PtboPics: Mountain Bike Movie Premiere "Strength In Numbers" At Splice

 The Mountain Bike movie by Anthill Films, Strength In Numbers, premiered in Peterborough on Saturday night at Splice to an enthusiastic crowd.

 

Numerous models of Trek Bikes were on display from Wild Rock, and be sure to drop in there to learn more about which line suits your riding style.

Mike Watt, owner of The Plush Boutique, was on hand to show off the new line of Levi's 511 Commuter Line which are perfect for cyclists. Water resistant, 3M Reflective Tape on the interior cuffs, and pockets with features galore sure show Levi's dedication at gearing this to cyclists.

Elton John Is Breaking (Some) Hearts In Peterborough

After the online ticket ordering system went down this morning, it became a scramble to purchase tickets for his upcoming September show. Some went down to the Memorial Centre to join the lineup, while others stuck to dialing the busy phone lines and persistently trying the Memorial Centre website. How did you fair? And will anyone be able to get our Elton John vinyl signed?
