Bike Hugger 

Now that sounds cool! Is interbike worth it? Might have to get me there sometime.

Yes and no—it’s a mind-numbing trade show that isn’t open to the public. So you can just bump into Magnus Backstedt or get lost in all the booths and the loathing of Vegas. You’ll also find yourself lost in the disillusionment of the global economy when you start seeing the same carbon frame branded by the big names and how the industry just repurposes every design it’s ever done.

However, there is a lot more going on than in past years (races, events, rides) and we’re working now on some hugga events with other bloggers.

And there is [very good riding there](http://bikehugger.com/2007/09/cycling_in_vegas.htm).

My method of surviving Vegas is 2 days max.
