Erin and I just returned from a whirlwind visit to the Interbike trade show in Vegas. Wow! It was fun seeing old friends and new bike gear.
Lea, a Trek/VW teammate, and I were sent to Vegas to provide hospitality and information at the Trek tents at the Dirt Demo. It was a huge success. I love the new EX so much I might have converted some non-Trek dealers to pick up the BALL! Trek also had a product launch that left dealers speechless. The new Remedy 9 was a show stopper for sure. I want one bad! Maybe if I am good, Santa will work it out.
After two days of outside fun, we moved inside for the main part of the show. I spent most of my time working the World Bicycle Relief booth. I think we generated some new interest within the industry, and I think the ball is starting to roll. Check out the link on my front page!
By day four, I finally had a chance to walk the miles of exhibitors that turned the convention center into a human rat maze of glitter and glam.
I literally got lost looking for Erin. There were so many people there that you could get separated like at a rock concert. I was stoked to meet a lot of the people who make it happen; our sponsors of course. Cytomax had one of the best displays of the show. It was great to see Steve Blick with Oakley and my buds Than and Dave with Shimano and Rock Shox!
I am glad to be back home to catch up with what it's all about!
Gone riding right NOW! I will tell you some more stories - and post more photos - later.
