Bicycle Swappy Swap

We know there is a HUGE CORPORATE BICYCLE SWAP later on this year. They make you PAY TO SELL, to PAY TO BUY and on top of that you know LESS THAN 1% OF THE PEOPLE THERE. And, we don't love it. We don't even like it. In fact, we DISLIKE it strongly.

Our answer is to have our own community bicycle swap. A Denver Bicycle Swap.

And you better be here for this one!

When? July 4th from 10 until 2.
Where? Behind Salvagetti Bicycle Workshop 1234 Speer Blvd. Denver, CO 80204
Who? You, your friends, your neighbors
How? It is free, but you may pay us if you want by buying stuff at our store. But, that isn't why we are doing this. (see next part)
Why? Because we like you and you need this.

Bring your bicycle stuff to sell or some cash to buy bicycle stuff and come on out.

The shop will be open (with limited staff) and we will also be bringing our own goods as well.

Any questions? Come on by and ask. This is supposed to be fun, so let's make it that way!

The truffle shuffle

"The Goonies" was the movie of choice for our bike in movie last weekend. We played an insanely quick game of "modified get the bacon" or "get the envelope out of the circle without being touched". It was fun. We would like to thank the large gaggle of fine folks who joined us for the evening.

The next movie night will be announced soon. And this time, we are going to get the time right so that people don't have to sit around waiting for the sun to go down.

Jazz in the park rides start this Sunday. Hope to see you soon.

Learning something new

Some of our crew has started a new venture. We have been dirt jumping. And some of those jumps have been videotaped. And those movies are on YouTube.com. Here are two of them:

Scott riding his Brooklyn Park Bike on some sissy jumps that are kind of intimidating. Kind of...



And Tom taking a piece of jump home with him.



We'll post more as we have more. Come ride with us soon.
