Pinkbike Has Landed In Las Vegas! Interbike 2009

Posted: Sep 20, 2009

It seems like only last month that we were here for last year's gong show, nonetheless Interbike 2009 is already upon us. Get ready to be inundated with a load of info on everything new and exciting for the '10 season! Expect more killer HD videos of new bikes and bits and tons of pics!

Roll on Interbike 2009...

After a lazy morning flight out of Vancouver, Canada, we arrived in 'Vegas this afternoon to be greeted with a toasty 98 degree welcome. It certainly is nice to have a bit of an extension added on to our fading Canadian summer, even though I'm sure at least some of us will be over it by noon tomorrow at day 1 of the Outdoor Demo. It's amazing how fast a bunch of white pasty Canadians wilt under the desert sun. Regardless of the sunstroke, tomorrow's coverage should be amazing so be sure to check back and see the goods!

Specialized rarely goes to Interbike. Same with Trek, since they each have their own dealer-only events each year.

You can only go to Interbike if you work at a shop, distributor, or bike company. It's the same for everyone in the whole world.

Got back two weeks ago, yes tacky but also Mint at the same time.....the place blew me away! wished I could have taken the bike to the Grand Canyon (not literally in the canyon Smile ) the terrain out there was awesome!

I went a couple years back. Funny how the strip looks all lively and sh*t when you first arrive, but after a few days that same sight becomes demoralizing and leaving you longing for home!

Good luck at Outdoor Demo - hopefully they have misting tents so you don't evaporate!!!
