Thanks guys.

Most definitely manufactured in Canada using materials from the USA. Thanks to anyone buying RF stuff! I've seen pickup trucks with bumper stickers that say "forestry feeds my family" well mountainbiking feeds mine, so again, thanks for riding it!

no more beers on the roof... *tear* Good luck with the new gig Julian!

Froes are great but they get beat up really fast if you're using a steel hammer or sledge. You're supposed to hit them with a chunk of wood, but then they don't go in as easily. We usually use steel wedges or old axe-heads as wedges (although hammering on old axe heads is kinda sketch, they're just super cheap so they're more "disposable").

I got that exact same run bike for my little guy when he turned 2 a couple of months ago. So far he's not quite as good as this kid, but I still love to watch him rip around the driveway. Little kids rule, they're like watching drunk midgets with no respect for gravity. Which is in it's own way bad cause they pass that fear on to you the parent, my kid's recently taken up climbing and I've found him hanging off the outer part of our staircase hand railing about 6 feet up!

I was originally brought on to help with the launch of the Next cranks. We are using an unconventional production method to produce them and almost none of the equipment needed to produce the cranks exists. As well, the facility was not set up for producing carbon components so there was alot of construction (plumbing and ventilation) that needed to take place before we could start anything. The whole thing has been a learning process, we're kinda blazing a new trail. As for my career path, ya... I've never stayed at a place for more than 2 years. The first one had a problem with an accountant ripping off close to a million dollars, the second was a venture capital which downsized, the third one just plain old sucked, the fourth was great until they got a new president that I didn't see eye to eye with so I bailed.
