Quotes from the article in The Union newspaper today:
"New ownership of bicycle shop in Nevada City preserves the passion for cycling culture"
"Electric bikes or e-bikes make up approximately 70 percent of sales at Tour of Nevada City Bicycle Shop located at 457 Sacramento Street in Nevada City."
“We have what we call the Outpost, and originally it was kind of a few rental bikes, but we just invested in 30 plus bikes up there to turn it into a demo center,” Greene said. (Map below)
"A lot of bikes Greene sells are high performance, full suspension mountain bikes, and most of them are electric."
“The Outpost is sitting right at the trailhead … It’s one of only two places I know of in North America where you can try out a whole variety of full suspension bikes and actually get immediately on the trail.”
“We’re really tightly involved with the local bike team, the Miners, which are the NICA team. They’re a great development program,” Green said. “They’re incredible. These kids are ten times faster than I ever was at their age."
"BONC, which is the Bicyclists of Nevada County, maintains the trail system has got such passion and effort put into it, according to Greene." **
** Note from MLT: It's not just the bicyclists of BONC who maintains the Pioneer Trail, but also the equestrians from Gold Country Trails Council who established the Pioneer Trail in 1981. Their 700+ active members continue to maintain it with other trails groups, including Nevada County Woods Riders, with oversight from Tahoe National Forest.
“The Bay Area doesn’t even have anything that touches this,” Greene said. “I think this is going to be a hub for cycling in all of Northern California, if not all of California. We get people coming over from Nevada, Oregon, Washington. They’re traveling all over the place to get here these days.”
