It’s dark. It’s cold. It’s wet. I’m depressed and you’re depressed...not for long... The Defroster by Specialized Bicycles is our anti-depressant. It’s reflective, it’s warm and it is waterproof. Sad no more!We have a great size run and wishing everyone a Happy Thanksgiving. Be safe, ride safe and we look forward to seeing everyone over the holiday season!

We’ve got em!

Bicycle/cyclist made with pata de negro (ham) and queso (cheese). Yay (Ole)!!!

To get the holiday season kicked off with an impressive promotion, how does this sound? We have a new, unused Street Strider Elliptical machine which had an original srp of somewhere around $2000. We are willing to let this engineering marvel go for only $599. It’s an indoor trainer and suitable for outdoors like an Ellipti-go. $599 and no joke, it’s an amazingly well built machine.

Hoping you all got out this weekend for some road or off miles. What a weekend for pro cycling too! An emotional win at Ghent for Cav, a brutal Paris Tours and non stop action in the Giro.

Check out Coach Joe of The Waterville MTB Club on Oneida County Sheriff’s Office live this morning!

Happy Halloween from the lion and the lion tamer!

Specialized Levo wins worlds two years in a row!

We’ve said it before and this time we say it with congratulations to the 2020 Elite World Road Champ: Julian Alaphilippe! Yes his name is fun to say and he is now a World Champion aboard a Specialized Bicycles Tarmac!

Happy Stage 19 and our Friday contest. All you need to do is like or comment and you’re in the running for a $40 store certificate. If a Specialized Bicycles rider on the Deceuninck - Quick-Step Cycling Team or BORA-hansgrohe takes the stage, we will choose at random a lucky winner! Come on...good chance with Sam Bennett or Peter Sagan.

A very happy birthday to our own Steve N! He and the guys are celebrating today and invite you to swing by for a slice of cheese cake!

We love Specialized Bicycles here at the shop and we loved the emotion Sam showed during his post race interview. Winning is an amazing sensation substituted by nothing making all of the sacrifice and commitment to competition well worth it. Sam Bennett: a worthy member of the Wolfpack!

Happy Labor Day weekend from our oh so pro and massively busy service department. Greg will enjoy reading a few tales of the pro team mechanics while he deserves Sunday and Monday as holiday. Justin is already taking a well deserved breather. These 2 techs really do their best to keep customers rolling and wow, we appreciate all they do. Enjoy the weekend, we are here now until 4:00 and we will resume business Tuesday at 10.

These adorable bears aren’t related to the TdT Credit Leyonnois stuffed lion but they represent race weekend coming up on Sept 13th. May we invite you to join us this Sunday for a gravel pre-ride meeting in Thendara at 12:00? Comment with questions and hope to see a bunch of sign ups! https://runsignup.com//OldFo/THEFORGE262MileGravelGrinder

Someone please buy this Cervelo RS. It’s a lightly used 58cm for $999 and we do have several very nice road bikes here on consignment. Phone us or stop over...and pass the word on this Cervelo!

As ridden by yesterday’s electrifying winner Julian Alaphilippe. His name is just fun to say isn’t it? Specialized Bicycles Turbo Cotton, in stock and ready to rumble!

It’s a beautiful day to hit the road or trails. If you haven’t tried Hammer Nutrition energy gel, the taste is subtle, the viscosity is just right and gluten free. It’s not a bad idea to carry an extra gel or 2 in case your riding partners start to fade! You’ll make a friend for life.

Happy TdF stage 1. Lil warm up contest: Post your answer in the comments and we will choose at random a winner for a Hammer Nutrition gift pack. Name the bike ridden by GVA’s CCC Team. We’ll announce the winner around 4:00 today.
