    Missed getting 'early entry experience' tickets --- for $35/ea . . . but? . . .

    . . . traffic wasn't that bad --- + my buddy 'DW' was driving, so we could take the 'HOV' (= 'high occupancy vehicle,' aka 'diamond') lane . . .

    . . . and we rolled onto downtown ~8-ish

    Lotsa construction goin' on, thereabouts --- high-/density rise apartments, looks like

    Dropped-in to The Pantry ('est. 1924')for breakfast . . . = two-times:
    ..eggs (over easy)
    ..sausage paddies (massive)
    ..pancakes (ditto)
    ..glasses o' 2%

    (Burp!)

    Paid for DW's, too --- he was driving, after all . . . if I can call it that . . . = ~$40


    Lasted me all day . . .



    . . . 'cept for a 32-oz Dr P that I absorbed at the venue

    . . . '3D Printing'

    'Naked' bike

    Frame, mostly, I think


    No idea if this is a 'real/functioning/useable/actual' device --- no lights, signals, license plate brackets, etc . . or just a bunch o' plastic bits mocked-up to demonstrate what's possible using this technology


    Still --- v kool --- IMO . . . especially that tank!
