My apologies out to all who I didnt tell about this this year but I JUST found out that I could go...literally, today. Switched around some doctors appts...my wife did some checking of fares & hotels and VOILA!
Fourtycal and I have gone in the past but this year my wife wanted to go if we were able - sorry Keith.
Anyone else planning to go? I'll be bringing back LOTS of swag... :nod:

Well, we had a great trip. I don't quite know where to start but we spent most of three days walking the convention and actually got to see nearly everything. One of the first people I ran into was our buddy Dan (leftylover) in the Delta7 Sports booth - ARANTIX bike frame, and of course I had to be reprezentin bogley :haha: . I never did see Fuzzythe Bike Guy...sorry Fuzzy...never got hold of Jeremy (ODGMFG) sorry dude...I know you guys were busier than I was and I didnt think I'd get to see all that I needed to. One of the highlights of my trip was literally running into Tara Llanes in her wheelchair...she insisted on a picture with me...cool! I brought home more crap than I could fit into two big suitcases so it ought to be a good year next :2thumbs:
Here are some of the highlights:

...I just want to go to interbike...don't really care where it is, but I'm sure I am in the minority on this one :haha:

I'm not a big Vegas fan either, but as long as I'm living in St. George I'm happy to hear it will be back nearby next year.

Nice report from the show, looks like a good time, though I'm with you on the Vegas thing. That's cool you got to meet Tara, she's an amazing person. Just curious, what booth was that Knolly Endorphin at? Really a strange build kit on that thing with the White Bros fork, a DT FR wheelset and no idea what rear shock that is.

I'm pretty sure it was at the MRP booth. Lots of component manufacturers had bikes on display that their stuff would go on...you know, to give you a feel of what goes with what.
