Reveal the Glacial Drumlin


If you haven't seen Mike Dion's first movie, Ride the Divide, than I recommend you check it out, and if you aren't going to see the premier of his second Reveal the path, than you should start thinking about buying your ticket soon!

"Reveal the path explores the word's playgrounds in Europe's snow capped mountains, Scotland's lush valleys, Alaska's rugged coastal beaches and Morocco's high desert landscapes.  Ride along and get lost in the wonders of the world… Meet the locals living modest yet seemingly fulfilling lives, leading us to question what it means to live an inspired life – however humble or extravagant. Filmed across four continents and featuring Tour Divide race legends, Matthew Lee & Kurt Refsnider, this immersive film is sure to ignite the dream in you.
Join in as the creators of Ride the Divide take you on an adventure that will leave you with an eager desire to chart your own course to far away lands or simply to discover with eyes wide open what’s right around the bend." 
Above is a photo taken on the Glacial Drumlin.  One week from today myself and a handful of buds are riding to Madison to see the premier for ourselves via the Glacial Drumlin trail.  It won't be quite like what we'll be seeing on the big screen in Madison, but a trail never the less.  We're going to leave late Friday and make it to camp along the way at our undisclosed site.  Then, continue the journey Saturday morning to the capital!  I'm looking forward to trying out my new Dynamo Supernova E3 Pro front and E3 Tail lights! I'll have a re-cap of the weekend on the blog come next month, and if you're in the area you should check out the Reveal the path.

Have a great memorial day weekend!

Showers Pass Spring Closeout!



Don't miss your chance to save big on a limited selection of outerwear by this fantastic company. Check out the Portland Jacket, a waterproof, soft shell. It's technical design, including pit zips, coupled with street appeal, provides a garment you can wear on, and off the bike. The Hybrid Jacket, also on sale, is made from a stretchy, soft shell fabric that lets you move more freely on the bike. Like the Portland, this jacket features zippered cuffs, reflective details, and a drop down 3M reflective rear panel. For the roadies, we have a couple Softshell Trainers left for sale. Fully windproof and waterproof, pick this jacket if you appreciate rider-specific features, like jersey pockets, large pit zips, and seam tape.

Variety

In a bike shop, one minute you can be sending off someone with a set of Zipp 101 wheels and the next helping someone out with their amazing Rivendell Saluki.  I love it!
