While we were out…
Murphy’s Law being what it is, our container stuffed with Performer recumbents arrived while the shop was closed! Thankfully, I was able to meet the driver and get 60 recumbents unloaded into the shop with the help of former mechanic Frank and my coworker Ginger. So if you’re looking to buy a Performer, we have

While we were away in the first half of February, an ICE Full Fat was delivered to the shop and had to remain dormant until our return. It has since been sprung from its box, but far too early for Spring, which works out in this case because we got some great photos of it

The shop will be open again on February 17th. Oh well, enjoy this Valentine’s Day card from ICE in the meantime. We’d send it to you, but we

ICE Trikes earlier this year unveiled their upcoming Full Fat 26fs folding trike, a design based on the custom trike they built for Maria Leijerstam and her Antarctic ride.

We were big fans of the Purple Sky flags when they were available, but, sadly, we can no longer get them as Purple Sky went out of business due to supply and manufacturing issues. As a result, we’ve had a bit of a flag gap and have worked to find alternatives. The result is our

RBR customer Bruce D is enjoying his new AZUB TRI-con and reports back, “It’s a beauty!” As you can tell in the folding photo, Bruce has some experience with folding trikes.

It’s no secret that we keep a lot of Cats at RBR. Big cats, little cats, fast cats. No angry cats. But as any Cat owner knows, too many in one place can be a smelly affair. That’s why we have loads of litter shipped into RBR, to make sure our Cats and our shop
