Keep it Wheel
Dig this, one on the way and I can’t wait to build this dirt jumper up and take it on a test ride. We might need one permanently at the shop for Dirty Demo Days.
Perfect time to work on the dirt jumps since we can’t ride ‘em until the trails dry out. If you see me on the trails with a generator and a hair dryer, pay me no mind.
Kona Shonky!
We are very excited to bring the Velo Orange line to our little shop. Great vintage style at great prices, I can’t wait to see their new randonneuring frame.
On another note, yes they are shipping 3 of these fine specimens to North America! Start drooling …
…Now.
Limited Edition Guv’nor Plus Four now available. Many Pashley enthusiasts will be aware of the the Guv’nor with its classic look in single or 3 speed. The Guv’nor Plus Four features brass plated lugs, a Sachs Duomatic rear hub and Speed Drive front chain wheel (providing the four gears the title alludes to). Brooks leather bar tape and B17 titanium railed honey saddle finish the classic look. A limited run of 50 Plus Fours will be made.
January 9th is right around the corner. Teams from Austin, Tulsa, Shreveport, and elsewhere will be coming so get your team ready.
2pm Norbuck Park Dallas, Tx. Registration, maps, and more info here.
open from 11:30 to 2:30ish,.. yeah come on down, we’ll try to help you build your kids bike.
The Lone Star Randonneurs annual New Year’s day ride is right around the corner, so don’t drink too much. Of course, even if you do, the best cure for a hangover is strenuous exercise. So bring a PowerBar™ and hit the asphalt.
This will be a populaire which means you don’t have to be a member to ride. If you’re curious about randonneuring this will be a great introduction for you. The 200k starts at 7 a.m (I can’t hang with this on New Year’s day). The 102K leaves at 10 a.m. (that’s more like it). The 200K has become quite a tradition and lots of riders will be out early. The site shows a residential address but most people will be leaving from the Kroger on Bowen. See you there.
Come join BFOC and friends for a fun ride on a day that’s forecasted to be beautiful. Sorry to have just now posted this, but we were a little hesitant that some people would be offended or feel left out. Let me assure you that OCBC does not celebrate Christmas. Heck, we don’t even believe Santa is real but we respect all who do. I know that two of my jewish friends are not attending this ride and I would like to thank them for not making a big stink about the flier, and Gut Yontiff!
So Merry KwanzaaHanukkahNavidad to all you cyclists—including you wacky (no offense) Pagans and Vegans for that matter. Maybe I should just say Happy Holidays. Now get on your bikes and RIDE!
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 them a look.
Who doesn’t like cookies? Salted Caramel, Margarita those are my faves.
If you like coffee, when isn’t it a good gift? I’ll take two please.
See what the House of Dang boys and Tara Tonini are up to next here. Get your lady friends some stylish thangs or get yourself a custom-made reversible cycling cap like I did.
It’s a small local book store that loves books, just like you. They even have Dirt Rag and Bicycle Times on hand! Also, just like us, if they don’t have it in they can get it.
Jewelry, hardware, custom… uh anything, check ‘em out.
Do I really need to say anything, hell you’re going anyway.
You’re getting the idea
how about even a little love for local bike shops that have more or less attitude than us, like KGS Liberty or Transit
We have added the Torker line to OCBC, these are great commuters at a nice pricepoint. The first one we brought in sold quick, but we have some more on the way. Maybe your sweet heart would prefer a SWOBO or Pashley, but if they have been extra nice, we just got a beautiful new YBS Hardtail in that I cant take my eyes off of. All I want for Christmas is my hydraulic brakes, my hydraulic brakes!
Even though we don’t own dogs, we love puppies here at OCBC. In fact we have cats so hold the emails. I really do still love a puppy. The way I open a bag of Fritos™ and the smell reminds me of their cute little paws, or petting ‘em and smelling that oh so familiar breath that takes me back to when I was a pup. Heck puppies are even cute when they’re pooping. Ahh puppies, about the only thing I might like more is guppies.
