Sorry folks, but foul weather and conditions will CANCEL our Wednesday Night Gravel ride today.

..in other news, we recently dusted off this super cool 1992 Marin Limited Edition road bike to display at the Grinduro! event. It was a literal barn find during a shop buyout we did in Emporium, PA years ago (Roberto's Appalachian Peddler). Remarkably, the neon green parts are still very bright! It now lives in our Ceiling Museum Archive amongst a plethora of interesting bikes.
