barcelona yup in spain...

Hi Everyone,
So, I got this order from Jordi in Barcelona.  I asked where they found out about little old me.  And he sent me a link to this amazingly cool blog.

Here is what Jordi said about it "in february 2011 you can find one post talking about your caps. have a look there. It's in Catalan language, just explaining your web site and your caps.
very useful"

Of course I know how to read Catalan perfectly.  I checked it out.  Even if you can't read it -- it is darn cool.  Fab pictures.

The Heartland Velo Show was great.
Cheers,
Mary

New digs and art - attack!

Hi All,
I have new studio space at Bridgehead Studio right here in Alameda.  I'm pretty tired from moving in, but very happy to have such a great place to create.   My studio is not quite set up yet.  As soon as it is pictures to follow.

At Bridgehead there are monthly events: The-Estuary-Art-Attack and open studio events too.  I can't wait to attend.  Just the small amount of art I have seen in the hallways is FAB!

Well, I'll have a party to warm up the place.  I'll send you an invite soon...  See you at my place.

Cheers,
Mary

Treasure Island Flea -- I'll be there -- come by and say HI!

Hi Everyone,

I'll have a table at the Treasure Island Flea tomorrow and Sunday.  I gotta say that it looks like it is going to be a great time.  First -- Yummy Food!  Second -- amazing views of San Francisco Third -- you can see me!

There is even a fancy Groupon for Treasure Island Flea for the event.  So if you are in the know what that is and how it works -- man I am impressed!  If you don't just click on the link - and join those who are in the know.  :)

It is my birthday too.  No need to bring gifts :)   Just stop by and say Happy Birthday!

Mass Love to all ya' all,
Mary

a good wind a blowing...

Hi Ya,
This is so exciting.   One of my alloneword caps is on the gal who writes one of the best bike blogs around.   Her blog is called change your life ride a bike.  I feel so happy about this.  I got to meet her at the San Francisco Bike Party on friday.  Which was wonderful.   I'm not very comfortable riding in traffic nor with other riders.  I had a great time anyway.  Next time will be even better.
Cheers,
Mary

Bina Bilenky & alloneword caps...

Hi All,
Bina Bilenky emailed these fab photos of her family in my caps!   They can be found at Bilenky Cycle Works in Philadelphia PA.

Here are two articles about Bina Bilenky. 



 I met her last year at the Philadelphia Bike Expo.  It was my first big bike event.  She was (and is) extremely helpful.  I am pretty darn happy she is working on the San Diego Custom Bicycle Show -- April 8,9, and 10 -- and I get to work with her again.

Cheers,
Mary
