Maybe we can write into one of the home make over shows on HGTV and they can work their magic? They do amazing things with small spaces. I'm only half way kidding of course.

Seen a group of I think 4 riders today on road bikes heading up towards Mt Baldy. They were all wearing The Path jerseys. A few guys in my road club mention the cool argyle jerseys and I told them about The Path. I did give a shout out to them as I was riding by, but I was on a downhill section and I was leading the peloton so I couldn't see who was riding or if I recognized any of them.

Good call!
There were 3 of us.

We tried GMR but it was closed so we pedaled over to that Mountain Ave.

The cool argyles get comments almost everywhere.

Thanks to Tani and (mechanic Dave?) for SAVING me some money! Thought I needed to make a costly repair- walked out the door paying $7! On second thought.... I did leave with a bag full of stuff!

Why would you lounge when you've got Whistler Mountain to ride on? C'mon, ALine, gimme that trail anyday. Now if we're in Tustin hangin' at the Path, that's a different story.

We do want you to hang out even if it gets crowded.

How wrong/great would it be if we could put in a bar?

There are dreams of flat screens w/ videos going, and a lounge area.

Obviously we are currently working with brutal spacial limitations.

Thanks guys for the daydream session.
Hey "T", maybe we should start talking about our "Bikes & Brews" idea again..........

We talked a few years back about me adding a shop to THE shop, that served up coffee and pastries in the am before rides, and BREWS of the other sort and burritos from lunch time on.
OK, time for me to wake up now!

Before Tani does any remodeling to the shop, I think he should first open a second Path up here so we have a decent LBS!

Big thanks to Tani today for hooking it up STR style for me. I went in looking for OLD style Shimano XT brake pads and went home with Avid Juicy 7's LOL he made me such a convincing deal that I couldn't say no.

Thanks again Tani!

I must have missed you... I was there most of the afternoon, after Southridge. Congrats on the new brakes, I am trying to figure out what breaks to put on the DH bike.

The new XTs are sweet. I've got a set on my 6point and CB has some on her Demo. I've had lots of experience with Saints and older XTs (which I really like) and I think the new XTs are a step up.
