Random Update - December 10, 2009

Hey people! Hope you're geared up for the holidays. Our Christmas ordering deadline is coming up quick, so if you want something from us by then, get those orders in by December 14th!

Not much happening on the Gap of course, we got a little snow a few days ago, then a strong wind storm over the past couple of days. Lori and I shot a little video on our way across to Knoxville yesterday, and that's posted below. Consider utilizing that subscription option over there on the right if you want to be notified of these updates. I promise not to do anything ugly with your email address.

Also worth mentioning that this month's issue of 2 Wheel Tuner (December) has a little blurb about our friends and Gap regulars Randy and Sherry Sautner...better known as CruiseMissle. They built a trick custom V-Max tribute to Kenny Roberts, and we spent a couple of weeks shooting about a billion pictures, many with our model friend Leighann Word. Highlights can be found here. A few teasers:

And now as promised, a few fresh vids to help ward off the winter blues:

Random Update - November 27, 2009

Happy Thanksgiving y'all! As always, photos from the last six years are available in Our Store here.

This year we've got some new custom holiday greeting cards available for ya:

You can customize them with your photos and personal greetings, but get those orders in ASAP...they take a couple of weeks for the lab to print off.

And we've also added some new Customizable Gift items too:

You KNOW your friends and family are just dying to for hints on what to get you, so there ya go! =)

We're about done shooting the Dragon for the year...may play around with the cameras a little now and then while we're out there hanging out, just to stay in practice and bring y'all something for the occasional update. Plus I got one of the new GoPro HD video cameras that I'm excited to put to use for ya. We've been working with Ron and Nancy from Tail of the Dragon.com on their new DVD. (preview here) We shot a lot of the footage with the previous low-rez GoPro, and it's looking good, so the next volume should be even sharper.

Finally, I want to say thanks to all of our customers who've made it possible for us to keep doing this, and our partners for all their hard work. Lori and I still have to work very hard at this, and stress over finances from time to time, but we are living the life and grateful for it. There are much worse jobs out there for sure, but we could never do it without your support.

Ok, on to the highlights!
