No camps listed here yet?
Well, I have led the way before and can do it again.
First… if you don’t recognize me… it is because I have largely retired from ePlaya.
But in the years 2012, ’13, and ’14… most of our camp-members were from ePlaya, and I shall certainly not discard that connection.
We are...
Elliot’s Naked Bicycle Service, Massage Clinic, Foot Washing Salon, Body Painting Studio, and Piano Lounge.
Though, officially… only Elliot’s Bicycle Service.
Last year we were placed in the 3:00 & G Plaza, and we repaired 725 bicycles in our Main Shop.
And while we count that as success, this year we are doing a number of things differently.
For one thing, we will be in two locations!
Yes, we are setting up a “branch office”, or “satellite shop”, “franchise”, “outpost”, “sister camp”, or “spin-off” location, the better to serve a wider area of BRC.
Also, the “mother camp” will naturally be smaller, and that will be a great relief to the camp lead, who must organize stuff, and is lousy at delegating.
This theme camp thread is about the “mother camp” – Elliot’s Naked Bicycle Service (etcetera, etcetera).
The “offspring” camp is named Bicycle Repair Conflux (featuring Naked Elliot’s Original Recipe), and your humble camp lead will split his time between the two camps – probably something like 75% here and 25% there. (“Camp Founder on the bridge!”)
As always, we are open to a few new members, including Burgins, and especially skilled bicycle technicians.
And pianists.
Yes, when we say “Piano Lounge” we mean it. The magnificent 1923 Baldwin Model K Grand Piano is scheduled to return. Start taking lessons now, if not sooner.
Finally, a couple snapshots from previous years.
Building our 4,000+ square feet of shade in 2018. (The canvas carport is in addition to that.)

Veteran ePlayans MaryAnimal and UnjonHarley are long-time camp-members. Here in 2018.
Yes, some of us do work in the buff, since it is so marvelously comfortable. Here with happy customer in 2014.

Edward disassembling the crank to replace absolutely-chewed-up-and-crunched-apart crank bearings in a Huffy Crankbroke. Yes, we call them that for a reason. 2017.
