Roberta, sorry I missed you at PBE -- but thanks for the info about free 
rides to Center City with an Amtrak ticket (I've always taken the subway 
for previous visits). Hope to meet up again!

Here are a few of my pics -- I'll have the rest up on my Flickr sometime 
soon.

How cool that you know the person who bought the display A.H. Hilsen!
Excited to see the TiGr CroMo "Blue" lock prototype. I plan to order a 
Mini+ when the KickStarter goes public.
Nice collection of photos!
Thanks for sharing them,

What were you thinking of posting a customized saddle with a heart rivet?  Leah 
is already obsessing how to get her silly little hands on the heart shaped 
jewel .
I so wanted to head there at the 11th hour.  Putting it on my bucket list and 
checking it off next year.  See you at the Taco truck.  If anyone has trees I 
can hang a hammock from I will find a way to stay warm.  Love fall camping.

There was an A Homer Hilsen, Cheviot, and a double top tube Atlantis in the 
booth, with awesome Will and Vince, and the booth seemed to have good traffic. 
I took a few pics and will get them posted in a day or two.  Got to meet Andy 
from Pittsburgh, and Melanie.  I was looking for John (the Riv guys said they 
saw him) but didn't catch up.  Perhaps next year we should all just meet at the 
food truck at noon.

Perhaps you'll be able to come down next year.  The show gets bigger every year.

Hello Roberta,

I'm planning to come on Saturday, driving to the Wissahickon trail head, 
having breakfast at Bruno's and then riding my QB down the trail, along 
Kelly Drive and then taking the left turn onto Race St. to the convention 
center. Not sure which of my teenage sons will be joining me or if my 
friend and his son will make it, but I'll be there with my Sackville sack 
slung over my shoulder. I may also be wearing a black Walz bike cap. I'll 
be looking for you there!

Fantastic.  Please excuse this if you already know...

Amtrak arrives at 30th Street Station.  To get to the convention center, 
exit out of the east exit towards downtown (The exit might be called 29th 
Street) and walk (or ride your bikes) down JFK or Market Street (use Market 
Street for bikes, as it won't turn into a one way, in the wrong direction) 
until you get to Broad Street (if Broad had a number, it would be 14th 
Street).  It's about a mile.  The convention center entrance might be a 
block or to to the north, on Broad.

Or take a local commuter train (not the subway) one stop east to Suburban 
Station and walk two more blocks east to Convention Center.  These inter 
city stops are usually free.  Or Uber/Taxi.

See you then!

Roberta

My wife and I will be at the PBE on Saturday (traveling on Amtrak). I'll 
keep an eye out for that Riv cap; I'd love to hear how the rest of the

Roberta, hope to see you there. 

My friend and I are staying up the line at Conshohocken since the center 
city hotel prices were crazy, even ten weeks ago. The train was a a brief 
idea but the complexity of our acceptabel hotel rate radius, the car and 
the commuter line won.

I'll be there. I'll certainly take pictures. It's a gathering of bikes and 
bike folks which is different than the bike-shaped things and product 
people of other trade shows. Advertising and selling are certainly the 
attraction for the trade participants, the character of it has a stronger 
pull (My old friend, Ryan of Galaxy Gearworks now in Albuquerque is driving 
over with his display bikes).
