That's totally unreal! It's like a bike shop with Jamis bikes! Incroyable! What a find. I would have to walk more than a half-mile from my house to find a shop with Jamis bikes! http://www.burlingamebikes.com/jamis-bikes/

Hey, if you can pitch your shops, I can pitch mine.

But do _you_ get a commission? ;-)

I'm thinking of hitting them up for a t-shirt the next time I'm in the shop. http://www.burlingamebikes.com/wp-co...11/T-Shirt.jpg I think the new design will say "Portland" so we're not confused with the SF South Bay.

While we're at it, I was #AMAZED to find that there was this bicycle shop called Western Bikeworks in Portland. They have all sorts of stuff! https://www.westernbikeworks.com/ And they price match! I've never heard of price-matching before. You should go on line and order, and when you do, remember to type in the special code MONEY4JAY, which will get you free shipping on purchases over $75! I've never heard of free shipping! Awesome! I'm ordering my new flash deal BMC 015 Granfondo GF02 Carbon Tiagra Road Bike right now. https://www.westernbikeworks.com/pro...agra-road-bike Hurry! Only 3 left at that price!

Do you have a Portland version of these colors?

In PDX, it's not about whether you can find commuting gear -- it's whether you can find artisanal, vegan, all long-staple cotton panniers hand-sewn by lesbian Buddhist monks. Those are so damned hard to find -- and really the only panniers worth owning.

You can find that stuff in Santa Cruz.

yeah but in Cruss it costs an arm n a leg.....in Potland they do it for nothing in the BK's parking lot.

Do you get a commission on your posts as the gorilla (or is that
guerrilla - one who fights by sabotage and harassment) marketers do?
Or just posting interesting information.

Makes you realise how fortunate we Europeans are, being able to shop online directly from Germany, where the good stuff comes from.
