Bye bye, big brother

As of tomorrow, our home will be a little quieter, Memphis will have one fewer cyclist and bike mechanic, and baby Fausto will have to wait until November to smile at his big brother, Wen. After a year in Memphis, Wen will be taking his new skills and his much more impressive resume back to the Bay Area to pursue a career in the bicycle industry and to reconnect with his many, many loved ones in California. We'll miss him like crazy, but we counted ourselves very lucky all year that he gave up everything the Bay Area offers to spend the year with us in the South. And although it's likely Wen will never call the south "home" after this, there's no denying that Memphis has been good for him and to him. He'll be missed by his friends and family, loyal customers, cyclist who rode and raced with and against him, and his fans, not least of whom is his baby brother.
