Moblogging here on the shuttle bus to Bootleg Canyon, home of the Outdoor Demo. Perusing through the daily show newspaper plotting out a plan for the day. They're expecting 5000 attendees today and tomorrow so I better get the jump on them if I want to try all the really good stuff first.
Apparently Cannondale will only be showing its bikes at the Outdoor Demo and not in the main expo hall. I better get my butt on the new Caffeine 29er and the Carbon Rush.
Maverick's got some new frames it will be debuting. Thought I'd check them out...I've always liked the look of their inverted forks. They also have a new remote operated drop seat...lots going on there.
Diamondback wants to be taken seriously with an all new high end mtb line. The Mission 3 is it's new 30 pound 6" travel all mountain bike.
Pearl Izumi bailed out of its shoe partnership with Crankbrothers. This year Scott will step in with its new to the U.S. line of shoes, sharing booth space and sponsorship with Crankbrothers.
Hutchinson will be launching its new Python 29er cross country tire.
Kona will debut its new Hei Hei Sureme cross country race bike...hope its available for rides.
I'm hoping Ellsworth will have its new full sus 29er on hand.
I'll see what's doin' in the Surly tent. Last year there were a train of Pugsleys riding all over this place.
Well I'm sure I'll get in lots of trouble these next few days. I may post a few random things using the Treo throughout the day but look for the serious posts in the evening or early morning. The quality photos from my digital camera are usually too large to upload on the old cell network. Plus I'll be too busy riding...haha.
