At least when it's done this way, you won't get hording of parts like over at "The Other Big Sale" where greed overtook common sense, and folks flew up from South America to raid all the good stuff.

Good idea Tani.

Thanks Tani and the rest of your crew, the tubes and lube were just what I needed to finish off my spare parts list for the Fat Tire Festival this weekend. Today's discount will allow for another beverage while we are there .

I picked up a 2009 Fox RLC with a QR15, and the Voodoo I picked up from The Path last week. I'm still a little in shock, but I am happy and got a good deal for a great fork, as well as the frame.

good times. That's the longest i've been in their store. just stood there b.s'ing around until the 3 stooges left, then ken and duke kept throwing me curveballs on what frame to get. i meant to get one of their tshirts but somehow forgot

didn't get the 429 or the jet9 because i did some number crunching (i.e. self convincing) and realized the spec. road bike in a greater priority flame away

I am both happy and unhappy that I didn't bring much cash. I got the 65g ritchey bar ends I wanted at a good price. I really wanted to pull the trigger on the King headset at under $100 but I didn't bring the cash. I'll probably regret that tomorrow.

I guess in today's world Cash is king. I really should have not bought the stuff that I did buy but hey the deals were too good and it is what it is. I scored some SRAM X0 Shifters, Hope seat post clamp, Kenda Small block Tire, SRAM PG990 real cassette, and a rear cassette tool all for a little under 300 hunndy.

Thank God my bank only allows to take out 300 a pop, and Tani thanks for the dealios
