Brian looked very confused, but was grinning from ear to ear after Paul explained why the bike was built in the first place. The bike turned out so well, it was used as a prototype for others that followed. Some of the original one-off items have made their way into the new PYO catalog. Brian is happy, subsequent customers with bikes based on Brian's design are happy, and Paul came away with a few new items to add to his inventory. If this story only had a horse, a castle, and some kind of lady in distress, it would have made a pretty nice fairy tale. According to Brian, it is - in a way. He says it all feels like some kind of weird dream that he has yet to awake from.
Some guys have all the luck.
