Interbike 2012

[burgess1108]

I'm headed to Vegas with some friends and it just happens to be the weekend Interbike is in town. They're not riders so they wouldn't care about it, but since I wouldn't normally be anywhere in the vicinity of the show, I'd like to check it out if at all possible. Anyone know how a civilian can score a pass for a few hours?

only way is for somebody in the industry to help you out.
know any shops really well?
at least go to cross vegas-
the stupidest cross race in human history.

95 degrees at 10pm
desert dust kicking up the whole time
the racers are coughing for a week afterward...
but

there is a big crowd. its become quite an attraction

Unfortunately, I don't land until Friday and CrossVegas is on Weds night.

Skip it and keep an eye on the internet after the show. Time better spent catching a cirque du soleil show with our friends.

The only thing worth going to Interbike for is the demo day. The rest is just Taiwanese junk dealers and strippers in SRAM/Marzocchi/whatever shirts.

You say that like it's a bad thing.

Anyone have an extra pass or even one I can borrow for a couple hours just to swing through the center? I'll even buy you a beer or two.
