    Newsflash! The Path Bike Shop opens a new era. Moving next door to a greatly expanded area and enhanced, “Path experience.”

    As many of you may know by now, the Path Bike Shop is expanding and moving from its current location to the area just next door (same building, just next door). Tani and crew have been busting their tails the past couple of months to bring this move to fruition. Legend has it that Tani stayed until 6:30 am on Saturday morning to get the place open. A number of other Path crew members stayed until various late hours into the night

    I had the pleasure of stopping by for the pre-grand opening on Saturday morning and afternoon.

    Just remember, enter the shop through the open garage door to the left of the previous back entrance!

    There's a mini work area:

    The apparel area has been greatly expanded and the helmet display is impressive!

    Wow .. I stopped into the Path for my first time ever on Thursday. That was only because of all the good things STR folks say. It was a place I felt like I wanted to just hang out in BUT .... It was visually overwhelming and not condusive to just browsing.

    This new spot looks amazing!!!!!!!

    I read the title and thought, "So maybe now I will not have to drive as far." Guess that is not the case ;)

    Congratulations on the new space. :beer:

    Stopped by yesterday and today. Kinda currious how efficient/inefficient it is to have such a large entrance/door for the A/C and electrical bill. Nice place though. Tani, what are you going to do with that back room?
