Spring is Here I Thought

Spring is here I thought. I’ve managed to get out on some rides the last several days and enjoy the nice weather while clearing my mind. It is a little colder now but I guess that is just to remind us to enjoy the nice weather when it comes once and for all.

Things have been busy. I always like spring the new stuff is coming in the store. In many ways it is like Christmas.

The Spring 07 Descente Clothing has arrived along with Louis Garneau, Castelli and Cannondale. I’ve been busy looking at the Fall 07 Clothing lines as well and the Castelli stuff especially looks hot.

On the component side we just got some of the new colored light action Speedplay pedals in stock. I even got a pink (my wife’s favorite color) pair that hopefully I can have my wife try out. I just need to have a warmer day when we are both free so that we can ride together. These pedals have gotten a good review so far from one of the employees that is currently using them. She was excited to see how much easier it was to get in and out of them.

One of the most exciting things to come into the store has been a SystemSix with the Liquigas Team paint job on it. This bike looked great in the store but even better in person. So much so that I am going to make sure that we keep one around for customers to check out.

About Ernest

Ernest is the owner of the Crofton Bike Doctor located in the Village of Waugh Chapel Shopping Center. Ernest has been in the industry since 1989 when he first started to work at the Bike Doctor of Arnold. During that time I developed a love for cycling and retail. I graduated from the University of Maryland and live and ride locally. I enjoy riding off road and on the road as well as doing a little bike touring. As a teenager I did a trip in Maine and then over to Novia Scotia which helped cement my love for riding. Since then I have done tours in the Canyons of Utah as well as several trips along the C&O Canal. Today I have both mountain bikes and road bikes that I enjoy riding. One of the most exciting things now is my wife is beginning to develop a passion for riding and we have begun mountain bike together as well as some light road riding.
