I stopped into Sunrise Bike and Boards (Sunrise Sports) last night.  I've got to say, that shop looks a lot different.  They had a lot more bikes than I've previously seen in there and they are certainly making an appeal to the triathlete.

I just stopped in to check on something quickly, but ended up talking to one of the owners for a couple minutes.  They have QR and Trek tri bikes in stock and the price points were pretty attractive.  (It made me think twice about my bike.)  They also have wetsuits in stock.  We don't see much of that around here.

Anyways, I wanted to give them a quick plug because I thought it was pretty cool they were making a run at this sport.  I also told Fidel that he should check out this site because its right up their demographic alley.  (So if you see this Fidel, give a shout out.

You know, I didn't really look at the clothing.  I stopped in to look at a tag-a-long for the kids, while the wife ordered me some ice cream at Cold Stone.  I had to get in and out quickly.

That reminds me, instead of just selling me on what they had, Fidel gave me an idea on how to help my daughter with her balance issues first.  I thought that was pretty cool.

Matt-
I live in the Port Hurom area and would definitely made the small "trek" to the Flint area for a look at a store like this. Are they in Flint proper? Can you give me a location?

Thanks!
