Sneak peak at the new AC Service Center...

Here is our excuse for the major lack of blog updates the last month. Looking back we are pretty psyched how fast we got our new Service Center built up. So, if you are local come on in and see what Ralf and Kris are working on and ask what we can do for you. If you are not local, sorry, but enjoy the pics anyhow!
The day before this was where Criag Upton did fits, the next day Peter had the benches built and installed.
Little lacking, right?
More benches looking out the front window. Finally, after a long while we have a view again!
Then Max came with his crew and put down our colors...
Exciting painting footage. Super nice work though Max
Concrete delivered yesterday from Mike and now we are mostly up and running. This is where the bikes get built, upgraded, cleaned and maintained at Above Category. Come on in for a closer look! Thanks for looking...

Views from today's ride...

Another gorgeous day for riding here. Sorry for doing this but here is yet another installment of why it's so great to be able to live and ride here... Got out a little later than usual, sat around in the chamois for a few hours before I just got up, grabbed the bike and bolted. Today was a pretty chill hour and a half but the main reason I wanted to get out was to get the first ride in on the new Shimano Dura-Ace C35 wheels. More on them later, here's a few pics from our Paradise Loop...
Nothing like new tubular wheels, begging to get out...
The first stop here is more than halfway around the 25ish mile loop. This is in Tiburon, right next to the ferry. Not a bad backdrop for the KOBH
Just look up and left from the other picture above and you see a bit of Angel Island to the left and of course San Francisco dead ahead...
Then head through the back streets of Tiburon, near the police station and hang a left and quick right at the roundabout. Head up the hill and stop here. Not only is this one of the craziest pieces of property I've seen, the view to Sausalito and all the boats is not too bad either.
Flip the KOBH around and there is Mt. Tam. Above Category is right at the base...
You know, I forgot where I took this one, but no matter, pretty sweet...
