Show organizers respond to support for September dates and Las Vegas
For Immediate Release:
SAN JUAN CAPISTRANO, Calif. Oct. 12, 2010 In response to feedback to its announcement three weeks ago that it was moving the show to August in Anaheim for 2011, Interbike today announced the 2011 edition of the show will stay in Las Vegas and will be held September 12-16.
The announcement that we were moving the show dates and location elicited a very real response that surveys and discussions alone couldnt accomplish, said Andy Tompkins, Interbike show director. Due to the overwhelmingly positive response to this years show and the countless conversations weve personally had with exhibitors and retailers regarding the future dates and location of Interbike, we are reversing our earlier decision to move the 2011 show to Anaheim in August. We are hearing loud and clear that, at this time, the industry prefers September dates and the convenience of Las Vegas.
The indoor portion of the show will be held September 14-16 at the Sands Convention Center, with the OutDoor Demo being held in Bootleg Canyon September 12-13. The 2012 show also will be held at the Sands in Las Vegas September 19-21 with the Demo September 17-18.
The attention brought by news of moving the show to August allowed the entire industry to examine how it utilizes Interbike, what the show means to the marketplace, and helped solicit real and frank opinions from every sector of the industry. Based on this feedback and the success of Interbike 2010 (see press release), the show will move back to September in Las Vegas.
Interbike has always been and will continue to be the industrys show, continued Tompkins. We have heard the markets passion and commitment to this event and we want you to know that we are listening. We believe the new direction will best serve the current needs of the marketplace.

Ich denke ja, dieses Schnecken hier,
die in Las Vegas weil(t)en, waren wohl insgeheim der ausschlaggebende Grund
..., ich meine: Wer geht da schon gern fort?
Wer braucht schon die Interbike, wenn wir doch hier in Deutschland die Eurobike haben? Ganz ehrlich - unsere Hallen sind schöner, größer und besser und die Eurobike hat bisher immer früher stattgefunden.
und ich dachte schon.. 
das wort hatte ich schon total vergessen!
