Well, as Thanksgiving gobbles its way towards us, our BIG FAT CLEARANCE SALE is making a big dent in our collection of svelte '07 bikes; check our website for current stock.

But you're going to have to wait because we are closed Tuesday as usual, Wednesday because we feel like it, and Thursday because we're eating. See ya Friday.

In other news, we're unveiling our first session of Tip Top Bike Shop classes, FREE and open to the two-wheeled public. Here's what you have to look forward to at our inaugural "Get Home(AKA the basics) " class on Thursday, December 13th, from 6:00-6:45 p.m.:

"It’s a dark and stormy night. You and your trusty bike are soldiering on through knee deep puddles and doing your best to avoid swerving cars when BOOM. It’s not a lightning strike or a thunderclap. Your front wheel has come to an abrupt stop in a pothole, and your tube has come to an abrupt end. What do you do to get home???!!"
Whether it’s a flat tire or a dropped chain, let us help prepare you to help yourself. Bring your bike and after an hour or so you’ll be the envy of all your friends and know how to:
  • Lock your bike up properly so you can ride it home at the end of the day.
  • Fix a flat and all the sundry bits and pieces that entails.
  • Put your chain back on.

We’ll be happy to work with up to 8 folks and accompanying bikes on a first come first served basis.

Stuff
We just got in a super cool new bike: the Felt Virtue 2. It's a full suspension mountain bike with a unique linkage system that minimizes pedaling bob. It really works! The bike is super well equipped with Full XT, Mavic wheels, quality Fox and RockShox suspension, and at 27.25lbs for 5" of travel it's killer. OK, it's an '07 but we can sell it at a great price and we have it now.

We should also have Felt Cafes very soon too. If you are looking for a comfortable, great looking and smooth performing bicycle: this is it.

Derek made some cool top tube protectors and and we'll have them until they're gone... support the new daddy.

Moving towards the end of the year we'll be breaking out the '08s from Dahon, Felt, and Specialized but before that we need to clear those '07s (plug plug plug). here comes the last weekend of clearance deals, if you've been eye-ing a bike all year now is the time to strike.

Ride On
