Thanks! Things are looking up - Coconino Family Reunion is today - so far we have 20lbs of ground elk, 30lbs of Hatch green chili, 10 gallons of pinto beans & a keg of Tecate & one of XX - Garro.
True story:
The last little bit of that green chili salsa you gave us is still in a jar in my refrigerator. I couldn't bring myself to finish it because it was effing amazing and I kept wanting to hang on to that last little bit.
It's definitely gone bad by now, but I'll keep it in there a little while longer until it gets fuzzy.
Great to hear the reunion went well, and please put me on the list for when you get another run of t-shirts done.

Will do & thanks! FWIW, I put that recipie in the "salsa" wiki here on VS - let me know if I did not, but I'm sure I did.
good to see you here in AZ! 'twas a pleasure. - Garro.
I've got so many pictures & I had so pro photogs show, so I'll do a full blog post on the Coconino Cycles Family Reunion when I can (back to bikes today - what a whirlwind the last few days have been!) but here is a teaser shot.
Some damn nice bikes & some damn nice people eating damn good food with damn nice weather.
Thanks, everyone! - Garro.
Finally found an "official" headcount - at the apex of the party we had 56 Coconinos at once with all the coming & going, so more showed up - pretty good for our friends having a wedding down the trail (duly crashed post reunion - 'natch) and the Gourds playing afterwards downtown.
Jon Norstog from Thursday cycles made a surprise appearance much to my enjoyment!
- Garro.

Not sure - it was really fun! Pretty easy to pull off, too. Everything fit in or on the 89' Chevy Baja expedition rig.
Gotta see what's up next year, I got invited to row a boat down the entire Grand Canyon again..........
You are, of course, invited out any time - You're one of the family! Boy, there was some good chow.

Thanks for the invite. I was seriously bummed to miss out this year. Life just got in the way. I knew from the food you served up when we picked up our frames that the food would be good. Was looking forward to more of your salsa, and good times with the rest of the Coconino crew. I'll get back out there for sure. Looks like it was big fun.

You're always welcome! Come for Sedona/Verde Valley season. - Garro.

You know, it actaully started over T-shirts. Everyone wanted T-shirts (and hoodies) and sending them all over the world is daunting, although as soon as I get the fallout all sorted from the bash (I think I sold four bikes - deposits are trickling in as promised - cool) I will be trying to set up infrastructure to get shirts & softgoods out in a more timely manner, like, at all. I'm a bike builder. The softgoods thing is allot for me on top of bikes so I'm getting help, I'll post here when I get it all sussed up.
Anyway - it started as a dissemination point for T-shirts. The shirts payed for all the beverages & food on top of all the awesome potluck chow folks rolled out - Green Chili, chiken enchiladas, elk burgers, garden veggies, frijoles, slaws, corn, squashes, melons.........AZ food.
It was cool & fun! It gave me a great creative bump to see all my metal children & their people and how happy they make them & hear about all the cool places they have been - all over the world! See you there next year - Garro.
These fillets are to be left unfiled in this state. i'm considering a change in pricing, offering a frame with this finish at a very nice price. I'll post pics taken after paint for scrutiny as well - Garro.
