    I am in no ways a photographer but here are some of the pictures I took at the NAHBS in Sacramento a few weeks ago.

    Mt. Shasta


    rental car (37 mpg average on the trip)


    Bad picture but these have quite a presence, next time I am in the Portland area I plan on taking a tour of their shop


    Groovy cycles, I bought one of his luv handles for my new jamis


    Desalvo - local guy


    Santana



    I like the cable stop on this cross bike



    Soft-tail and a lefty on a fat bike?!?!


    Rock Lobster, their second mtb ever built


    Why should lefty's have all the fun?



    I liked the hand cut lugs on this one


    Lots of stainless at this years show





    More stainless but my favorite bike from the show



    Random other pictures






































    I didn't stay as long as I would have liked but it was getting crowded. Also after talking with John from Land Shark I may be ordering another frame from him late this year.

    Not really. I have a few more that turned out blurry so I deleted them. I would have taken more but it was getting very crowded after about the first 30 minutes.

    Yep John sold his torch a few months ago. I still want one of his steel frames so I am keeping my eye out for one in my size when I have the money for it.

    Thanks for the heads up! Though there are several that pop up for sale in my area since they are made here. I tell you my land shark is by far the best riding frame I have ever ridden, I tell everyone the only thing wrong with it is you need another.
