Riding the Roller
I picked up a roller the other day from Craigslist. It was a new Nashbar for $60. It took me a few times to get used to it. Those things are pretty sketchy at first. I rode if for 17 minutes yesterday while watching a movie. It will be pretty sweet during the 115 degree summer months. Also, check out my "myspace" page and add me as a friend. http://www.myspace.com/billetclothing

B.I.K.E. Video
Just got done watching the B.I.K.E. video from Fountainhead films. Definitely a video to watch. If Jousting is your thing, then hop on a "tall bike" and send your buddy into next week. Here's the link: http://fountainheadfilms.com/

THE FLU
I got the flu over 2 weeks ago and still have a "non productive post infectious cough". I haven't ridden my single speed or been to the bmx track to ride my new custom made Gunslinger Cruiser. Being sick sucks. Anyway this summer I plan on designing some backpacks and a custom pack for my travels to Greece and Rome.

Review of Billet's products
This blog has gotten off topic real quick. Here is a review of some of billets products. I have also made a bunch of custom jersey's, hats, bags and more. Billet Clothing soul is design. Not just clothing but backpacks, decals, hats, and vehicle graphics. The design encompasses all.

ROLLIN' ON KINGS!!!
My friend Chris Fiedler http://www.bikedraz.com/ dropped off my wheels! He is a premier wheel builder here in Phoenix. Here are the pics.
Single Speed Day???
I should be getting my King wheels in today! Yesterday was a perfect day to ride and I had to wait on the sidelines. But today is another day and I'll be rolling Kings. I'll post some pics as soon as they go on. Meanwhile here is a random image.
This picture was taken in Switzerland a few months back. Does anybody know where I can get one of these?

Wagon attatched to Nissan 4X4
Here is the bag installed in the ultimate wagon. Velcro tabs hold it in place. We were thinking of putting some ribs in the panels to give it some form when not filled.

Finished bag
Well, here is the finished bag! It's midnight and I'm done. As you can see the velcro tabs on either side of the nylon handle. These tabs will hold up the bag while in the wagon. On my label I put "bag designed by Slend Threadworks" Just like the old days. This isn't really a billet deal.
Ultimate Wagons Pattern
Here is the start of the Ultimate Wagons bag. I'll keep you updated on progress. It should be done tomorrow. The material reminds me of the old school DG motocross bags. Same color and the material is similar.

Flagstaff circa 1992
Here is a set of bags that I made while at NAU in Flagstaff Az back in 1992. The logo was screened directly onto the nylon. I had problems with the nylon melting and losing shape. This is where it all began. I was a Graphic arts student and broke. I sold many of my bags to all the outdoor stores located around campus.
Flickr
Right now I'm testing this whole Flickr thing. Here is the head tube to my Chumba EVO. This bike is built right!! I think it's perfect for taking up ski lifts and floating down the trails. I've never done the resort thing but this summer I'm planning on heading to Sunrise ski resort. During this blog I'm going to skip from current projects to the history of how Billet came to be.
Welcome to my BloG!!
Welcome to the Billet Clothing Blog/Website. Billet is a one man show with a great history of sewing, design and graphics. Please visit my history of photo's on Flickr I have it split into sections of welding, sewing, bikes and other categories as they develop. Enjoy.
