Relámpago Wheelery

No, not going thru a break up, in fact, I am happier than I’ve ever been. This scribed nugget of truth, just a little reminder of how quickly it can all vanish into thin air and that, I think, you gotta love hard as scary as it is. Much Love to the relampagitos that keep this shop open. Boom chica boom. #yanoestoyaquí #wheelbuilding #lovehard #losterkos #cumbiaisforwarriors #enbiciporvidaBiciosos!

Wielding builds. Building wheels. Amid the instability a stable thing spoked and tuned like a guitar gyrates into someone’s life. Seguimos Trabajando para un futuro cierto. Animo BiciGente.#wheelbuilding #wheelfanatyk #wheelsmith #schmidtdynamo #velocityusa #klite_dynamo_power #

Thank you all for being a rad community surviving in an oppressive system of avarice, unchecked consumerism and misguided visions. Much Love. Mucha Bici. #fucktrump #blacklivesmatterla #cargobikes #thefutureisours
