Random Thursdays: NAHBS

Happy Thursday! Yay tomorrow is Friday which means the weekend is in sight for most of you. Do you have any plans to get out on your bicycle this weekend? 


Random Thursdays is under way and for my first installment I would like to share with you some of the pictures the boss ladies took while they were at NAHBS.  NAHBS is the National American Handmade Bicycle Show that was at the Sacramento Convention Center last weekend. 


As I am a little terrified of traveling I sent the boss ladies on a mission to check out all the neat handmade bicycles. They reported back to me with lots of pictures and I'm here to share them with you. 


















Looks like they saw a lot of fantastic things! Can you believe the size of that bicycle above that Christy is standing next to 36" wheel! The wheel it self is almost at tall as her legs... I can't image how I would feel if that thing was rolling towards me in the shop... 

Did you make it out to the NAHBS? Do you have any pictures of cool things you saw? 

Well that is it for my Random Thursday! I hope you all have a meow-tastic Friday and an even more meow-tastic weekend! Until Monday I bid you meows!

Monday Items of the Week 3/5-3/11


I hope everyone had a great weekend. The weather was meow-tific! I was able to lounge around in the sun. I'm working on my tan for summer.


Monday is upon us. As I know most people are not fans of Mondays I like to think that my "Monday Items of the Week" posting are an enjoyable part of your Mondays and something you look forward too. I enjoy pawing away at the keyboard to write this post each week because I get to lure you minions into the store with my special deals. 

Don't want to come into the store. Order these items online. You can check out our website www.blbikeshop.com to see these featured sale items as well as non-sale featured items. It's a secure and easy way to check out what we have in our store on sale and not from the comfort of your home. Please make note that bicycles can not be shipped. 


I do hope you venture into the store though as we have lots to offer you as a customer and you get to see my furry cute little self. : ) Meow!

Random Thursdays


Happy almost end of the week to everyone. It looks like the weather is going to play nice this weekend and bring some warmer, sunnier days back.
Today marks the first post of my new segment “Random Thursdays.” I hope you come to find these posts to be entertaining and informational. 

Fuji Bicycle Company and Bicycle Retailer, the industries magazine, came to town for a visit on Tuesday. They were in town to do a tour of the many bicycle shops we have in Davis. Lucky for us they spent quite a bit of time in our store as we are the FUJI dealers.
They took lots of pictures of me. 

Hopefully, I will end up in the article they write up. I will most definitely showcase the article on here if I do.

Beth & Christy took the whole team on a tour around town on the Davis Bicycle Loop!
Here are a few more pictures from their visit:

So that’s what happened around the shop this week. The staff was in a frenzy last week, making sure the store was in tip-top shape for its guests.
I think I ran from the vacuum more than I normally do.



Don’t forget to check out NAHBS this weekend.  The National American Handmade Bicycle Show being held at the Sacramento Convention Center Friday – Sunday. For more information on the show visit www.handmadebicycleshow.com
