Open House photos

We had our big Open House and Bike Blessing Saturday. It was a wicked good day. I was really pleased at what a success. We had over 500 bikes throughout the day. I will share some awesome photo's everyday this week so keep checking back!

These photo's are from our pal Mike Keegan.

Twosome!

I haven't laughed this hard in a long time! Friday afternoon my BFF Sandy and I were downstairs and who comes around the corner outside but Jay and Jeff (who is Sandy's BF, I know your lovin the initials) on this Twosome bicycle.
It was the funniest thing! Of course we had to try it out. I got on with Jay and let me tell you I was a little nervous because you are behind someone, no brakes and really no control of steering... I guess it is very similar to riding on the back of a motorcycle except you have to peddle! Maybe that's why I always wanted to ride my own bike... but it was fine with Jay leading.
My dad bought this at an auction a while ago and it has been up on the mezzanine ever since. It was definitely worth the buy just for the laughs. Too bad my dad wouldn't get on it!

Flames! Not Perewitz flames either!

Last night my dad called and said he was standing in the parking lot of the shop and could see flames from the junk yard down the street! "Jod, Wood's is on fire!"

So of course I wanted to see for myself. There isn't much action in Bridgewater so we have to take advatage of it when there is. I picked my friend Sandy up and we took a drive to see the fire. We couldn't get near it because they had the street's blocked off but we managed to get a view of some flames! We went down a side street that is on a hill that over looks the junk yard. It was a huge ball of fire. There were a couple ladder trucks fully extended fighting the blaze. Fortunately there wasn't anyone injured in the blaze.

The odd thing about this is that there was another fire last week at another junk yard down the street. The shop is in the middle of the 2 junk yards that are only 1 mile apart. I am wondering if one fire has anything to do with the other...
