Last Wednesday evening, I ventured down to a great bike shop in Golden called The Bike Station to meet with my good friend Brett who is the local rep for Bell/Giro, Sharkies, Craft and Look. It is a small, quaint and family owned shop that has such a great vibe to it. I love shops like those. You always feel so comfortable walking in and get the best service and advice EVER!

Brett asked me to come by because they were having an all women’s event with a great presentation by some of the folks from Trek and of course, lots of good food. For those of you who know me well enough, if there is food involved…I’m there! So after committing to attend and do a little presentation and mingling about Timex, I knew I couldn’t come empty handed. I brought with me a brand new Timex women’s specific Bodylink GPS watch and data recorder for the raffle which I had been informed there would be.

It was a very hot item, as it should have been sitting next to bike parts and apparel, and was won by a woman who will be doing a ride across America this summer! It couldn’t have been more perfect. We exchanged contact information and she’s sooo excited to learn how to use it and to let me know how the trip goes. I was also able to give several other ladies information about the other health and fitness products Timex has to offer which was lots of fun.

It’s so rewarding leaving events like that knowing that you can help others become involved in a sport that is not only challenging, but quite intimidating for beginners. Life is just too good sometimes :)
