At lease Final Cut Pro is good for a laugh.
An era in Seattle messenger and cycling culture has ended. The Queen Anne Counterbalance has closed. There’s a lot of culture on those walls.

Saturday morning. Pouring rain. Freezing cold. Good thing I don’t own a rain coat.

There were more Seattlites that showed up than Portlanders (so it seemed). No one from SF was there.
Saturday night hosted the first of a three part competition to find out who would host the SSXCWC in 2010.
SEA vs. SF
Isn’t that a grudge match you’ve been waiting for your whole life?

Sally from Seattle answering the most important question of the night:
“IUD’s or DUI’s?”
This is the part where I scream so loud I completely lose my voice and can’t talk for a whole week.

Good bye, and good night.
