WINTER GEAR SLIDESHOW

We are stocking up for the 2012-13 winter season here at EB. If you have something in particular you're interested in riding this year don't wait too long to grab it. With the way last winter went, most companies have cut back to some degree with the amount of product made for this winter. Even last year a lot of the higher end gear was sold out by Thanksgiving in certain sizes and colors. Ya snooze ya lose...

Here's a bunch of shots of some of the gear we have in stock right now.

Leominster local appreciation JAM NEW DATE!!!
