us! WOW!  they pass by, like 5 other bike shops on the way here!  (Not TO subtle of an ego stroke there) and they left out of here with the Black MTB, and one of the Pacific "Daily bangers"  Hope your stay here is a fun one!
And to the Gent and his wonderful mom, whom i had the pleasure of talking to via the phone.  Caught us on the Blog and came in to check us out, and left a happy camper with the Trek 720.  And we are SO glad that that self same ride is now his SOLE mode of transportation!
And to the WONDERFUL Mom and Dad, who traveled from Tampa to see what was up.  They came in to check out a ride that was no longer here, but that was OK as the Schwinn "Big Boy" cruiser was EXACTLY what they wanted, or rather what their son would want.  Listen, Kiddo give your Mom and Dad a BIG HUG.  Tell them you love them and appreciate what they do for you! K?
Now at this point in the day, I sunk into the Dungeon, as Angi came in to take over the front.
Sold the other Pacific banger to a gentleman getting back into ridding after a long hiatus as a beginner bike!  LOVE TO HEAR IT!  And once you graduate, we'll be here to hook you up with your upgrade!
The Schwinn commuter went to a gent who had come in for the "Bug Boy" cruiser sadly, a tad bit to late.  but as it will be HIS Tampa street cruiser, I thinks he's better off with the commuter anyway!
The Rhino, we put out last night went to a friend who's joining Angi's Sunday ride, with some of our other neighbors.  Happy trails, man!
On to what's new.  Anthony was a mad man today!  He put out 4!  and started on a 5th in conjunction with me.  It's a real sweet early 60's Robin Hood single speed.  Doing a full mechanical resto, but keeping the original stove pipe black paint!  Should be done tomorrow!  He finished the Schwinn cruiser and three BMX's!  Speaking o Anthony, check out his pic below, and unique eating instrument.  No kidding folks, this was not staged!  He at the whole thing using it!  Gosh, I hope he cleaned it first!
Me?  well after a flood of re-pairs i was only able to finish 2.  One of which, sorry to say i was unable to get a pic of, as it sold as i was wheeling it out to photo!  OH well!
Again, Thanks to all the great peoples who swamped us today! LOVED IT!!!



YES...THAT'S A WRENCH.  No, i DON'T KNOW WHY.  I MEAN IT'S CHINESE FOOD.  THAT REQUIRES NEEDLE NOSE PLIERS!
