Back in the good ol’ days when the likes of Greg Lemond ruled the peloton with an iron fist, cyclists(Greg Lemond in particular!) Nordic skied in the off season to stay in shape. The good folks here at Cyclesmith, myself included, like to ski in the off-season for fun(and to get out of the inversion). We get that same sensation whilst gliding on skis as we do whilst rolling on two wheels.

So, in the spirit of all things fun we’d like to extend an invitation for all, to join us for some fun up at Mt. Dell this Monday morning at 8am. Join John and Eric for some skating or join Marek for some classic style.

Subsequently, we won’t be opening up until 11am as opposed to 10am down here at the shop.

The California physician, convicted of assaulting a pair of cyclists with his car, was sentenced to five years in prison at the close of a hearing in Los Angeles Superior Court on Friday morning.

Everyone, please ride safely, obey the traffic rules of the road, share the road - and BE NICE!! 

It can be hard to find extra time to ride when you have a dog. They are a ton of work and require lots of attention and exercise. I love taking my two dogs for quick jaunts(they appreciate it even more) on the Shoreline Trail or throught the U of U campus in an effort to get some more saddle time in.

This isn’t exactly what I had in mind; but they both look happy in their cycling endeavors….

No excuses now!!!!
