Asian Styles…

Tue, May 11, 2010

No, I’m not talking about the hottie on a PK Ripper in my last post! Ha ha. I’m talking about my Asian adventure that I’m currently on. I’m at the Taipei airport right now headed to Hong Kong. Then off to mainland China from there. I got this stuff down pat now

I spent last week in Philly working @ SE & came back home on Saturday to 75 degrees & sun in Huntington Beach. Was such a nice welcome home. Then on Saturday night I went to Neal Wood’s 5-year wedding anniversary party. It was cool as heck. Some of the 90′s BMXers were there as well: Dale Holmes, Alan Foster, Carter Holland, Robbie Miranda, Paul Roberts, the TM, & I. My trip back home was a whopping 36 hours before heading off to Asia.

The purpose of this trip is the catalog photoshoot of all of the 2011 model year SE bikes. This is when I can see the last 6 months of “work” come into reality. You can see the frame drawings, spec sheets, and graphics. But until you’ve actually seen the completed bike in person, you really haven’t seen it. I’m pretty psyched to get over to our factory to see the fruits of my labor.

I’ll be over in China for the next couple weeks. Then I’m headed off to the Philippines for a much needed vacation & adventure trip. I really haven’t planned anything. The only thing that is certain is that I’m flying in and out of Manilla. I’m not sure where I’ll go when I’m there. We’ll see where the wind takes me. But I am thinking about this island: http://www.boracayonline.com/ -Voted one of the 10 best islands in the world. Either there or here: http://www.boracayonline.com/ Or…. I’ve got a ton of other spots I’d like to check out. We’ll see where the adventure unfolds!

Ok, gotta hop on the ferrt boat for Mainland China. Laters!
