Well, I just visited Vanilla

[jimcav]

Down here on a navy recruiting effort at PSU, so realized i had time to zip over there this morning. Sacha and co are a very unassuming group. got to see the bikes in there various stages. amazingly clean space considering everything is done right there except the paint. an of course some amazing frames that are complete or near complete. Just thought i'd say i envy those who are on the "list", but i really do enjoy my not-made-for me- vanilla (but aspire to get on that list).

happy riding--can't wait to get back home and ride

Ain't it funny how so many bike shops can be all-too-assuming and the (top shelf) builders never are?

Vanilla are friendly. :) It used to be a tiny corner of the same building a few years ago. It's really impressive to see how his workshop has grown in just a few years.

I'm hoping to stop by on thursday the 7th. Probably around 3pm or so.
