LIGHTS OUT: Long, wild day. Got a shit ton done. Met one Mr. Caleb Owen Everitt, who was dragged up here by Jordan Hufnagel of the unfuckwithable Hufnagel Cycles. Austin, Tex. dragged up here by Indianapolis, Ind.

Anyhoo, I’ve been a fan of Caleb’s stuff for some time, so it was cool to meet him, even though I didn’t know a goddamn thing about who I was talking to the whole time. Weird. Sorry, man. Awesome work, forever. Come back sometime, buster.
