1700 miles, from Omaha NE to Bend OR. What a trip.

I know I keep saying this, but a comprehensive design/ build/ race post is comming soon.

And shameless self promotion, I designed the body, by myself. Entire design and build took 8 months. We’re all really happy with the result.

Bend is the home of one of my favorite breweries, Deschutes.  I hope you rewarded yourself for a job well done by paying them a visit.
