... your copy is finally on its way!
YES! This has been a long process, but all you patient souls are finally getting your books.
While I’m waiting for a batch of traditionally printed books to come in, I pulled the trigger with CreateSpace, an Amazon affiliate. CreateSpace prints and ships the books on demand; my profit margin is way lower, but it gets the books out there right now.

Finally!
Today I did the last round of edits—really, I mean it this time—and exported the print-ready pdfs. Tomorrow I meet with a potential investor. Based on that negotiation I’ll decide whether to do on-demand digital printing (low initial cost, low profit margin) or print 5,000 copies on a traditional press (high initial cost, higher profit margin). The finish line is so close I just want to sprint for it, but I need to stay smart.
The proofs look great. I can’t wait to get this book out there!
OK, OK … leelikesbikes is now rocking the Twitter action.
I promise not to tell you what ate for breakfast or what I’m watching on TV (unless it relates to fun on bikes). Twitter seems like a quick, concise way to connect the nation and grow the stoke.

The Lyons Bike Park is already a year old. She’s in great shape, but we want to give her some love before next months’ Lyons Outdoor Games.
Please come on out next Saturday, May 29, to clean up, make improvements, ride bikes and eat BBQ. Work goals include axing weeds, clearing rocks, re-shaping jumps and (if we have enough workers) building a new inner line on the pump track.
We’ll be out there all day. Who’s in?
