This week marks one year since I left my IT position as Application Developer II at Quality Bicycle Products (aka last time alarm clock was used). I had no idea where I’d be at this point, however as scary as it was, I can honestly say that starting a new adventure after 5 years at [...]

Dustin Griess has resigned from his position as Application Developer II with Quality Bicycle Products. Words will never explain what QBP has done for me over the past 5-6 years, professionally and personally. I look forward to continuing our positive relationship. My 5 month leave from QBP is about to end, so I took my [...]

So last Friday during the ASA event in Chicago someone called QBP claiming to be me… I was “in LA for a photoshoot, the airlines lost my bag, money, cell phone, and my grandmother died” so they wanted QBP to wire cash to some random name in LA through Western Union. SOMEHOW they got QBP [...]

After a long story, I substituted my standard QBP chair for a lazy boy… Talk about productivity! I’ve been able to sleep more than ever!

I believe this started as a prank in Adam’s cube when he was out of the office, which then moved into Damians cube when he was out of the office, which then moved into my cube when I was in the office. lol

Yes I buy my riding shoes at Target for $19.99. But when there is a sale and I can get good shoes “beloe” that price, you may or may not see a large order come through from Dustin Griess ;) I love my bright white trainers.

We recently started on a large new project at QBP, so large we don’t even know what it is. Or what to call it. Every morning outside of the IT windows, we see our owner Steve walking to work, slowly, strolling, through the woods. I whisper to the other developers, “Sasquatch”… This may or may [...]

QBPBMX on Props Mega Tour 8! Downtown NYC. Seriously the most fun of the whole trip… Weaving through traffic, blowing stop lights & stop signs with other local commuters, right in front of dozens of NYPD. It appeared as if they couldn’t care any less.
