Odyssey Hazzard Cassette Wheels in Stock!!!!!!!!
We received a shipment of Odyssey Hazard Cassette Wheels in today. 36
spoke with one piece 10 tooth drivers. Were letting them go for the nice price of $174.99. Also later this week well
be getting an Animal shipment including Piff Bars and 59fifty Hats.
Woodbridge was good. Im always down to get
outta town for a BMX weekend. Since it was UCI race there was a heavy pro turnout. Its especially cool when its almost in
your backyard. Donny Robinson won Saturday and Warwick took Sunday. I was psyched to see Alan Foster racing in the Masters
Class and our old friend Chill Phil Dawnell made the main in Masters as well and gave Foster and Carnes a helluva run.
Groove Merchants own Jason Morgan picked up wins both days and crushed his class in the mains. Cody Lynn won his
main on Saturday by a mile and I actually made my mine on Saturday and took a 5th. The Groove Merchants race team
is heating up for a summer of domination!!!!!!!!!!!!

Woodbridge VA this weekend!!!
Im packing up for a wild weekend of NBL BMX racing. This weekend means
BMX Dads lecturing about gear ratios and yelling "paddle boooy" at their eight novice sons who if they would just,
"clip-in maaan" are sure to be the next Bubba Harris. Anyway for anyone not going to be in attendance Mr. Dan
Depre has saved you from a weekend of web boredom by flowing us some pics. Pictured above is ol' Dano himself
throwing down a tailtap on a bank to jersey barrier. If you were to put me in a time machine and send me back to 1988 AND
assuming Mr. Depre was re-entering this trick backwards I would certainly argue that this particular trick was called an abubaca,
a trick which I mispronounced until roughly 1993. Hey. How should I know how to pronounce it?? All I had was magazines
to keep me connected with the outer BMX world and they dont come with pronunciations. See how lucky you guys are now?? With
videos you have, in the palm of your hand, a whole BMX vanacular. Anyway I digress. The point is we are closed this weekend.
If you need anything well be open Monday evening. Man, I shouldnt post blogs after drinking all evening!!!!! See ya next week!!!!!!!

Sorry for the lack of updates...
Sometimes things just get too hectic. Thats how the past week has been so sorry for
the lack of updates. In all the chaos I somehow forgot that the Groove Racing Team will be heading to Woodbridge VA for the
NBL Freedom National, so well be closed this coming weekend. If you guys need anything call this week and well take care of
you. Considering the fact that I havn't ridden my bike in months my odds of winning are about as long as a gnats
mandingo. But its always good to get out of town and hang out with your bros and im sure the rest of the team will pull my
weight. I clocked a few hours in working on the new shop today and things seem to be going on schedule. Ill post some pics
up soon. Holla.

Call ahead this weekend
If you havn't heard the rumors already, the shops moving. Yep. Its true.
Im moving the shop to a storefront on North Queen Street in Martinsburg WV. The new shop is 1200 sq. feet which
will be a huge improvement from the tiny space we have here. Right now were shooting for having everything done and moved
in by the first weekend in May. The new building is 160 years old and the renovations are going super slow so well be running
everything outta the Falling Waters shop until then. Ill keep you posted. Anyway between the shop, the new storefront and
my regular 9-5 job times been scarce so you'll have to hang with me for awhile. This weekend Im pulling some extra hours
for my regular job so Ill been in and out all weekend. please call ahead to make sure were open. 304-261-5230

bored slide by and pickup a DVD. We still have a few Facad's, Bad Timing, the New Shook as well as bunch on Sale. We also

Weekend Update
Well were still waiting on the huge order of new Shadow Conspiracy parts.
Apparently a Friday delivery date doesnt mean shit to the UPS because our order has now been scheduled for Monday. To make
up for it we will be open 4-9pm on Monday evening, if you want to get first crack at all the new parts.
Groove Merchants Team Rider Ken Hensell sent over some tasty pics. You might recognize the picture above as the kinker
in front of the Martinsburg Public Library. People have talked about doing this thing for years but never have. If you
look close you can see that there is no runup to it. You might get a half crank at best. Also the courthouse is directly acrossed
the street and covered in Police so you only get one crack at it and its a bust. Ken also went to the Gaithersburg
Skatepark rescently and reports favorably comparing it to Leesburg.
The weathers gona be cold as hell
this weekend so your gona have to bundle up or go ride inside. Also Winchester BMX has cancelled their season opener this
Saturday due to the cold and rescheduled it to a double on the 21st.
