While Interbike is expressly for the bicycle industry and trade, the move to Reno creates a different backdrop for the annual event. The announcement that the Bosch Sponsored Open Air District, which includes the Circuit Test Track is coming was just published by Bicycle Retailer. The same group producing the new eMTB Experience and the EnduroCross eMTB Challenge race series (Electric Bike Events) will set up and manage the outdoor pavilion, which in addition to the exhibitors, will have a food court and a shaded canopy area. The fenced course will be over 1600 linear feet in length and will have the usual hill and terrain lane to test all types of bikes (electric-assist and traditional). Show management is planning a hosted happy hour to kick off the new area from 5-6pm on Wednesday, September 19th with free beer!
