Ride your way back to school in style

Yes, the “S” word is on everyone’s lips this time of year: SCHOOL! At Local Ride Bike Shop we have the perfect way to make going to school fun — cruise there and back on a shiny new bike! We’re currently blowing out all our 2005 bikes with rock-bottom prices and most of our 2006 models are on sale too!

Specials
In-stock Minoura indoor trainers are on sale and there are only two left! The sturdy, reliable, tire drive, magnetic trainers with remote resistance control are regularly priced at $238.00. Pick one up at Local Ride Bike Shop for only $159.95! They’re a great way to fit in a quick, quality workout into your hectic schedule.

Featured Product
This week, we’re featuring Specialized Body Geometry Bar Phat. This handlebar tape for road, touring and cyclocross bike isolates road vibration, increasing comfort and decreasing fatigue. In other words, it will allow you to ride longer.

Sunday Rides
Our famous Sunday rides are getting bigger and better with two groups to suit your cycling style. An established B Group covers around 60km of quiet Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows roads in up to three hours, while the A Group aims to power out up to 100km in the same amount of time with a few more challenging climbs thrown into the mix. We’d love to have you join us, so come for coffee before we head off:

Where: Starbuck’s at Valley Fair Mall, Lougheed Hwy., Maple Ridge
When: Sundays @ 8:30 a.m. for coffee; ETD @ 9:00 a.m.

Have a great week!
