OK, I admit that I am a bit biased in this case, but I just love these drawings. This scan is just a section of the custom gift wrap that my kids made to wrap a birthday present for me last week. I almost didn’t want to open the gift because the paper looked so good, but I proceeded carefully so I could save the drawings. I like the bug shaped bike at the bottom. I’m not sure how it works, but I still like it. Also notice the drawing of a trail-a-bike in the center. We got one a few months ago and my 5 year old thinks that it is the greatest invention ever. She might be right; it is a lot of fun. The kids like to ride their own bikes, but they really love being able to go fast (at least what they consider fast) behind my bike.

On an unrelated note, I just received the annual design review issue of ID magazine. The Cervelo P3 Carbon is listed as an honorable mention in the consumer products category. It is worth noting that the jury didn’t get to see the bike itself, only photos. Congrats to Cervelo on the recognition.
