Austinbikes turns 4!

Come celebrate with us Saturday,
Feb. 13 at 7 pm


Thanks to all our friends who call Austinbikes
their local bike shop...4 years and counting.

EXPO, EXPO! Read all about it

On March 6th starting at 9:30, Our Favorite Gym on the Planet and Team Austinbikes sponsor: Pure Austin Gym will be entertaining members, special guests, and (in this case) interested Austinbikes customers with a very enlightening and super fun Fitness Expo based out of the Gym's North Austin location at Quarry Lake, located at 4210 W. Braker Ln. This gym is the answer for people who dread "indoor gyms" but love being fit. Attending this Expo will do a lot to explain just exactly what this means. I know that Austinbikes, for instance, is offering up free bike fit checkups and quick tuneups to those interested in bringing their bikes and/or cycling apparel to the Expo with them. Who knows what else you may learn or find at the 2010 Pure Austin Expo!!!!

Movin on up

Kevin Schaefer helped us track down a new Team Van-for taking almost everyone to the races in one Veehickel. What do you think?

Rain Rain Go Away. We have a class to teach!

As much as it pains me to say: The rain rain will not go away. Since we were planning to be doing some perhaps inherently dangerous maneuvering tomorrow anyway, we are going to have to postpone the cornering and bump drills for another day. I will continue to update this blog to inform interested participants on the happenings of this clinic.

Orbeas are pretty

Top Of The Line.
You can have them in any color as long as it's Red, White, and Black!

SUMO!!!!!

SUMO IS ON!

Sumo train will be leaving the Austinbikes Service Station at 9:00 a.m. sharp

it will probably be comfortably below the freezing mark, but you know: why not.

If you think 3 hours is not quite long enough to be freezing cold, you are always free to join the longer 100 mile Johnson City Ride leaving at 8:00 a.m. from AB. Don't forget to bring your Tosti Toes.

This Week's Ladies Cycling Clinic Postponed

due to the chilly arctic blast in the Austin area we are going to go ahead and skip the ladies riding clinic this week, as the lesson plan is riding in traffic and routes. Unlike last week's session this lesson requires actually mounting a bicycle and pedaling. Please contact Sol at sales@austinbikes.com if you would like to meet at the shop at 8:00 a.m. on saturday anyhoo to discuss the weather or world events. We'll provide the coffee/bagels. Otherwise Sol will stay nestled beneath his down duvet. Yes, he has a duvet.
