NAHBS 2008
Friday February 6, 2008
I played hooky from the shop today and headed down to Portland for the North American Handmade Bicycle Show (NAHBS). It was a lot of fun to go to a trade show, not as an exhibitor, or even really as a buyer, but just to look!
Today was an industry only day at the show, so there were not a lot of crowds. It made it easy to really see things, take photos, and visit. I had plenty of time to see all of the booths and visit with many friends in the industry that I see all to rarely.
There was a lot of nice eye candy at the show. To give you a little taste, here are some of the photos I took today. I will try to post some more tomorrow. The NAHBS runs Saturday and Sunday this weekend in Portland. NAHBS 2008 website.
Colorful Pegoretti Paint!

Some builders are still pinning & brazing. This head tube is from a Palermo frameset.
