We just became the first and exclusive Foundry dealers in the area! These babies are fantastically fast carbon machines, all with tapered headtubes and press fit bottom brackets. They have Mountain 29er, CycloCross, and Road rigs ya digs! I personally like subdued graphics that make people focus more on the beautiful lines of the frame. Got a shipment coming in a few weeks and cant wait to show ‘em off!
Could we ask for a better start of the year! We’re gonna bring our stuff out every Sunday until mother nature says “no more”. Feel free to bring some food and drink as well, we have two pits, night lights, and a few extra bikes to play with.
DO NOT RIDE LIKE ME OR CLOSE TO ME!

Our Salsa rep. is letting us demo this bike for a couple weeks so come throw a leg over some squishy 9er wheels. Spearfish 3 Large.
We not only consider Ray Porter a winner for winning last weekend’s race at Sansom, and the Rocky Hill 24 hr race a few weeks before that, and hell the majority of races that last longer than a NASCAR event. We really think Ray is a winner because he has probably delivered more bikes than anyone to the Spokes for Folks drive. In fact, we hear the number is upwards of 100 bikes to the charity. Here he is picking up a few bikes that we donated – but let’s be honest, we aren’t all nice like Ray. I just want to get off the naughty list so Santa remembers to bring me this…
Hanpresso, bike pump espresso maker. Hint Hint….
In all seriousness, if you have a bike to donate feel free to drop it off at the shop and we will be making a delivery to Hans Johnson Co. 8901 Chancelor Row, Dallas TX this Thursday and there will be room for your bike too. More importantly, they need help to work on these bikes so if you’ve got time to donate contact them here.
Thank you Pam Jackson, all the rest of you dirty DORBA members, the rest of our local bike shops, AND YOU.!.for contributing.
Look at this guy, we love you Ray!
We did a metric century with the Lonestar Randonneur group 3 years ago and had a good time. It was great starting the year off with friends and a good ride rather than laying in bed hungover, drinking kombucha and eating Fritos.
That ride inspired us to make our own tradition of doing a century ride from the shop. Please join us at 9:30 A.M. and we’ll have a hot cup of coffee and snacks for you. There will be a mix of fast and slow riders so you can go at a pace that suits your riding style. This is the last year we’ll be on earth so if you haven’t done a 100 mile ride yet, IT COULD BE YOUR LAST CHANCE!
There is an option in the ride that allows for a metric century (maybe a hair under) for anyone that may not have a hundred miles in them but still have a hangover to cure. I personally will be taking the shorther route. Also, if a little hair of the dog is your remedy then you can rest assured that I will be holding a flask! See ya there.
We’ll provide the food but feel free to bring whatever you like. Here’s how it’s going down, we got a lot of beer we need to get get rid of one way or another. I heard it might rain so if it happens to be coming down then we’ll just cook at the shop and spill drinks all over the gloves and knee warmers. We can sing carols too. Keep your fingers crossed that we can ride dirt though, cuz I haven’t seen a dirt trail in a couple months. We will let you know if we relocate to the shop so stay tuned and happy holidays!
Yeah, we’ll be opened on Francis Black Friday. While you’re out, these are some places we like to go to. I know I’m leaving a ton of places out. You know what’s around you, and if you don’t maybe you should give look around.
Wackyms Kitchen Who doesn’t like cookies? Salted Caramel, Margarita those are my faves. Pretty please Santa.
Oak Cliff Coffee Roasters Duh, coffee. I can tell you right now they fit in my stocking. (Hint hint)
F is for Frank Jewelry, hardware, custom… uh anything, check ‘em out.
Dolly Python Since Jean Paul Gaultier shops there, I think you can find some wonderfulness too.
we are 1976 If you haven’t been, it’ll be your favorite new store.
Re-Geared Amazing artistic gifts made out of bicycle parts donated by us and some of your other favorite bicycle shops.
Oil and Cotton These lovely ladies can teach you how to make anything your imagination can dream of. I made a unitard for the shop cat.
Salvage House Boutique Beautiful vintage inspired dresses, and vintage furniture. You can also let this beautiful young lady restore, redesign or taylor your favorite threads. She put some awesome and stylish reflective details on a friends jacket so he is safer but doesn’t look like a road worker.
If we don’t have what you’re looking for try some of our friends KGS Trinity Transit or Switching Gears.
Yeah it’s short notice, but come down, win the hell outta some thangs and have fun doing it! Union Station Park.
Even Jesus rode a bike…
… a cross bike. No, Spooky Cross is not his haunted cross coming back to get us before 2012! Let me remind you that it’s still 2011.
First race is 10:00 A.M. Last race should be done by 1:30 P.M.
There will be prizes for the racer with the best costume in addition to podium finishes. Oh and since it’s outdoors, bring your pet too!
Location: Rosemont Elementary Lower Campus; 1919 Stephens Forest Dr. Dallas 75208.
Registration: Online at www.bikereg.com or day of race.
Every now and then we get screwed with a flat tire. Don’t let that end your ride! As they say, knowledge is freedom so let’s learn how to fix it. In honor of Cyclesomatic we will have classes every Wednesday at 7:30 P.M. for the month of October. We can cover tube/tire changing, basic maintenance the participants can vote on what they want to learn. No Charge.
Get on your bikes and ride on down to White Rock Lake to check out the Texas State VEGGIE Fair October 23rd 11-6.
Of course we want to push our agendas on you but let’s face it, vegetables are good for you! Especially since you’ve been plowing that other state fair food down your mouth-hole all month. If you just can’t get enough, there will be a fried food contest along with the non artery clogging food. As we all know, you could deep fry a shoe for the most part and it’ll still be delicious so let’s assume these hippies cant foul this up. If WRL is too far for you, maybe you could make it to their screening of Vegucated at the Texas Theater October 22 1 P.M.
We donated a really nifty prize so try your luck at the raffle! Who doesn’t like camping!?!
The Outdoor Research Highland Bivy. Small enough to fit on your bike.
