An event organized and sponsored by Novara (our bike brand) here at REI headquarters in Kent, Wash., to highlight and celebrate the great love of bikes, riding bikes and pretty much anything else related to bikes. Novara had their new 2011 lines on display. In a way, it was an open-ended day to high-five anything/everything bike. As it turns out, there are a lot of people that like to high-five anything/everything bike. (Sweet!) bicycle, bikes, carnivelo, novara, rei, Cycling
