Just got in the new November Issue of Decline and it is FAT! This thing is worth it just for the paper alone. I thought you might forget to purchase the new one and miss out on this collectors edition. Glossy and matte finish with the front and back cover with photos. They also show you how the shot on the cover was accomplished. Just come on down to ghy bikes in Renton. We are you local family downtown bicycle shop with an edge!

Here is my take on Interbike.  There is 100lbs of crap in a 5lb bag.  So there is some quality stuff among the dead wood.  This year Phil, Drew (our computer tech) and I went to assault Vegas.  I found out Phil and I have two passions in common, riding and gambling.  With many hours drinking and pushing buttons and throwin dice it was hard to make the rounds at the show.  If you have not been before it basically takes 3 days of walking to see everything in the place.  Thats a lot of bike stuff.

Here are some of the things that I think are worth taking a look.  First off lets start with the hardtail I am trying to ride this year.  It is an Eastern…from BMX fame.  So the short back end will be easy to manual and perfect for any street/park situation.  HINT:  take a look at the headtube.

Just like the rest of the bike industry ghy is sending a crew of folks down to Las Vegas for Interbike. AJ, Phil, Scott, and myself will be heading down to enjoy all that Vegas has to offer. While there is plenty of work to be done during the day I’m sure we’ll find a way to keep ourselves busy at night.

My goal is to bring you info on the stuff that matters most to you. All you have to do is leave a comment in the posts and I’ll try to take a pic or video. I’ll also keep myself busy by hunting down the craziest stuff I see at Interbike because there is more to the convention than just the latest suspension linkage.

Just an FYI: The shop will be closed on Tuesday like normal, but it will also be closed on Wednesday. Speaking of the shop click below to check out some pics of how it is looking now a days. There is plenty more not pictured but this should give you a good idea of what’s going on.
