Interbike has promised a range of improved facilities at its two-day OutDoor Demo this year.
A 40-foot by 40-foot tented ‘Oasis’ area will be on hand for riders to recuperate after demoing the new kit, as will new shaded areas, new changing facilities, with more riding time – and free coffee, beer and ice cream.
Riders are then bussed back to the Sands Expo Centre after a full day of riding.
The second day will start earlier following feedback. The new hours will run from 9 am to 5 pm on September 12th and 8am to 5pm on September 13th.
"We are going out of our way to make sure dealers and exhibitors are cool, hydrated and have access to great food throughout each day," said Pat Hus, Interbike’s new MD.
"We want everybody to get the most out of this event and keeping people comfortable is our number one goal. We’re investing in a number of initiatives to support this effort including a greatly expanded array of food options, shaded and cooled seating oasis, additional water stations, and, for the first time, cold beer for attendees at the end of the day."
"I really think people are going to see some significant improvements on what is already a great event."
Interbike show runs straight after the OutDoor Demo, from September 14th to 16th at Sands Expo and Convention Centre, Las Vegas.
