My girlfriend and I caught the show on Saturday. My favorite part was putti ng faces to the names on this list, and the bikes were outstanding. I agr ee most were strong commuters, tourers, all around bikes. Overslept and missed the bike ride Sunday morning (I live an hour away), but I got ple nty of ideas on how to deck out a couple of my bikes from the show. Thanks to everyone who brought this show to my doorstep.
