LAST WEEK

On Sunday there was the opening of the new American Lifestyle shop near Antwerp.

Gus didn't do this half assed, the new shop is huge.

We got a tour of the building by our good friend Daniel who has been a mechanic at A.L. for nearly 23 year (now that is dedication).

Afterwards we went to Gent to have ribs at the Gekroonde Hoofden the best place in Gent and around.

Went to London for work last week, went to the Frieze Art Fair on Wednesday , and strolled around town on Thursday & Friday.

Saw some really cool artworks there some of my favorits are posted down here more will be up on the Eat Dust Blog

Went to say hello to Ian at the Garbstore (Ian will also stock our Eat Dust Denim Collection) on Thursday afternoon bought a lovely mexican blanket style scarf there , would have bought a lot more if my buget would allow it but unfortunately it doesn't.

On Thursday evening there was the opening of the new Denham store on Charlot Road, good times ,saw some good folk there had a few drinks and was of to the other part of town to have dinner with Ian at the Crazy Hommies a mexican joint.

Had Indian food on brick lane , passed by Son Of A Stag (whom will also stock our Eat Dust Denim Collection)

Then it was of to Covent Garden to the Vintage Showroom and by then it was time to get back to the station to catch my train.

As soon as I got back to Antwerp rushed over to the Trix for the RockaBilly Psychosis but more on that in the next post

ONDER DE BRUG THE PIC'S

The plan on Sunday was to ride up to The Snax's which is a retro snackbar owend by Kenny (who is a member of this fine club) where the Gasket Blowers invited us for a breakfast THANKS GUY'S and then to Leuven to the onder de brug Cafe racer meeting, as the rain was pissing down again we (Col Silvertop, Newky Paul, Aline & Me) took the car to Elewijt (near Mechelen) to meet up with them, upon arrival we where not the only ones who took the car only Dave and Tom where brave enough to ride true this crappy ass weather.

Dave aka Rusty took out the XS for the first time and I must say he did a damn fine job on that bike.

And hats of to Alain for another fine paint& lettering job

After the meeting some of us went back to the Snaxs to taste some of the burgers Kenny is making.And I must say they serve some tasty burgers in that joint.

I had the Big Farmer I think and it's like having breakfast,lunch & dinner all at once.

The place is well worth your visit!
