@graham. Agreed.
Also, will Julia be using the teeth in any of her designs?

Thanks for the news. That shop is one of Portland's most noted. Bike accidents happen like Mr Plazm and we send best wishes for full recovery to all.

Facial injuries are really not funny, and a helmet will do nothing to help prevent them. Hopefully she has insurance and will recover from the accident just fine

Here's a link to the photo from the accident. I was wearing a helmet, and yeah, I keep kind of laughing that my face protected my helmet.
