Grape is gone

Alas my little grape is gone. It was a little bit of a "do" but the end result was what I wanted and more! The story is, this dude emails me in the morning and wants me to call him about grape. I finished off my coffee and gave him a ring. A meeting was planned and off were we.... me and grape. I got to said meeting area, went to Tim's and got more coffee, hung out at the parking lot for a bit and gave him a call after 20 or so. Dude said his ride is a late and asked if I could go to his place, a little of the hmmmmm at first but planned a second meeting close to his place and an added forty for my travels. So I arrived at said meeting place the second and saw a dude sitting close to the entrance but called dude anyway, it was him and it was all good. Got some props from some BMX kids about grape and dude was even happier. A sale was made with no haggling and extra cash for delivery.... I wish every sale was like this. Had no trouble getting home and had a story for the wife. It's cool when it all comes together like this sale, nice bike, nice dude, nice day but it would be nicer to have a store.

I am working on probably the last bike for 2009. It will be a Big Boy BMX. If you have checked out the site you may have seen my BB that I built for testing, it is white and chrome. It rides real nice and is lighter than I thought it would be, so I decided to build one for the public. It has been powder coated black and will have a 70's BMX vibe to it. I am still waiting for parts but they should be here soon.
