    Casanova now has Revolution. I am super stoked.

    It looks like only Anti-Hero and A Little Crazy to start.

    Sweet! I've been hounding them on Twitter to get here. That's kind of close. Requires that dreaded river crossing.

    It looks like if you cut north, hang a right around Lake Itasca, head straight east to Duluth and then drive along the east bank of the St. Croix, you can avoid rivers altogether.

    No, no, no, everyone knows you just pay for the ferry. You'll never make it to Oregon if your wagon tips over and you lose half your supplies!

    A few months ago my Artisan rep told me that Todd was going to be a rotating offering with Abrasive, and Blakr. Todd will fill the months long void between Blakr and Abrasive. Your guess is as good as mine as to whether or not this is still true, or if Surly changed its mind.

    Would be great if they dropped blakkr out of that trifecta and just rotated Todd and Abrasive. Seems hard to believe they sell a comparable amount of it compared to the other two, but what do I know...

    I'm pretty sure Surly only did one run of Blakkr this year, and it only lasted a couple weeks in my store. There actually are a lot of people who look forward to Blakkr with great zeal. Also, I remember we still had Abrasive the whole time Blakkr was on the shelf. So it kind of is as though they are running Todd and Abrasive the way you would like.

    But then you'd have to cross the dreaded St. Louis River to get to the east bank.

    Technically, he'd be crossing the St. Louis Bay. So the irrational fear of river water wouldn't even come in play.
