Barcode

Ever forget the web address to our blog? Or just can't remember how to spell Machiela? Well we just stumbled across the perfect solution: a barcode. Just print this barcode image off and keep it in a safe place where you won't forget (we suggest permanently affixing it next to your monitor). The next time you want an update of what we have been up to, just take out your smartphone, scan the barcode image, and within seconds you will be directed to our blog. Ok, seriously, its pretty cool a barcode, or QR code as they officially call it, can link you to our blog. Plus, in our opinion its one of the best looking barcodes we have ever seen.

Rack

With the acquisition of Mitch's single speed for his birthday and a possible new addition arriving sometime in April, Bekah "encouraged" Mitch to come up with a more permanent storage solution for our two-wheeled friends. Armed with SketchUp, some boards, two boxes of screws, a handful of tools, and his trusty friend Dan, Mitch set out to create the perfect budget bike storage solution. He's not claiming he obtained perfection, but with $33 he came pretty darn close. The result was one spectacular looking rack. While the scaled replica above is only holding two bikes (note their uncanny resemblance to Mitch's bikes) a closer inspection reveals a hanger for a yet a third bike. Bekah is pretty impressed with her new rack. Curious how it turned out? Check out the pic.
