  Weather Delay due to winds and storm forecast.  Nothing is being set until after 10:30 to see if this storm may or may not develop as well as what wind speeds will be.   As seems to be the norm winds are being pushed with this storm.  At the OIB pier (see pics) winds…

Hi, As is typical at the beach, a forecast storm is in works for between 10 to 12 noon today.  In addition to higher winds this afternoon.  While we are setting up on time this morning the umbrellas will be left in the ‘down’ position today.  If you raise your umbrella then do so carefully…

Hi Folks, Sorry, but there will be no setups today due to the forecast of Heavy Sporadic Showers/thunderstorms as the morning progresses.  We hope the weatherman get’s it right because if they’re wrong then we’re wrong.  That being said, we have to err on the side of caution as we don’t want our equipment to…

NOTE:  Weather forecast today is for sporadic light showers, rain typically isn’t an issue, however the more concerning part is the high winds forecast.  Our insurance company outlines ‘for us’ as how to mitigate risks of high winds with beach umbrellas and this is outline on Terms & Conditions so customers know what to potentially…

Let’s get right to it.  We have refurbished all of our bikes.  New grips on the handlebars, new tires (be ready for alot of yellow, lol), new chains, wheels (where needed) and new crank-sets and center-bearings where needed.  All of these bikes can go to either Sunset or OIB.  OIB however is getting all new…

Hi Folks.  Every year we buy substantial amounts of new products, ranging from chairs, umbrellas, grills, etc.  This year, the tariff’s have finally hit and boy are they spanking us financially on every level.  Our prices have increased a few dollars here and there where necessary.  I do want to touch on a few things…
