Hey, all,
1 - There is a new bike shop on Newberry Road nr 34th
St. It is located north across the street from the location of the
old Bike Route. If you know where the Gator Barbershop is in the row
of one story businesses...this new shop is the last building on the west
end of that row...right beside the bridge that crosses Hogtown
Creek.
Orlando, previous of the Bike Route and Mr. Goodbike, and
Jake are running it. Orlando says he has plenty of background working on
Trek/Shimano gear trains, brakes, etc...105, Ultegra, etc. They opened 11
Oct so not a lot of inventory yet. Filled with Fuji, Cannondale,
Surly and some other brands. Most new, some used...there are two
sweet Cannondale CAAD racers in there, 56 cm and 54 cm. Plenty of
supplies...Gatorskin tires, tubes, pumps, etc.
The move by the Bike
Route was not good for me...it left me with the choice of driving down to
Gator Cycle or up to the BR or riding into the thick of
UF traffic to get to Chain Reaction. I live within 1.5 miles of this new
shop...unless I see something wrong with their skills, I plan to use this
new shop for repairs, equipment, etc. Can anyone vouch for these guys?

2 - Anyone planning a Saturday 800 am
Sunrise ride from the NW Chevron? I was planning to pass there
~800 am and do the sunrise route backwards cruising at 19-21 mph but with
some intervals at 22-25+ mph. Head out 121 N, turn left 236 W, turn
left 241 S and hitch a ride with the NW wind, turn left MH Road.
Let
me know here if you are and I will be sure to pass by the station at 800 am
and keep an eye out for you. And, I do not mind switching the plan and do the Sunrise
route the other way and do the usual sprints on the hills, etc.
spin
the hills...Bob
