When he unveiled the idea for
Mellow Johnny's, Lance said he hoped Austin could
someday be like Portland, the awesomest place to be a bike commuter in America, and wants his shop to promote bike commuting. The shop will have showers and locker rooms, and once gas hits $6 a gallon, won't have to work too hard to promote bikes as a mode of transportation.
The shop opens at 7 am, and Grand Opening day will feature special guests, book signings, giveaways, and more. Come and discover a shop for people who ride bikes, want to ride bikes, or just think about bikes. You should really see this place.
Don't quote me, but I'm betting Lance Armstrong might be one of the "special guests."
