So happy for Drew!

THE BIKE

For about 5 years Drew has been dreaming of getting a Santa Cruz Blur. Now that we're back in Durango Drew does ride several days a week so I think he does deserve the bike he wants. Unfortunately, the bike costs about the same as a small car. There's no way he could pay full price for the bike. This is where the GREAT guys at Pedal the Peaks come in. Pedal the Peaks rents the Blur and they had the exact bike that Drew wanted. For months Drew would go in and ask Cliff (the owner) if he would sell him the rental bike. The bike is a year old so it is discounted. Cliff kept saying he needed to think about it, go over the numbers, etc. Drew never gave up. Over Halloween weekend Durango hosted a National Trials Competition. This was one of the biggest Trials Competition in the country. People came from all over to compete. Cliff, from Pedal the Peaks, was one of the competitors. We went to the competition and got some great photos of Cliff. Drew emailed the photos to Cliff and the next day he called Drew and said he would sell him the bike! They did some customizing for Drew and he picked up the bike yesterday. There are no words to explain how happy Drew is. Now, I just hope his knees don't give him any more trouble so he can keep riding! The Doctor did say that a full suspension bike would be easier on the knees so I think this is just what he needs!
