BCW Does Some Spring Cleaning
Bilenky Cycle Works has been doing some major rearranging and cleaning over the past couple of weeks. Workbenches have been shifted, fresh pegboard hung, a new machine has been installed and a 5,000 lb. milling machine was moved. These changes have resulted in much more workspace, walk space and bicycle storage. STAY TUNED FOR A NEW SHOP TOUR VIDEO!

BCW Goes To The "Flicks"
Steven Bilenky, Simon Firth, Pat Gillham, and Pat Gaffney enjoyed a lovely evening of cinema at the Ritz Theatre last Wednesday. The group was privy to a special advance screening of The Flying Scotsman. The Flying Scotsman is based on a true story about Graeme Obree, a Scottish cyclist, determined to break Francesco Moser's Hour Record and win the World Championship. Obree struggles against his own mental illness and the resentful hostility of sports authorities. The film was a bit sappy but what do you expect when the plot of a film is an athlete overcoming adversity. The movie did feature some neat bike footage as well as a brief shot of Obree brazing. Folks from Bicycle Therapy and Time Cycle where also present. All had a grand time.
