TESTIMONIALS

"Given the cost and time associated with taking an entire staff to Vegas for Interbike, I was pleased at the opportunity to attend OutDoor Demo East. It was valuable for the staff to test product and then meet up immediately to share feedback with each other. Between the demos, clinics and industry party, Interbike identified the most important elements of a demo event and created a great package that my entire staff could participate in. - Lee Rogers, owner of Bicycle Therapy in Philadelphia

"Without a demo event local to the east coast, a fair amount of my employees would never be able to attend a trade event. I sent 16 memebers of my staff to OutDoor Demo East." - Brad Hill, owner of Goodale's in Manchester, NH

"We saw a lot of dealers we didn't see out west. It was good for us to get New England and Mid-Atlantic dealers under our bikes. They are an important market for us and they carry different categories and selections of bikes than western United States retailers do. We also brought our marketing and product development staff to OutDoor Demo East, so they could optain feedback from the attending dealers. It was definitely worth it for us to attend this event." - Steve Thomas, national sales manager for Jamis Bicycles
