I'm getting really bad at keeping up with this whole blogging thing so from now on i promise ATLEAST TWO blogposts a week if i do not uphold this and you readers call me out on it then i will be giving away a random bike part. Could be some hubs i have laying around, could be a bike frame who knows.. i think the risk of giving away my spare parts will influence me enough to do it.. haha. but enough about that.. whats been goin on with us..

Been Busy.. trying to expand our small little company into the vast reaches of Reno and Sparks. Been anjoying working with some new faces and companies. One of our newest and funnest clients is now the little waldorf. We'll be doing some Distribution and promotion with them and who know we might even start doing some food delivery with them for all you UNR folk out there. Some other folk we think you should keep up on just because they are some of our best friends and some are just great clients.

New year, new way....

So its a new year now so i figured i definitely needed to update the blog again and alot has happened since december 23rd so i figured i'd start right back where i left off.

Dec 23rd- So this was where the blog left off just before me and my good friend/co-worker Nick baker headed down to renown, Tent City, and childrens cabinet. Well here is a picture of me in full santa getup toting the bag around the childrens oncology wing. bagogoods
it was such a big experience for both me and Nick just seeing these young kids that were super sick get so stoked on us just bringing them little gifts that we have picked up through the last charity race we did. It was realy great to see it all come full circle though. Oh and here is absolutely the cutest girl that we ran into at renown. She waited to be released from the hospital because she heard that santa was coming that day. painstakinglycutelittlegirl
she was sooo tiny but she was the sweetest most appreciative girl i think i've ever met.

New Year- So now that its a new year we here at j broski delivery are trying to make everything we do and how we operate more professional. For starters we've made new waybills and now i am currently working on making our manifests, contracts, aswell as a bunch of other neccesary document. Also keep and eye out for some of our new sponsors in the works. Oh and here is our new way bill.. we think its pretty swell.
