My Shop Is Moving...Sale!

Im lame...I know.  Havent posted in a while and when I do its this self serving promotion for my shop, Creekside Bikes, and the sale we're having because we're moving locations.

Dont worry, its only about a 1/10 of a mile move, but the digs are sweet, and much needed.  So, this is from the owner...

"CREEKSIDE BIKES IS MOVING TO A NEW LOCATION!

The shop is moving next to SPROUTS in Parker this June.

We are having a MOVING SALE:

Remaining Specialized apparel, rubber, shoes, one ladies bike, (except air products) 50% OFF!

ALL EDDY MERCKX BIKES in stock:  15% OFF (some have Lifetime Limited Warranty).

Selected Pinarello closeouts:  15% OFF.

Selected bikes and frames from 'The Steel Shop':  Masi, Carrrera, SOMA (15-25% OFF).

Also, Creekside just received new additions to The Steel Shop from Colnago, CIOCC, Tommasini."

The new digs will be up and running by the end of June I believe.  Thats the date we've set for ourselves.  Hopefully sooner.

We're moving more into the boutique realm with our frames, and will be expanding the service and fit areas.  

...boots out.

This Time Next Week...

...Ill have completed my first 3 days at my new shop gig.  (oh yeah, 2 posts in 1 day is a new record for me!)  When I left the new shop I opened at the beginning of last year, I thought "this might be it for me" as far as working in shops goes.  Being happy in the industry had taken on such a dark overtone for me, and the love of the 2wheeled machine thats kept me sane for years had started to fade.

Long story short, and thanks to my local SRAM/ZIPP/Merckx/Pinarello rep for referring my new shop to me(which is unheard of typically...usually we're referred to shops), Ill be back in "the biz" at a place where I truly have a "glass half full" outlook.

Ill be at Creekside Bikes in Parker CO starting Friday Jan 6th.  The owner is a great guy to date, he even sent the family and I an Xmas card before even starting, and Im stoked to be taking over his service department.  Its a small shop, really small, but well utilized space and definitely aims for a certain niche.  That niche being road and some cross(hopefully more cross as I get settled in tee hee).  He doesnt even touch mtb's, and thats ok, because you cant be everything to everyone these days unless youve got major coin, or work for a chain store.

Anywho, check out the links in the post, come find me and say HI! Ill be there 3 days a week, Fri/Sat/Sun, for the first couple of months until "The Season" starts, then fulltime.
