steveb leatherworks: the blather

Went to the IMS show on Friday in NYC. I was thinking that the plane that used the Hudson as a runway the night before, might cause a bit of travel hardship if i were inclined to take my car, so a smarter, more sensisble head prevailed and i took the train down to NYC.  The weather has been a bit nutty lately – warm, followed by a cold snap with snow, followed by rain…cycled over and over. Friday we were in a cold snap kinda way, so i dressed in the puffy down, the best damn kind of coat when it is cold  – the North Face 700 Nuptse, secret weapon in the war on cold.

Like to shout out to my friends at Advanstar, Jeff D, in particular, the show director who graciously set me up with a Press pass so i could get into the show before the crowds, snap a  few pics and shoot the shit with some friends in the business, before the  crowds got thick, as they are known to do here. saw my friends Andrew Rosa of Rosa’s Cycle Shop, Keino, of Keino Cycles, the Indian Larry/greasemonkey setup with Jeff Decker, as special guest, Paul Spradlin of Underground Cycles, Buzz from American Iron…hmmm…

I have a bunch of pics and will cycle through some of them over the next few days. Haven’t had the time to shoot the leather stuff going out the door, so let me entertain you with some of the latest moto news. I have a few installments coming up, if you want to see the latest steveb leatherwork gallery, click here
