Rad Events This Week

Hey kids! If you've got some free time for riding and watching movies this week, check out these events:

This Thursday, come to the Boulder Mountainbike Alliance Film Nite. You'll get to see a couple of short films plus the feature premier of "Red Bull Rampage: The Evolution." (Dude!!) But possibly best of all, you'll get to see Blue Sky's own Rob Love star in a short film made by yours truly. Beer is served and the ticket proceeds benefit kids' mtb group SMBA.


Second, and even more fun, is the Mavic Wheel Demo Ride on Saturday. Demo a pimp set of Mavic wheels, get free coffee and BBQ, and put the hammer down on your friends. Please come ride with the group, even if you don't want to demo wheels. Consider it Saturday's group ride.

Mavic Wheel Demo Ride

when: Saturday May 2nd, 2009 10am (arrive by 9:30 to begin fitting wheels)

where: Blue Sky Cycles, 600 S. Airport, Longmont (located at airport and nelson) www.blueskycyclesonline.com

what: Demo new the new Mavic Cosmic Carbone SLR and R-Sys wheels on your favorite roads in Boulder County. The ride will start and finish at Blue Sky Cycles, making a stop mid-way at The Stone Cup in Lyons where drinks will be provided. Expect the ride to be about 2.5 hours, with some spirited efforts and regrouping happening. This is a social ride, not a race. Afterward, a full-on BBQ will be provided by Two Dog Diner, with carnivorous and vegetarian options. Oscar Blues will provide the beer, and Mavic representatives will be on hand for technical Q+A. Additionally, wheels will be available for individual test rides after the group ride.

how: RSVP to reserve your set of wheels to bizalich@gmail.com. The ride rolls at 10 am, so plan on showing up by 9:30 to get your wheels fitted. first come, first served. We will be swapping wheels out at The Stone Cup, eg. if you have a demo set of wheels for the first half of the ride, you will be on your own wheels for the second half, and vice versa.
