The Premiere of Rapha Continental | 2/24
We’re proud to kick off 2011 North American Handmade Bicycle Show events with our friends at Rapha, who’ll be premiering their latest Rapha Continental Film, along with a screening of D’Acciaio (Of Steel) which captures master frame builder Dario Pegoretti in his Italian workshop.
Both films will be shown on the big screen and we’ll have food and drinks. We can’t wait to see you here, and kick off the 2011 NAHBS in style. Free to attend, come enjoy!
Two previews to get you stoked:

Rapha Gentlemen’s Ride | SAT 2/26 | 6:30am
Date: February 26, 2011 @ 6:30 am Location: Mellow Johnny’s Bike Shop 400 Nueces Street
Last year’s ride, as documented here by Jeremy Dunn, was fantastic.
If you will be in Austin for NAHBS this year. Wake up early and make sure you do this ride.
Join MJ’s and our friends at Rapha for their 2011 NAHBS edition of the Rapha Gentlemen’s ride (ladies welcome too!).
NAHBS and Rapha don’t come to town every week so we’re rolling out a special ride from our top secret training ride book.
Delicious Juan Pelota Cafe Coffee at 6:30am and ride leaves at 7am with Nuetral support provided by SRAM.
This 2-2.5 ride will enjoy a more spirited pace (17-18ish) and sample some of the beauty that is Austin–including the hills west of town.
Start your day off right and finish up in time to enjoy a full day at the 2011 North American Handmade Bike Show.
Be sure to RSVP on FB and even better on Rapha Rendezvous on your iphone.
