Is anyone going to interbike 2015 from so cal? if so, i can pay gas $$ for a ride.
 
Please post up if you are going, I will PM you to co-ordinate lunch-meets so you can swing by (if you want)...

I know this may seem a little early to be talking about this, but...the best deals on travel and housing are when you make reservations way ahead of time. Last year was awesome...E-bikes are very big now (not quite 10% of Interbike, but the meet is so huge, anything near 10% is really large). I met Justin from Grin Tech/ebikes.ca, cell-Man from em3ev.com, Jason from e-bikekit.com, Terry from Pedego, and ES member Dave Kaufmann...

This year, Paul from em3ev.com will be at booth 6027 on occasion.

14th, 15th, (Mon/Tue) Outdoor demo, located 30 minute drive south of the Mandalay, free busses every thirty minutes (test ride anything there on a hillside set of tracks)

16th, 17th, (Wed/Thu) Convention center, only bicycle industry passes allowed, must register to get a pass. (Still time to get a part-time job at a bike shop)

18th, (Friday) open to the general public, very crowded.

General purpose map of hotels close to Interbike (at the Mandalay). Remember, the New York, New York, plus the MGM and Tropicana have pedestrian bridges to cross the street, and the Excalibur has an elevated tram to the Manadalay.

Mandalay Bay is where its at, The Luxor and Excalibur are a short walk to Interbike

I have a pass lined up and plan to be there. Hung out with Hemdan, Corbin, and Roshan and got to meet some interesting folks including TurboBob last year.

:D
 
Definitely need to plan a Friday night ES bash in Vegas.
Just wish it were easy to have a bike there. I would love to bring one of the Fat bikes were are building.

I want to bring my bike too but have concerns about storage. Last year, I stayed at this little resort that would have been fairly easy to just sneak my bike in the room (due to the layout). I would think larger hotels might have an issue with you wheeling a bike through the elevators. Maybe a bike cover and giant locks will prevent any issues.

And I'm certainly up for a bit of fun on Friday night, just not as much 'fun' as last year. :oops:
 
G'Luck all (Ebike Rebels bunch)! At spring bike show in Toronto this year, Prez. of Toronto Electric Riders Assoc. declared this "The Year of The Ebike". Go forth and multiply.
 
Gonna need a prop 65 warning on that T-shirt for me to wear it in Cali :wink:

California can eat a bag of dicks with their silly laws. :lol: They only manage to get a few right.

Any Endless Sphere folks planning to go to Interbike 2015 in Vegas this September?

I just booked in to do the outdoor demos days. Woo Hoo! I'm going to ride every e bike they let me get my hands on. Bringing my cruiser to ride in the veterans charity ride, and do some riding on old 66 while on the road trip.

I'll be there from Sunday night, to Thursday morn, but could change plans to meet up with folks coming for the public access day Friday.
