If you follow mountain biking you are probably sick of the wheel size debate. Well, on Tuesday June 25th, Jamis will be swinging through with a sampling of their 29er and 650b rigs so that you can get off the internet forums and on the trails to see what you think. Jamis has been leading the drive to make 650B (aka 27.5") feel at home in the bike industry and their bikes reflect that commitment. So, come on by between 3pm-7pm and take a spin on some of our favorite local trails with us.

Join us and other Burlington cycling enthusiasts on a guided (or self-guided) tour of historic Burlington on the 15th anniversery of Cycle the City route. Meet at Maglianero Cafe at 9am to depart at 10am. All ages, abilities, and bicycles are welcome. More info at Local Motion.

From the 1860s until the First World War is a time period historians refer to as The Fin De Siecle, which is French for, The End of the Century. Sure, it sounds like a glossed up academic term to describe, a normal change from one century to the next. But, this period was extra special, and I think deserves to be referred to in somewhat glossy terms. In Europe at this time the world changed dramatically. The Second Industrial Revolution was in full swing and this can be seen as the context for revolutions in economic, social, and gender relationships.
