The Scene at the 2019 Cub House Bike and Car Show!

We got the keys to The Cub House 2.0 in June of 2017. We’d been at our original little shop in South Pasadena for a couple of years and I was extremely nervous about the move to much more “upscale” San Marino, even though it was only a few short blocks away. San Marino definitely has a reputation for being rigid, so The Cub House stands out here. Like REALLY stands out. Have you seen our spot? There aren’t too many multicolor service station turned Bike & Plant Stores in our area.

Think about what we use our personal or sick days for? Dumb stuff. Staying home sick (or if you have kids you stay home when they get sick), going to the doctor, going to the DMV, jury duty, visiting in-laws, funerals, etc. Question: What do all of these things have in common? The Answer: None of them are fun. Sure, you can schedule your vacation time around whatever events you want but what if you really just want or need a single day to get your head right? Can you just tell your boss “I think I am going to skip tomorrow and ride my bike locally all day with some buddies. Might do a little swimming too. Fuck it. Maybe even grab tacos after and watch the sunset.” Some of you have awesome bosses but the majority of us are afraid to take a day off for ourselves…

Gettin’ Weird in Tracko Camo

Did you get weird this weekend?

“There is nothing like a good vest for the Spring time. It’s in the 50s when you leave home and it can be 20 to 30 degrees warmer by the middle of the day. I’ve worn this vest over a lightweight jersey with arm-warmers when it’s 50 degrees and I’ve worn it unzipped and flapping in the wind when it’s 80 degrees. Vests are one of the most versatile pieces of outerwear you can own, on the bike or off. We chose camouflage because we wanted something that would disappear, allowing it to be worn with anything.”

I’ve ordered one already but if you haven’t, do so at Tracko. Ace did a great job once again!

I was talking to Alex from Transient a few weeks ago about the new Transient Messenger Bags he’s finishing up. He needed a good messenger in NYC to test one out and give him some PR&D. Luckily everything worked out and a friend of mine will be testing one of these out fulltime, for 6 weeks in the NYC shitstorm we call Winter.

Really stoked on these. Even though I don’t really wear messenger bags, it’s nice to see Alex making some new items. More information to come on the Transient site and thanks to Tracko / Orange 20 / Ace for the pics!

If you wanna see more photos of these fine bags, checkem out over on Orange 20’s Flickr.
