L!B 8x12 Off-Road Series Status for 8 July: TBA

Please note: Liberty! Bicycles will be closed Wednesday 1 July for Canada Day.

The St.Catharines Cycling Club Youth MTB Group has donated some race-jerseys to be given as prizes for L!B 8x12 Short Course participants. Last Wednesday's (No.4) random draw winners are #313 Emily Shaver, and #289 James Conner. Come into Liberty! Bicycles to claim your jerseys before the next event! Two prize jerseys will be drawn following each remaining race. Good luck to all the Short Course Participants!

Great night at L!B 8x12 No.4! It's really Summer! Congratulations to the winners, as well as all the participants! Results have been posted. Please let us know if you see any errors or omissions; We will make corrections as soon as possible. The course was in fantastic condition. There has been a lot of hard work put in by Marv Srigley, as well as several volunteers who have given time to fix-up the trails. Thanks to all of you.


In addition to the L!B 8x12 Series SAFETY NOTICE, we have created a new rating system for all L!B 8x12 events. "Star" ratings are given to those participants who go out of their way to help injured riders. Those helpful individuals will receive a $20 Liberty! Bicycles Gift Card for their assistance, each time. "Flags" are also part of our new rating system, and they are not so good... It's a "two flags and you are out" system. That's two flags, not three, based on confirmed incidents. Yes, it's sort of like playing hard-ball. We want a safe and fun Series. Until then, thanks to everyone for coming out and being part of the Liberty! Bicycles 8x12 Off-Road Series. Cheers!

We still need some volunteers to help during our L!B 8x12 events: We need timers, recorders, number-barkers, chaperones for the short course, and some set-up and sweep help. If you think you can help, or know someone else who might be interested, please get in contact with us at the shop and let us know. Or, just show-up and lend a hand. Helping hands make for more fun and a better Series. Thanks!

Liberty! Bicycles welcomes Jeremy Clarke into the shop as a new member of our team. An import from Vancouver, he brings with him over 17 years within the bike "industry." We are very excited to have him onboard. His know-how and expertise helps us offer our clients the very best in customer service. Make sure you say hi when you see him. Welcome Jeremy!

If you are looking for rides, races and adventures in Niagara, there are lots on the horizon: The Short Hills Cycling Club has a fantastic calendar of MTB-related events. If you are more into Road, sprint over to the St.Catharines Cycling Club, or cruise along with the Niagara Freewheelers. There is something for every cyclist.

NO PST on bikes under $1000! Until the end of 2010, the Government of Ontario is allowing you to buy your bikes (and safety accessories like lights, helmets, mirrors, and bells) without paying PST (aka RST). Good, no? Anything over $1000 is still subject to PST and GST, but those products under $1000 are only subject to GST. We think it is a step in the right direction. One day we hope all bikes will be tax exempt....

Liberty! Bicycles is happy to introduce a new member of our corporate work-force: It's Jeremy Clarke! Say hello when you see him in the shop! Welcome Jeremy!


Nutcase Helmets! They are new, fresh and cool, and now available at Liberty! Bicycles. Use them to protect your brain.

Made in New Zealand. $289. It's great for kids from 1 to 5 years old. http://www.wishbonedesign.com
