A friend and neighbor of Timbuk2 popped by our office yesterday to show us her six year-old messenger. She rocks it on her bicycle or motorcycle every day in San Francisco.

She recently bumped into this Showstopper, Justin Lovato, at the Lopo Gallery on Polk Street. Justin is a visual artist who lives in Berkeley and has traveled to (mother) Russia with his [...]
