Santa Cruz World Demo Tour has finally made it back to California with the first stop at CBE!  Kirt Voreis and his wife Lindsay are making way through our area to hold a Santa Cruz Bicycles Demo!  We will have Blur XC's, Blur LT's, Nomads', VP Free's, Jackals, and V10's for anyone who is interested.  So here is what you need to do.  Call CBE and RSVP the model you are interested in, show up that day ready to roll!  Don't forget to bring your shoes, pedals and helmet.  Once everyone has been checked in and the time is right, we will all leave together in critical mass style through town and into the canyon.

Calling all Santa Cruz owners!
