Big Sale
Well, if you haven't already read about it or heard about it, we are in the middle of our 11th Anniversary Sale. 11 whole years. 2 years in my garage, 3 years in the small shop, and now 6 years in our current digs. It has been a long time, and I like to think we keep on getting better. I really do love what I do, and I am pretty happy that I can honestly say that we have the best staff we have ever had. I feel really lucky.
We also have great customers, which are a huge part of why I like my job so much. Without our customers, we wouldn't be in business. Period. So if you are reading this, thank you. Thanks for coming in and giving us a chance to serve you. Thanks for checking out and reading through our website. Thanks for trusting us with your bikes and skis. If you are local, please come in and visit us during our sale. We are blowing a bunch of stuff out (good stuff, but for some reason we haven't been able to sell it), including all sorts of ski stuff, even though the ski season isn't even half over (since we started around Dec. 15 and will ski through April 15th or later....).
Come in this week and join us for a beer compliments of our friends over at Cascade Lakes Brewing Company
On a more personal note, MeanT and Bert and I went up for a great ski this morning. We (by we I am referring to nordic skiers in Bend) have it really good here. Some people bitch and moan about the grooming at Mt Bachelor, but it really is quite good. For those who bitch, they need to get out of town a little more often and see how most places groom. Sure, there are a few exceptions that might have better grooming, but not many. We pay $230 or so for a ski pass, and we get really good grooming on a whole lot of trails every day. Not every other day, or 3 days a week, but every day. I like to go early, and I ski on fresh corduroy all the time. Here's a hint - the earlier you go, the better it is (usually). If you go skiing at 4 o'clock every day, after hundreds of peoplee have skied, yes, the trails will be chopped up a bit. Go figure. But that's not Mt B's fault. They work their butts off to make sure that no matter how much or how little snow there is, we have good skiing, everyday.
Gotta run.
