All Mountain Cyclery moves into new home

Longtime local business All Mountain Cyclery has further cemented its place in Boulder City by moving into its new location on Nevada Highway. Jeff Frampton has owned the business since it opened in September 2004. Originally at 1404 Nevada Highway, All Mountain Cyclery’s new facility across the street at 1601 Nevada Highway has been a long time coming.

“We bought the land in 2007,” Frampton said. “The crash made it take longer to get in there.”

In the meantime, the store continued to operate in its smaller space.

The new facility is a brand-new building and gives All Mountain Cyclery 1,500 more square feet, as well as new computers and a new air delivery system. There is more room for its bicycles, equipment and accessories, as well as increased space for the mechanics to work.

“We just outgrew our spot over there,” Frampton said.

“We now have the staff, funding, etc. … to make the move. It seemingly just kind of happened,” he added.

The new store also echoes the quality of what is around it.

“We’re really here because Bootleg Canyon is here,” he said. “That’s why we’re in Boulder City. We have an amazing place to ride bikes, recreate and trail run.”

Monday morning, three new Boulder City police officers were sworn in during a ceremony that featured city staff, family and fellow officers.

Two more future officers will be attending the police academy next month. The new officers help fill vacancies left by retiring officers or those who have moved onto other agencies. Left, Mayor Joe Hardy gave the three new officers an impromptu group hug during the ceremony.

I’m about to say something that divides many in terms of their opinion. More than should a sandwich be cut horizontally or the diagonal cross-cut. Even more than the question of Coke vs. Pepsi and even more controversial than whether a tomato is a fruit or vegetable.

From Garden to Grave

Last week, the Christian Center Church hosted four showings of Garden to Grave: Live Stations of the Cross. Pastor Deborah Downs said the Stations of the Cross “are a contemplative practice of walking the way of suffering with Jesus. If one were to visit the city of Jerusalem, they would discover all 14 stations on what is called the Via Dolorosa – The Sorrowful Way – a path from Pilate’s court to Golgotha to the tomb.”
