A recent flurry in buyer registration prompted Interbike show organizers to extend the deadline for free retail attendee registration. Retailers who register online before Aug. 26, will secure a complimentary badge to the September 12-16, Interbike Expo and Demo events in Las Vegas.


Buyer registration numbers for the annual cycling tradeshow are pacing ahead of this time last year, after two steady weeks of busier-than-normal registration activity. The extended deadline gives retailers two additional weeks to register for the show and avoid a registration fee of $35. Qualified retailers and other buyers can register for both events online at www.interbike.com/register.


Buyers who register on or before the original deadline, Aug. 15, will receive their badge and show materials in the mail. Badges submitted after that deadline will be available for pick up on site.


Attendees of Interbike 2011 will see the latest products from more than 750 exhibitors, representing more than 1,200 exhibiting brands. The most up-to-date Interbike exhibitor list is available at interbike.com/exhibitor-directory. Retailers will also benefit from updated OutDoor Demo amenities, returning Women's Lounge and inaugural Circulus velodrome.


Interbike (www.interbike.com) gathers more than 1,100 cycling-related brands and close to 23,000 total attendees annually.


The Interbike 2010 trade-only events begin with OutDoor Demo (September 20-21, 2010 in Boulder City), followed by the Interbike Expo, September 22-24 at the Sands Expo and Convention Center in Las Vegas.
