Kevin,

I really like your work. It's clear you have a "good eye" for details, do really clean work, and are a creative thinker. Excellent traits for a custom framebuilder.

I think perhaps you would feel at home at the San Diego Custom Bicycle Show and your style and work would be well received in Southern California. Hopefully you can consider attending the 2010 SDCBS. We even have lower rates for builders East of the Mississippi River (I think you make it by several thousand miles!). We especially welcome ALL framebuilders and plan to keep the ratio of framebuilders to non-framebuilders at a 3 to 1 ratio; in other words, we are going to remain a custom framebuilder show and not allow our show to morph into a "regular" consumer bike show.

Registration is open for the 2010 SDCBS at SanDiegoCustomBicycleShow.com Really hope you can make it and we can meet in person. Or you can try to attend the Cirque next year, which I always attend.

Hi listers, Just put some pics up on my flickr site of 'KOF' stuff.....including my version of a 'Pacenti' fork crown........not quite as 'sharp' as Peter Weigle's fine example!.....but certainly safer whilst it is in a unbuilt state.

Eventually I should have much more to see once I get my finger out and get on with stuff!
