Yo George:
Finally figured out how to get in touch with you? Still living in NH as a hermit. I write a blog that gets published by Rag Blog (and Downtown Express) occasionally. I hope you’re well.

Dear Carl,
I am looking for contact with you, concerning a photo I would like to use for a Dutch publication called “Food for the City. A Future for the Metropolis” and is concerned on how we would feed the world in 2050, and all the necessary consequences and problematics involved.
I have emailed you on the above email address and also tried to reach you on your phone number with no success.
If you see this note could you please email me at dyveke@xs4all.nl ?
Thank you.
Best regards, Dyveke Rood
I would like to buy an Abici Granturismo Uomo in grey for someone that lives in New York. Do you have this bike for sale at the moment or if not can you order it for me?
I am about to move to San Fran and want to buy one of your custom bikes, but you it seems like your doors are close. Please let me know if and where you have relocated.
George – Saw you pedal by the other day. Do you have a location? Will The Hub return? -e
Will the HUB be returning? Wanted to buy one of your bicycles I saw last year. I believe it was Italian, had he look of an old ten speed? Cannot remember the name.
Would love to hear back.
Thanks!
James

Hey, George!! I love your blog site. Way cool. The kid event is the bomb. Next time, I’ll bring my extensive lego collection! Thanks for being our Yuba Bicycles dealer and helping those New Yorkers get around with their kids on the only bike for kids that’s cool enough for NYC!
