Update...

Working on Jason's BMC TM01 custom on a recent snowy spring day in April.

Some quick updates:  Just posted the official results of the Tuesday Night Time Trial Series.  We had 13 people for the flat course and there were some new faces mixed in with the regulars.  Looking forward to a fun year with that as usual.  Added some new customer photos.  Took off some bikes in the specials area which have been sold.  (Need to add some more but where to find the time?!).

New products in the shop...Giro Air Attacks with visor have just arrived.  Also, for you TT/Tri people we have the new Grio Selectors in various sizes and color options.  We are carrying Profile Design wet suites this year and have a couple in stock.  Continuing with the Triathlon scene...we've got plenty of little extras to help you in the water, on the bike or during the run.    I am also well stocked in Garmin cycling computers.  We've got 500's, 510's, 800's and the newest 810, not to mention some 910XT's for the multi sport athletes.  Garmin is running some rebates if you purchase these products from now until the end of May.

Local Event:  Winona MN has an Open Streets event that is taking place from 10am-12pm on May 11th at Veterans Memorial Park. The event will transform the road around the park by giving that space to community members to celebrate, walk, run, bike, rollerblade, dance and play. Some of the activities include a bike rodeo, dance fitness, bounce castle, Ga Ga Pit, Healthy Kids Club activities, and games. The event is free and open to all ages.

More to come in the following days...Until then, tailwinds and sunny skies!  Peace,  Mark & Gary Brone
