This is going to be one sick party.  Heres the deal.  We have partnered with the skatebarn in order to let you have a super session for bikes.  Normally bikes are not allowed on Fridays but we talked them into letting you ride from 3 P.M. all the way to 9 P.M. for only $10.  Then if you want to stick around we will have the premier of two killer videos (New World Disorder 9 and Summer of Shred).  If you just want to watch the vids then come any time after 7 P.M. and the show will start around 9 O’clock.  Price at the door will be $10 for the show of a lifetime.  We have some Pro’s that are coming into town to ride with all of you.  So come watch the Pro’s then some videos.

We are going to have a huge raffle with the grand prize coming from Haro.  It is going to be a Haro Thread 1.

Much more details of who is coming and the other sponsors as soon as we have verification.

Since we finally have some good weather in old Washington state we are going to start up our Friday night cruiser rides.  June 27th will be the first of many Renton cruises.  Bring out any kind of bike and check Rentons sites.  We meet at the shop at 6:30-7:00 and then we usually get out about 7:30.  From there anything can happen.  Usually it is down to the lake and back with some bar hopin involved.  Bring yourself and a bike.  We will see you then.

Also since the weather is on our side this weekend a few of us will be floating the Cedar.  I am thinking around 1pm will be a good time to meet at the shop.  We will depart from there and float for a while down the rapids of the cedar.
