You can check out current bicycle lighting technology in use at our next Night Ride on the Towpath Trail this Friday, July 9, 2010. The ride begins at 8:00pm from our Peninsula store. The store will be open before the ride, so you can stock up on new headlights and taillights or any other last-minute needs.
