Note the cracked grip. It was a scramble to get that replaced before the show.
Bike write up:
The 2011 North American Handmade Bicycle Show (NAHBS) has arrived. I would like to start The Bicycle Escape’s coverage of the event with my new ride, the pictured YiPsan cruiser.
Some of you may remember the YiPsan Sunflower bike that won the “People’s Choice Award” and “Best City Bike” at the 2010 North American Handmade Bicycle Show. Well that beauty belonged to my beauty (aka wife Danielle). At the time the bike was being designed there was discussion of a dude’s version of the now famous cruiser. NAHBS 2011 offered the perfect excuse for such a bike to become a reality.
The design of the bike is function forward. Racks, generator lights, fenders, a bell, and a kickstand adorn the machine. To say it is functional is not to overlook the bikes beauty. The paint was done by the skilled hand of Keith Anderson. His flawless finish is complimented by lots of high-polished bits and pieces. When polished parts were not available (they usually were not) we had them polished. The rims for example started out as a nice silvery/grey color but it was not shiny enough for this build. We could do better. The kickstand, brake lever blades, crank, ring, fenders, and Shimano Alfine rear hub all received the same treatment. We even replaced the kickstand and brake lever pivot pins with pins made of brass. So yeah, I am kinda worked-up about this bike.
One of the original motivating forces behind this bike was the transforming front rack. I wanted a porteur style front rack that could transform into a small randonneur rack. After discussing this idea with Renold Yip at YiPsan Bicycles he took the idea a step further. He designed and built a rack platform with removable left and right sides. With the sides removed you are left with a small front rack. The sides can then be installed on the fork forming a low-rider rack to accommodate side bags.
I am really pleased with the way this bike came together and am super excited to see my bike displayed alongside the best our industry has to offer. Stay tuned for more posts from Austin.

www.sfgate.com/entertainment/garchik/article/Dancing-in-t... ............................................................................................SISTER's of PERPETUAL INDULGENCE's 35th Annual HUNKY JESUS & FOXY MARY fun....The best thing about the Sister's show were the Marijuana 4/20 folks who incorrectly wandered into the Sister's party space...They were like "OMG, This is like , OZ, man."
Yes, it was.
Probably because it was the Sister's 35th Anniversary and it was an homage to the Wizard of Oz. The lawn in front of the stage was filled with red-paper poppies. There were several 'Cowardly Lions", many "Glenda the Good Witch", a couple of 'Bad Witches" including one on a bike...a very young 6-year old Judy Garland passing out Giradelli Chocolate, an awesome Scarecrow of indeterminate sex, a few Tin Men (and one obviously Tin Woman), and even a couple of 'munchkins'...yes, real little people. Though, ADDA DADA is happy to report that there were no Flying Monkeys.
THANK YOU to all the beautiful adults who let ADDA take their photos! (Everyone was properly asked & everyone consented.)

It's hard to find this brand in Singapore.. Only a few stores have it.
I lost my hipster PDA, & this will be my new replacement.
Will search for the leather cover for this..
"A curious plant", writes Groningen's professor of botany, Abraham Munting (1626-1683) in his widely circulated manual of plants, his Naauwkeurige Beschryving der Aardgewassen. "It does not grow like other plants on water or in earth; but in the air, on the branches of Oaks, Apple and Pear Trees ... . It has no roots and yet is so securely anchored that it is seldom dislodged by any strong wind." According to him Mistletoe doesn't occur "in our Cold Regions". And so our determined experimenter attemped to grow it from seed in his university garden. He was sorely disappointed. "Many times I have put its seed in either pots or directly in earth as the moon waxed in March, April, May and June, and also when it waned in September, October and November. I planted shallowly as well as deeply, but the plant never appeared." Poor disappointed Munting; little did he know that the viscous seed of Mistletoe, sticking to the branches of its hosts, germinates parasitically there and not in the ground.
Apparently Munting was interested in growing it because he considered Mistletoe to be 'highly medicinal', an All-Heal (one of its names in English).
Mistletoe, in particular that growing on oaks, writes Naturalist Pliny in Classical Antiquity, was known by the Druids to be an aphrodisiac and a strong antidote to poisons. Considered a holy plant, it has been identified as 'The Golden Bough' of myth and legend.
This late-winter photo of a Golden Male Flower (about 6 mm across) of Viscum album was taken in the Hortus Haren, a descendant of the botanical garden - often called "Groningen's Paradise" - established by Munting and his father for the university. A worthy place for such a mystic plant. But here it grows on an Apple Tree and not an Oak. I wonder if that detracts from its efficacy.
