Default Bionicon Demo with All Pro

Hello all you fun loving mountain bikers! We are hosting a demo ride with All Pro in Simi Valley next Saturday. Come out to test ride a bike or just join us on your own bike for a good day of riding.

See you there,

Mic

Title:
All Pro Bikes Demo Event
Location: Corganville Park Simi Valley, California
We'll have a demo van full of bikes at Corganville Park in Simi Valley.
When: 2008-07-26, 8:00 - 03:30 p.m. We'll be out with the great folks at All Pro Bicycles on Tapo Street in Simi Valley. Come check out the latest in mountain bikes that can do it all! We'll be there from 8:00 a.m. until 3:30 p.m., and you'll be able to take out the bikes on the trails you know and love, to give them a real head-to-head comparison with what you're riding now. Please bring your pedals and helmet.
Directions to Corganville Park:

Exit 118 Freeway at Kuehner off ramp.

If on 118E (i.e - having passed through most of Simi Valley) turn
right at end of off ramp. If on 118W and you've just come down the
hill into Simi turn left at the end of the off ramp.

Drive about a quarter mile south on Kuehner to a 3 way Stop. Go
straight across and through the next 2 lights before starting
slightly uphill to third light. (Another quarter mile or so)

Turn left onto Smith Road and follow it a quarter mile to the parking
lot in Corganville Regional Park.

Which bikes are you bringing?
Saying it can do it all and having the demo at Corriganville, well, that's just tooo tempting and asking for a broken frame


I just may have to come check out what all the hubbub is about with your rides.

I plan to be there. The folks at All Pro Bicycles are great. They helped us out with a charity fundraiser back in the days when they were in the San Fernando Valley (20-something years ago). I bought my last bike from them (before my bionicon edison), even though Simi was/is a long way from where I am. And hummingbird? Say no more....!

I look forward to meeting you guys tomorrow at the trail head. This is my first time there so I don't know what to expect for trails and the terrain. It sounds like there are some shuttle options and some more technical terrain.

If all goes well, I will get a lap in too!

Good to meet you guys there today. It was a great turnout, and as usual, the overall feedback was excellent on the bikes. There's at least two people raiding savings accounts and/or pleading with SO's tonight, and at least one person there will have a very happy christmas that may come early!

I'm sorry I didn't get to do a lap and spend more time with Denmother, just_me and crew.... next time.

It was great to meet everyone that came out to ride. We will be planing more demo rides through the summer and into the fall. Keep an eye out for our weekend gathering in a few months. Camping and riding; what more could you ask for?

Thanks Kanga and Posthole, it was great meeting you. I loved the Golden Willow and look forward to trying out the Edison. I am simply amazed at how well the suspension works and the adjustability.
