Thanks, Nolan!

Finally…a Post!

Sorry folks, for the lack of blog posts lately. Hopefully the fall biking season will change that.
The summers’ heat is not conducive for anything, but with todays’ temps in the 80’s, inspiration is right around the corner.

In the mean time, here’s one of good old Bender, getting a head trim by barber Jake, atop Zion Cycles. He stopped by the shop with the gang from College Cyclery (Sacramento), on their way to Interbike.

Paul Simon Visit to Zion Cycles

Posted in Photos, Recent Visits on August 31st, 2009 by admin – 1 Comment

Seems like 40 some odd years of autograph seeking/paparazzi have taken their toll on Paul Simon.
Reluctantly, he posed for shot after returning from a ride up the Canyon with his family (Edie Brickell & kids) on some of our rentals.

In no way bike related, but if anyone noticed something missing in the middle of Springdale, it was the El Rio Motel.
Paving the way for the new Sol Foods Market, hopefully open Spring ‘10.
