Other note, big excitements coming up. Amy's Ride is coming to town on November 1. Register early and take advantage of our offer of 10% off Parts and Accessories and 15% off services for Amy's Ride participants. Inside Line are back in Willunga this Sunday, head down to Loud's Hill Rd if you want to see the gravity lovers turn Mt Terrible into Mt Awesome-to-the-Max. And a reminder to all veteran races to get in as many hill climbs as possible this month, the SDVLCC Oxygen Cycles Twin Peaks race is only six weeks away!
