I got some *****'n new Specialized Expert shoes at the show from Duke's. Their line is that the store is still re-opening in the same old location; however, they're looking for a nearby place to rent so they can do business around April. Good luck to them.

My opinion of the show was ... meh. The Winterbourne track bikes and Mike's Motobecane were real highlights for me as well, but the show was very boring on the whole. I guess you had to be looking for a new ride to be really excited. Trek was clearing out a 57cm Sarthe for $1199 and Duke's had a Cannondale cyclocross bike for $999, which I was really tempted to buy.

Overall impression: too much carbon fiber, not enough imagination.
