    As one person asked, there will be no charge to come. Will more than likely have some organized rides and/or clinics.

    Bikes, Beers in Big Bear. I can't believe it hasn't been done before. Sounds like a good time. :bang: Looking forward to hearing more details. Hope I can make it.

    Since it's sponsored by New Belgium, maybe make it part of their Tour de Fat schedule? Link to 2009 flyer: http://www.newbelgium.com/tour-de-fat

    or,

    Big Bear Fat (Phat) Tire Festival

    Is the event going to be at a park or at Snow Summit?

    Having a band would be cool. Then it could be the Big Bear Rockin' ...

    Just thinking out loud.

    Where it is depends on the date I choose. I also have a meeting with a property owner today to talk about renting there.

    This sounds like a great idea, Amy. I'll be watching to see what the eventual program is, and plan to attend.

    Nice work Amy! I have access to a cabin up there - hopefully it will all come together. Love the New Belgium sponsor - great beers from my homeland (CO).

    Ok so unfortunately the desired property is a no go. The property owner did not like the idea of alcohol on the premises. We are still trying other options. There are plenty other properties up here that would work. If anybody has any ideas please feel free to say so.

    Big Bears Bikes & Beers is in search of the right music for our event. Wether you are an individual artist, band or DJ we are interested. No specific genre. Please feel free to send demos to P.O. Box 7276, Big Bear Lake, CA 92315.

    If we can get a singer in time my 90's cover band can probably play it. We don't have demos being a cover band
