I was in the industry for 17 years. I've been a wrench, salesman, store manager, service manager, sales/warranty/sponsorship/etc at FSA. Recently got out of the industry for a better paying/more regular schedule type job. I do miss it sometimes... only sometimes...

Best name for a bike shop. Ever. Too bad you gotta deal with gaper tourists though. In my experience, Tahoe vacationers are some of the worst.

Sort of work for the industry - I work with "special behaivioural needs" (i.e. very disruptive) kids who have been excluded from normal school lessons. I teach them about maths, technology, graphic design and whatever else I can using bikes (mainly BMXs) as examples and a basis for practical work

Thanks dude, wish I thought of it.
Man, it's been rental hell this week. Been putting people on $2000 plus Rocky Mountain's to cruise the bike path because we've been running out of cruisers every morning.

Well I kind off work for the industry... with the obscene amount of money I spend on bikes I pay a large portion of industry-people's paychecks.

oh yeah, used to work part-time at a bikeshop as wrench-sales guy, in belgium that is.
