		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ [1]"Give a man a fish, he eats for a day; teach a man to fish, he feeds his family for a lifetime; teach him make fishing gear, he creates jobs for his neighbors..."
So goes the slogan on the website for Craig Calfee's newest business, bamboosero.com.  It adds "Substitute bicycles for fish and you've got the idea behind Bamboosero."

Bamboosero is a group of independent bamboo frame builders that is spread across the developing world.  Craig Calfee taught his techniques for joining specially treated bamboo with epoxy soaked wraps of natural fiber to people from Ghana, Zambia, Uganda, The Philippines, and other countries.  Each builder works with their own local bamboo and local fiber.  They impart their own style to the frames and offer them for sale to the local market or through Bamboosero.com.  Every frame is stress tested and all export frames are inspected by Craig Calfee or one of his specially trained representatives.  The Bamboosero concept allows bamboo frames to be made available at more affordable prices, and creates jobs and the capacity for a fledgling bicycle industry in developing countries.

Bamboosero is using NAHBS to showcase the best of what each builder can produce.  Visitors to the Bamboosero booth will have the opportunity to vote on the best of the group.  This will motivate all the Bambooseros to refine their craft and stretch their boundaries of what is possible.

		<title>NAHBS: Shimano Signs as NAHBS Title Sponsor</title>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[Leader bicycle components maker positions itself at forefront of Handmade Market

Summary: Shimano has signed a one-year title sponsorship deal with the North American Handmade Bicycle Show.

INDIANAPOLIS - The North American Handmade Bicycle Show Inc., owner of the world's leading custom bicycles show, has signed a one-year title sponsorship deal with Shimano American Corporation., the world's leading bicycle components manufacturer. The correct title of the event is now: Shimano North American Handmade Bicycle Show.

NAHBS founder and show director, Don Walker, said, "Shimano has long been an industry leader, and I am thrilled to have them come on board as the title sponsor of NAHBS! Shimano's involvement with NAHBS started at our San Jose show in 2006, and they are one of two major players that have been with us consistently since then. Their dedication to innovation and their support of the independent framebuilder is second to none. I couldn't be happier that they wanted to step up their involvement. I hope this relationship will continue to blossom for years to come!"

Having been involved either as an exhibitor and lower-level sponsor of NAHBS for many years, Shimano recognizes the value in supporting the steadily growing handmade community through this show. NAHBS has served as a contact point for input and feeback from the myriad framebuilders - both commercial and hobbyists - who attend the show. Shimano welcomed the opportunity to step up to the role of leading sponsor.

Shimano's brand manager Dustin Brady, said, "We are excited to once again be a supporter of NAHBS and see what gems these talented framebuilders have created. The show provides a grand stage for some of the world's greatest framebuilders to showcase their unique works of art, and our commitment to this event helps support our customers in their creative endeavors. NAHBS also allows us to interact with the public and demo our advanced component systems like Dura-Ace Di2 and Ultegra, which customers can of course equip on their bikes."

The Shimano sponsorship includes the Shimano Bike of the Day story for the NAHBS blog during the show, which will put the spotlight on innovative or stylish use of Shimano products in show bicycles.

About NAHBS

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[Hidden away in the farmlands of North Carolina in the town of Advance, in an old smoke house where hams used to cure is the shop of David Mills.  Where hidden from prying eyes handmade bicycles spring from the Earth as if by magic.  Cool!  Maybe it is an art learned in the far off land of Oregon at UBI, maybe it's because Dave has read The Lord of the Rings so many times he can speak Elvish.  All anyone knows for sure is that the shop is the size of a Ford station wagon and has been used many times to explain why the yard hasn't been mowed.
