2011 NAHBS: Best Steel Bike

2011 NAHBS Recon: Bishop Bikes, originally uploaded by John Prolly.

My Columbus MS track bike won Best Steel Bike at the 2011 NAHBS! I am really excited and had a great time at NAHBS this year. I met so many great people and meeting and hanging out with these people is always the best part of bike shows. Dan Artley’s bike and the Brett Horton town bike were also the favorite of many who came by to see the bikes. The Horton bike’s female counterpart, Shelly Horton’s bike by Bilenky Cycle Works, was also a hit and won best lugged bike at the show. Dinucci deservedly won Best in Show with his town bike. I am a big fan. I will be posting some pictures to flickr soon of the MS bike, Dan’s Rando, and the Horton Town bike all built up. More soon!

There is a Bishop rolling around Paris, and now a Bishop is hitting the streets of Shanghai. This bike belongs to Eric and he just sent pics of the bike built up. I’m glad it reached him and okay and happy to hear that he is enjoying his ride. See more on my flickr and Eric’s flickr.

Process pic of preliminary paint by Joe Bell; not finished yet, but masking looks great

Joe Bell sent some pictures of the Horton Town Bike being painted. The work looks great, and I can’t wait to see the finished product at NAHBS. It will be the first time I will see the bike built up and painted. Thanks Joe for doing a great job on the bike. Come by the Bishop booth at NAHBS to see the bike!
