Outdoor Retailers, Trade Show, August 3-6, Salt Lake City, Utah.

This week one of the annual largest conventions in Salt Lake makes downtown look like an international trade center. A month before the retailer meeting the city began to talk about this event, while now everywhere you can see: Budweiser Welcomes Outdoor Retailer.

For the first time this year there is a real surprise for the guests-participants in the conventions: Electra bike company came with 30 of its 200 models to allow everybody who wants, to try their bikes in downtown Salt Lake. They just scan the badge and give you the bike for 1-2 hours. Most of the bikes have been already sold and many tomorrow or on Saturday will leave the city with this unusual purchase.

Electra  participates in Park N Pedal (Bike solutions for the masses) program.

The company is California based and came for the first time to such convention. Justin Manthe and Chris Holmes share that they both have been very excited.

Electra is located on the south entrance of the Convention Center and offers a free catalog “Way to roll” for everybody who stops by. Your can read about the townie riding position when the traditional bike position is rotated backwards 23 degrees so the upper body is straight up and relaxed, while legs pedal more forward. When it comes to kids, Electra quality and style shrunk to perfection. Electra Flat Foot Technology ensures a flat-foot stop and proper leg extension while riding. There are also exciting accessories.

Outdoor retailers from all states of the USA and abroad are everywhere around and they all look happy being back to Salt Lake this Year.

Welcome to outdoor retailers and good luck during the convention!
