Calling All Cyclists

[ltr450rider]

I know there are a few bicycle riders on here, I'm just spreading the word.

I work as a Mechanic/Sales here in Santa Barbara at Bicycle Bobs and we have a really cool event coming up.

If you are interested in test riding some high end mountain and road bikes, the Trek Demo fleet will be holding a Demo day at Elings Park here in S.B. This is a really cool thing if you like to ride or even just thinking about buying your first bike. You can litereally ride a $5000 Session D.H. bike or Top Fuel XC carbon race bike.

The park is a perfect place for this event. It is about 1/4 mile from the beach with killer views of the S.B. Channel islands and has multiple trails and groomed courses. There is a XC loop with plenty of climbing and technical switchbacks, there is a groomed downhill course (which is awsome) and dual slalom course. Plus plenty of road riding. There are going to be 2 different Carbon fiber road bikes to test out along the waterfront. Bring any of your gear (shoes, pedals, helmet, etc. if you have them, but not necessary).

I will be out there testing every bike I can since I am selling them everyday at the shop, need to get some first hand experience to be able to answer any questions.

Even if you are just looking for something to do to get out of the house, come on up and enjoy the day, have some fun riding some really nice bikes, then cruise down to State St. and have some food and beers. This is all FREE, no need to make a reservation, just bring yourself and be ready to have a blast.

The date is Sunday March 13th 10am-3pm.

Here is a link to the Trek bikes website. I will get a list of all the bikes available to demo in the next day or 2.
