1. How long have you been working for Brodie?
6 yrs
2. What are your daily duties?
Depends on the year, but during our busiest time usually working on web, catalogue and booking forms
3. Favourite Brodie moment?
Going out with the Loeka crew during our annual trade show. A harmless dessert turned ugly when we decided the $20 all you can drink wrist band for $20. From play fighting in the hallways to getting in trouble with the security guard, it was an awesome night; the hangover..... not so much.
4. Do you remember your first bike?
My Rambo plastic tricycle... It was hardcore. Besides that my green bmx bike; left it on the front lawn and haven't seen it since. Vancouver is Brutal, I've lost two bikes to theft!
5. Is there one bike in the current lineup that you have a special fondness for?
The 2010 Ocho..... Spicer did a great job of spec'ing it and picking the colours. I've already built one up for myself, tossed on some hydraulic disc brakes and have been trying to get back in shape for the hockey season.
6. Were you born in Vancouver? If not, where did the glorious moment take place?
Quesnel. Not so glorious though, it's a pretty small city: Hence moving to Vancouver after I was only 3 months old.
7. Did you have a hero to look up to when you were growing up? If so, who was it?
I've always looked up to my dad. Not many people can say they've started from scratch and have accomplished so much. I admire that, he's always been a hard worker and I'd be so lucky to follow in his footsteps.
8. How would you describe your wardrobe?
Depends what I'm doing and where I'm going, but usually you'll find me in jeans, t-shirt and kicks; nothing too fancy.
9. Where were you Tuesday, July 30, 1996? hint: Olympic year.
Good god, I can't remember where I was yesterday let alone 13 years ago.
10. Do you have a favourite kind of music you listen to?
Usually I'll be found listening to Hip Hop, Rap, Rock, Alternative or Electronic.
11. If you could eat something every day, what would it be? (fave meal/style)
It would probably be sushi, or some form of chicken. I'm not usually picky, so whatever is in front of me is usaully good.
12. Cook at home or dine out?
Dine out... Otherwise I'd be eating eggs, cereal or some other instant meal haha.
13. Do you Tweet?
Nope, drives me crazy when people stand there tweeting every 5 minutes. I think it's a waste of time...
14. Coffee or tea?
Coffee.... sadly it takes two cups during the week to get me somewhat functional
15. Starbuck's or indie?
Whatever is closest usually
16. Mac or PC?
Mac, hands down. It's funny, when I first started I refused to have a Mac so I had the only PC in the office. It eventually broke down and gave Mac a shot; I haven't looked back since. Trying to convince my girlfriend to switch to mac as well, but she's as stubborn as I once was haha.
17. Cell, iPhone or Blackberry?
Crackberry. Oh so addictive.
18. Road ride or trail ride?
Both. Commute to work, mountain for fun.
19. Derailleur, single speed or fixed gear?
Internal 8 Speed for now.... I'm out of shape though, I need all the gears I can get!
20. Slipons, laces or Velcro?
All 3.... sometimes it's just too much work tying up those laces.
21. Black lace or red?
Once again, you have to have variety: BOTH!
