Interbike booth number: Sparkys booth, I don't know the number yet.

-Have you decided to be part of the BMX zone this year and why? We will be with everyone else in the BMX zone, I think for the rest of the cycling industry to take BMX seriously it is important the BMX brands are all together. Someone new to it all can easily check out BMX just by walking through the BMX zone.

-What new products are you bringing to Las Vegas that people need to check out? We have a lot of stuff this year; The new Cosmotron and Loosefer frames, v2 glam bars, Randy Taylor new sig grip,

the Indian Gripper. The Cock pit seats and our new clothing range. It's always great to show off what you have been working on for the last 12 months.

-Any special activities going on at the booth during the show? Outside the booth we are going to have a video loop going. We will be showing some new footage from our NW trip that went down in July so stop by and come see us.

-How many people are going to help out in your booth during the show? Joe Simon and I will be there to meet with everyone for Mutiny. The Sparkys crew will be holding it down too.

-Are you actually taking orders at the show or is it more to show products to the dealers and get contacts? Dealers can talk with the Sparkys guys on ordering and pre-booking the new stuff. Joe and I are there to meet people and show off the new goodies.

-Are any of your riders coming to Interbike? Morgan Wade and Johnny Stevens will be attending. The rest have school and I don't think Las Vegas is ready for Justin Simpson.

-Would you think a contest at Interbike would be a good idea since loads of people (industry/riders/media) are there already? I think it would be fun, the one they had at the Hardrock a few years ago was a blast.

-What party are you looking forward to? I'm trying to stay clear of the party scene this year. Nora cup will be a blast I'm sure.

-What would make the 2008 edition of Interbike a success for you? Last year the show was awesome, we met a ton of new people and it was nice to finally meet and talk to people we speak to daily on the phone/internet. So more of that would be rad. If we can not get anything stolen this year from the booth that would be awesome too.
