Visiting the Mother Ship..Quality Bicycle Products (QBP).

This past weekend I left the warm temperatures in Virginia and jumped on a plane to Minneapolis, MN. It is just outside Minneapolis where QBP calls home. You may not recognize the name QBP but you probably have heard of their brands: Salsa, Surly, 45 North are just a few great things they bring to the bike world.

One of highlights of the trip to QBP was seeing some of the new items from Cogburn Outdoors. This hunting fat tire bike and other hunting accessories might end up being a pretty big deal in the outdoor industry!  Do you think this might catch on in Virginia or WV? This might end up being a  tool to bridge the gap between two forest users!
This is just a small portion of the warehouse space at Q. They run a clean, tight ship! It is hard to walk around and not just grab a sharping cart...They have everything you dream about!

What do you get when you mix a bunch of bikers, beer, frigid temperatures & fat bikes? Yes,  fat tire snow races around the trails of the warehouse. A fun night for all who chose to stick around for some of the late night fun!

Hope to go back next year for Frostbike!
