Hi all,
Great meeting tonite. The difference between Jons' 100 (?) year old trike
and the Evingson Ididabike with Wendy and Petes' artisan recumbent somewhere
in between show what phenomenal diversity the club has.
I think that Mark Stonichs' web development of the meetings is an awesome
showcase of this. Clearly the web site is seeing more activity and the
inspiration that we bring to each other can reach far beyond the guy sitting
next to you at the meetings with such a web presence.
I think it would be a good idea to have a questionaire (project sheet) for
the people that put a project on the table so Mark doesn't have to try and
remember all the details (like a name).
It would seem if these were filled out it would be easier for someone in the
virtual meetings to look over the projects and figure out what's going on in
the pictures a bit better.
I guess I think that there would likely end up being a few different
questionares depending on what type of project it is.
I have started a "Project Sheet" with a built bicycle in mind. Please take a
look at it and give ideas to me and I'll send an updated project sheet to
Mark to check out.
Would anybody be interested in starting a "project sheet" for a commercial
bike being shown?
What other types of "project sheets" might help?
