Sorry, been at the shop all day and pretty busy. He was wearing a silk suit, fedora, nice tie and some square glasses with the points up. He was filling me in on everything that they are doing regarding electric bikes and he's psyched because they're starting to catch on in cities. We talked about that and basically how a lot of the companies are trying to redesign their lines to have "bikes that do something" instead of just go fast. Such as adapting the cruiser bikes and what Trek is offering vs. the Specialized Globe. He struck me as a really sharp guy that wants to have his hands on everything and holds nothing back when he doesn't like the design of something etc.

All in all, good conversation and he's a really nice guy.
