Here we are on New Years Eve 2014 and finally unleashing the new website to everyone!  

It was really cool and funny this morning.  Brianna turns on her computer and there is an order that came through on this new website, before we even had the domain switched over! Someone found it already!  Exciting way to start the day...but then I ask, "How did that happen?"


As you check things out on our new site, you may find some parts that are not fully operational yet.  We are working on it, so please bear with us.  It is coming!

There has been a year of solid work getting this built.  I am eternally grateful to Brianna for the hours, weeks and months of work (and stress) learning to build the site.  List all the parts and pieces.  Gather all the images.  Just everything.  Thank you Brianna.

Thank you also goes out to Shannon for all of her great effort and efficiency on helping Brianna with the whole process.  You are such an asset to our shop.  Thank you Shannon.

With out these two girls, I would not be here typing this.  Excitement is building.  2015 and everyone out there...let's see what you have for The Service Pavilion!!!

Safety Gear Importance

12/2/2014

2 Comments

 
Here is a topic I've starting speaking about back 14 years ago when I was doing a seminar about safety gear at a racing event.  A topic that is often overlooked in riding and racing with safety gear, specifically helmets.

Everyone, especially the parents out there or new riders, read this. Then read it again. Don't sell yourself or your family short when it comes to safety gear. The most attention should be towards the riders helmet. Not just the brand, but the FIT! Make sure you or anyone else in your crew are wearing the right sized helmet. Just because that's what you've been wearing for the past 10 or 20 years doesn't mean it's right. Here is why:
9 out of 10 people are wearing a helmet that is one size too big.
4 out of those 9 are wearing two sizes too big.
1 out of those 4 are wearing three to five sizes too big. No joke.

You might say that's crazy no way. Trust me. Those numbers are very accurate.

Helmets are where you need to pay attention to what you, your daughter, your son, your wife or whoever wears. It won't matter how much you spent on tires, the bike, the suspension, who did your motor work, how big your transporter is or how cool the paint job is on the bike. We can crash and break limbs, skin up arms and legs. Loose a finger or two. Break necks, backs and tear knees apart, we usually come back another day to ride or race. BUT when you have an injury that you can't get back up from due to a head injury...none of that stuff matters.

Fit is first. I could spend a lot of time about which brands are better than others. We could debate that for years. But all of us know what is good and what is not in the helmet world. The price should not be a factor. If it is, then you are in the wrong sport. Period. People spend more money on their leathers than they do on the helmet! More on gloves and boots than on their helmet. STOP THAT! It's backwards! Skip a couple of races, eat out less over the next three months and save the money and put it towards the best helmet you can get. Set an example for your kids and fellow racers/rider. Because they do watch You(Us).

If you have questions about getting you or someone else fit correctly please contact me. With my business we focus on the fit of helmets. First and foremost.
[email protected] or call 610-960-2245 if you prefer. We'll give you details on how we can check your fit.
Or go to your local dealer that you do business with to check your helmet for fit. If they ask you what size you wear don't tell them. Ask them to get a tape measure out and check your size. If they look at you like you're crazy than maybe that's not where you want to be shopping for your helmets or other safety gear.

But helmets are first. Gloves, boots and leathers are next in line.

Hope that makes some sense to everyone.
