A Better Than Ever Seattle Bike Expo

March 16th, 2010 in Events | leave a response

This past weekend the Norco truck and trailer packed up and head down to the 21st annual Seattle Bike expo. Put on by the Cascade Bicycle Club this has become the largest bicycle consumer show in North America. With more than two hundred exhibitors and thousands of consumers showing up the weekend was a flurry of activity. Norco had some near-ceiling-high towers set up with a display of bikes alongside  the latest and greatest from Axiom and Mace.

Next to the Norco setup always seemed to be a mob of people waiting to see the next Ryan Leech Trials Show or Artistic Cycling Demonstration. Having Ryan do 4 shows over the two days was a treat for everyone at the show. Having the Artistic Cycling team as well was simply icing on the cake.

If the expo, the trials demo and the artistic cycling wasn’t enough for you, Ryan was also leading a morning Yoga session both days of the show. A group of yoga enthusiasts showed up each day to partake in Ryan’s class.

With more than 200 exhibitors at the show it took a fair bit of time to see everything. That is if you could actually see everything. Three of the exhibitors present also happened to be Norco Factory Team sponsors FSA, Ergon and Nuun.

    I agree! We were there to promote the Seattle Century (July 31) and Reach the Beach (May 15, Oregon). We’ve been going to the event for years but this year seemed extra fresh and fun. I especially loved the German artistic cycling. I’ve seen such acts many times on YouTube, but never live. How cool!

    We’re looking forward to seeing tons of Seattle Bike Expo folks at our events!

    Oh yeah – good stuff this year with the artistic bike dancers, really good workshops and a cool after party. I hope a ton of people who were there can come down to Portland for Filmed by Bike. One of these days, maybe we’ll bring the festival to Seattle! Good seeing all of you out there, the fellow vendors we know.

    Thanks, Norco, for getting Ryan Leech there for entertainment. And your display looked HOT!
