Things are going great over in Parkersburg (where we're opening a second location next month). What's even better is that the road riding between here and there is awesome. I needed to get some work done over there yesterday, so I tried a few new roads along the way, including one that slipped me into Belpre at rush hour with only light traffic. My Trek sales rep, Bob Myers, was kind enough to drive me home after our P'burg meeting, which made for a great day of work and play. Stay tuned for updates about the new location, and for news about fun doings this fall here in Athens as well.
