Canada's best! - Michael Barry

Congratulations to Canada's own Michael Barry!!! He finished 18th at the World championships held this past weekend!! Not only was he the top canuck he was also the top North American rider. Michael has some strong ties to the shop and this past spring was very generous and donated a signed team Columbia jersey to auction off to help support the Ontario youth cup. His Dad (Michael Barry Sr)also was a huge help donating tons of his time to putting on our very successful HELL OF THE NORTH race.

The Barry's are truly a class act and congrats to Micheal Jr for being Canada's best!!

Cyclo-cross season is here!!

Its time to put away your dream bike for a different model and rip up the grass and mud cyclocross style!! This high paced style will have you red lined and on the verge of death. Your cardio better be up to snuff or you will be spit out the back before the starter yells GO!

There are races every weekend starting.....last weekend!
