Thumbs up The Path Parking Lot Sale

What a GREAT day it was!
It was fun being the "greeter" at the entrance for the guy's, and getting to see how many friends I've made over the years from MTBing! Aldo, it was great seeing you again! You guy's need to come out on a Sunday ride with us! With so many girls on this site, it would be great if we could get a ride together, so Lacey's not just riding with a bunch of crazy old men!
I was there from 7am, to around 6:30pm, with Lacey comming down with coffee at 9, and staying the rest of the day also. Duty, and Pappi were also there for the whole day, helping out.
It's not very offten that you can go to a bike shop's parking lot sale and see the TOP FREERIDERS in the world, doing their thing in the alley behind the shop!

and some pretty sick BMX'ers

SICK!!

Maxwell, saw you from afar working the crowd as I drove by on way to wahoos for lunch with wife/son with intention of checking it out but little guy fell asleep in car and was instucted not to wake him .

Wanted to pick up some new pedals and other misc but at least got to check out from truck the vert ramp and the guys throwing down some sweet sh!te.

Sounds like another great event from the Path...hope to hit it next time

what time did the guys start riding at? i was there with rob and pat from about 9:15-9:45. i picked up a Panny Rampage and a Kenda Nevegal for my 29er, and ironically, each tire was $29.

The guys showed up around noon'ish and jumped, and then just hung around until it ended.
Nice buch of kids!
I told them afterwards that they must have added a few 100 more grey hairs to the top of my head!

Hey man, I wish you could of stopped in, but I know the wife and kid's gotta come first.
Wait until the day comes when the "little guy" is going, "come on Dad, wake up, I wanna go RIDE"!

I want to give props to the Path guys for having a great event. I was able to get out of there only buying a sram cassette and a 29er tire which was good on the wallet. My buddy bought his gf a Kona Lisa DS less than a grand and we took her out for her maiden voyage at moro. She hadn't ridden a bike since she was a kid and she was grinning from ear to ear the whole ride. So hopefully with a few more rides she'll be good and hooked.
