Great ideas for Father's Day

Devolder rocks his SL2 to victory in the Tour of Flanders

Everyone knows someone who needs a new bike - how about your DAD!  With fathers day just around the corner at the Riders Club we've been thinking of great ways to get our dad to Ride More; More Often.  Of course great rides are a good way to ride more - and getting a new ride makes it even more fun.

I talked to the people in the know here at Specialized to see what Dads are asking for this year and here's a sampling of some great ideas to get Dad moving in style this year!

Tarmac SL2 - I mean what more is there to say about this bike?  Your dad might not win the Tour of Flanders... be with this bike he could dream about it. Not only can you get him the bike the pros ride, but here's a cool Flanders T-shirt to go with it!

Roubaix Comp - Maybe your dad is more of an all day in the saddle kind of guy.  Well here's a bike that's got comfort on the mind!  This bike is designed to keep your dad fit but also add a dash of performance to his ride.  Get out and stay out - that's what a Roubaix rider is all about.

Stumpjumper FSR Elite - Time to get your dad a bit dirty!  OK more like get your dad on some dirt!  The Stumpjumper is all about mountain biking!  The completely redesigned Stumjumper FSR chassis features an ultra-refined and focused design, one that's been completely integrated with critical suspension components.

But since Dads are still guys - they love getting new toys of all sizes. If your dad already loves his bike - how about an upgrade to get him more excited about riding!  Here's some of the things we've been riding here at Riders Club recently.

Propero Helmet - Keep you dad around for a while longer with a new safe helmet.  The Propero offers all the security and ventilation necessary in a race-inspired helmet.

Pro Carbon Mountain Shoe - Everyone loves new shoes.  And new mountain bike shoes are a great way to kick it into summer.  For this year our Pro Mountain shoe has a carbon sole, BG Fit technology and a micro adjusting M-Lock buckle.

Phenon Saddle - Feet are important, but so's the rest of the body! We work with the best in the business to make sure our saddles are designed with your comfort in mind.  Our Phenon saddle family is designed to be the most comfortable mountain bike saddle we've ever made. Tested by World Champions like Conrad Stoltz we're sure your Dad will agree!

My dad isn't so hardcore so I got him an Expedition Elite. That's what he picked out and he loves it.
