Title: The Zen House Bike Thing
Post by: MendoDave on July 24, 2015, 12:14:35 AM
Last weekend  there was a bike event at "The Zen House" (http://www.thezenhouse.net). Dave & his wife Kelley do this once a year. Since I was on the Mendocino coast that weekend I was able to go. There were about a Hundred bikes there from near & far, and a few really cool ones as well.

So while not as fun a DIMBY which I had to miss.  [bang] It was still a good time. There was food & beer, and I was able to catch up with some riding buddies. The ride down & back was real nice and the weather couldn't have been better.
I still have some 1/4" chicken strips on the tire.  [cheeky]

This Guzzi was one of my favorites.

The 175 was also a nice looking thing.

The green one on the right is mine.

On the way down I checked out an artisans & crafters fair in Fort Bragg. The boats are made of strips of Redwood laminated together. Not sure how much these cost but they are no doubt more expensive than the plastic Kayaks.

Good to see that they're still doing well.

Stopped there 3 years ago on my Highway 1 trip.
Still got the hat!  8)
