Latest News: - 15 May 2008 - L!B 8x12 Series Event Status for 28 May: TBA Wow! We did it! For the first time ever, we managed to host the opening event of the L!B 8x12 Off-Road Series! Of course, it still rained, but only midway into the race. By that point the novices had already finished the short course. So, only the folks on the long course had to deal with the slick conditions on the trails. None-the-less, it turned out to be a success. Results for L!B 8x12 No.1 have been posted. If you notice any errors, please email us and let us know. We will make changes as soon as possible. Pictures are posted in the Gallery. Thanks to the volunteers who supported the event, and to the Staff at Liberty! Bicycles for their assistance. On a final note, our Trail Supervisor, Marv, is asking everyone to stay off the "new" section of trail, on the back end of the course, until it firms-up. Be sure to tell your friends. We will probably not use that section for the next two (or three) L!B 8x12 events so that it can dry out and can be repaired. Thanks to all for participating! A few things: First, L!B 8x12 event status will be posted right here (above) no later than 3:00pm on race-night. Second, we still need some volunteers to help with the events. The more, the merrier. We need people to help around the finish-line, and some spotters out on the course. Think you can help? Call Kurt at L!B (905-682-1454) or just show up at the start, say hello, and lend a hand. Finally, on non-race Wednesdays, we offer Off-Road Group-Rides which leave from L!B at 6:15pm. There is a Women's Ride and a Men's Ride... and contrary to (prior) misleading information the rides are a lot of fun. They are more about being social than being fast, and everyone with a bike, helmet and signed-waiver are welcome. Hope you can make it. Liberty! Bicycles needs your help to get the City of St.Catharines back on track with respect to bikes being ridden on sidewalks in town. Too many people have been unnecessarily targeted and fined for doing just that. Check out our long-winded article and see if you can help. The good weather has arrived and our shop is very busy. It seems like everyone (and their sister) has brought a bike into Liberty! Bicycles for a tune-up. The good news is that we are back up to what we call Global Service, and have (more-or-less) caught up in our maintenance department. We are still on about a one-week turn-around, but if you make a repair-reservation we can get your bike back to you in 24-hours. Give us a call at 905-682-1454 and book your tune-up. How much will it cost? Check out our Labour Rates [PDF download]. Pre-Race Demos: Wednesday 28 May from 2:00pm to about 6:00pm the Kona Demo Tour is preceding the second L!B 8x12 Series race in the 12 Mile Creek valley. Come out and try a Kona on the dirt! And, on Wednesday 11 June starting around 3:00pm, representatives from Specialized will be on hand before the race to let you demo some of their bikes, too! Take advantage of the opportunity and ask to try one on the race-course! The Ride of Silence, a somber but worthwhile group-ride, is coming to Niagara Falls on Wednesday 21 May at 7:00pm. It is a memorial ride for cyclists who have been killed or injured while riding. Check out more information about the ride here, and try to take part. Thinking about getting a new bike? Until November 2008, the Government of Ontario is allowing you to buy your bikes (and safety accessories like lights, helmets, mirrors, and bells) without paying PST (aka RST). The catch? The bikes must be under $1000. So, you will save the 8% you would normally be required to pay on those purchases. Good, no? Anything over $1000 is still subject to PST and GST, but those products under $1000 are only subject to GST. We think it is a step in the right direction.
