We did a family run at the Q BBQ fest at Empower field. The reward at the end was delicious. We got to have all-you-can-eat ribs made by BBQ rib makers all over Colorado and Texas.

Dan has always had this idea that we should make our own bike-powered ice-cream maker. So we got some parts: one bike stand (garage sale), one manual powered ice-cream maker (outer bucket for ice, inner canister with paddle for ice-cream and a churning mechanism on top), some rock salt, a conveyor belt, one large pulley and one small pulley.
