Calvin and the other guy remembered me! Even the receptionist recognised me and my boss and asked if we came yesterday, because she's sure she saw us, but she must have remembered us from last year.

I suppose being a double minority in the bike industry has its perks!

So today I found out what Calvin's first name is. Truman told me. I don't know if it's meant to be a secret, so I'm keeping it to myself. He looks more like a Calvin than his first name.

I also found out that #CalvinJones does not like baseball and finds it boring. I said, Calvin don't break my heart!

I gave him his doughnut charm and he gave me a gift back too! He asked if I'm still carrying on with my notebook, he remembered! I said sadly, no, my training is on pause. And then he brought out his last ParkTool notebook and gave it to me. The #ParkTool guys are so nice!

Here's what I got. The lanyard you get at reception. Calvin's autograph is in black, #TrumanPurdy's in gold. That was when he told me what the C stands for. The bottle opener with a 10mm spanner was Truman's gift to me. The mug was given to me at reception. I also got a Madison gear hanger chart!

Here we go!

The first sighting! Truman was there this time! He liked my doughnut and gave me a gift in return! They're so nice!

Here's my tribute to #CalvinJones. I made some #ParkTool themed things. The doughnuts are a reference to the first more vloggy style video of his that I saw. I wonder if he will understand the reference. I'm hoping he can pass one doughnut onto Truman for me.

He'll definitely be missed. I've learned lots from him.
