The Snow Is Here!

Winter took its sweet time but just like that the snow has arrived!  We may not see dirt again until April or May.  Or maybe it'll be 60 degrees next week...isn't New England great?!  Either way you've got some tasks on your cycling to-do lists:

1. Show your main steed some love.  We had a LONG riding season this year thanks to El Nino.  If your bike is getting hung up for the winter don't put it away wet.  Let us clean out this season's grit and grime, tighten and grease those bushings and bearings so your ride can hibernate in style and be ready to hit the ground running in 2016.

2. You should probably get a fat bike. Yeah, all these new smart trainers and Zwift are great and make indoor riding borderline bearable but let's be honest. You want to be outside. We can get you there. The market is full of great options now. You need affordable yet solid or stacked and drool worthy?  Enjoyment level will probably be equal and we can help with either.

3. Ride! Get out there! Be Social! Join our Strava Club Page to connect with local riders. We've got some fun promotions in the work for next year you won't want to miss!

As always drop us a line or stop by the shop!

So Long 2015

Hard to believe we are clear of Thanksgiving and barreling right through the Holidays. 2016 will be here before you know it.

Its a transition time of year. Some bikes are getting cleaned up and put away (we can help with that) and others are getting tuned up and ready to come out (we can help with that too!). In the coming weeks we'll be looking to make room for 2016 here at the shop so be on the lookout for deals.

We'll be listing clearance items here: http://shop.chainlinecycles.com/clearance.html

Demo bikes, frames, all sorts of goodies...check back often!

Holy Week Hangover

Congrats everyone! We made it through Holy Week in one piece...sort of.  Drained, shattered, pulverized and any other word you can think of that embodies jamming a whole lot of cyclocross into 12 days or so.  What doesn't kill us right?!

We had a great time and it was great hanging with everyone in the #NECX.  Now its time to clean those bikes off, tune them up and get ready to do it all over again.  Lots of great races coming as we head into Oct.

As much as we love cross we can't help but let our minds wander to a few months from now when the flakes will be flying and we'll swap our 33mm tires out for some 4.8's.  Fat biking is the most fun way to keep your fitness from completely falling off over the winter.  Sell the trainer on Craigslist, you won't need it.

We'll be having some great deals coming this winter.  Sign up for the mailing list here so you can be the first to know the scoop!

We've got what you need to get you out there and enjoying the outdoors no matter what your preferred terrain.

For you gravel grinders why not come in and check out the new Niner RLT's or if a CX course is where you prefer to do battle it doesn't get much better than the Niner BSB.  We know all the best gravel roads in the Lake's Region.  Once you've got the bike you need to know where to go!

Bugs haven't been too bad this year and the singletrack is riding great! We've got full lines from Niner and Rocky Mountain to get you out there shredding; XC, Trail, Freeride. What's your pleasure? We can help you spec any build to get you just what you need at a great price.

Although we hate to admit it winter will be here again before you know it, but its ok! We've got fat bikes from Rocky Mountain, and new this year Reid Fat bikes.  Super affordable and great quality.  Never ride a trainer in the winter again!  There is a reason fat bikes have become so popular, they're just fun!

Don't waste any more time! Head into the shop and lets chat about your next bike. We guarantee smiles for miles.

The thaw is on and soon we will be riding in the wood enjoying the bug season, but for now it is sandy roads and full on Hub deep muddy gravel roads. The last few weeks have already been full of events. The Vermont Overland Maple adventure #vomar was a muddy Success and super fun to boot. Now with a weekend off for easter we roll into what appears to be a total Mud fest the #Rasputitsa Gravel race. this Should be 47 miles of smiles.

   We hope you are all getting out when you can . So go out and get some spring base in. Most of all have fun.
