Visited Supergo on Thursday (first day of business, not the "grand opening"). I spoke to the sales manager Keith who reported the deliberate unannounced arrival into Mountain View. Followed by the mention of a grand opening for the MV location (When? Few weeks, few months... he wouldn't say. But, watch carefully for the grand opening as I anticipate the MV location will have clearance items for sale.)

Other info:
- Largest Supergo Bike Shop (according to Keith, MV location is about 300 sq ft. larger than Ventura location.)
- The Supergo website calls the company "America's Largest Cycling Superstores - Home of Hi-Tech, Lo-Price".
- My guess is Supergo has more bikes in stock, on display than The Off Ramp, Bicycle Outfitter, and Bicycle Connection combined.
- Supergo is always taking applications for hire. (Note: This is done by many many many retail stores, not just Supergo, not just bike shops. The store will take your app., file it away. Don't expect to be hired immediately. Shops like Supergo hire seasonal workers and part time workers as a way to keep costs low *expect minimum wage pay*. They may call someone from a pool of qualified applicants when in need of an employee. They are always looking for seasonal workers, especially at end of the year Thanksgiving-Christmas shopping season).

yeah i went through there on friday and the place was JUMPING. people were all over the place. there was TONS of employees workin also. I even bought a few lil parts and pieces and asked about a few other things and theys aid that they havent had their grand opening yet so things are on their way. But when I asked about help with what parts to get, the employees didnt kno that much, they had to go back into the services department to check and see if they had what i wanted and that kind of stuff. they had a TON of demo 9's and sgs bikes and tons of dh bikes. even a HUGE fork selection. I dont know maybe i am just used to our old shops like off ramp and stuff but this shop just seemed HELLA sick the second i walked in there. makes off ramp and the outfitter look like ****.

[konabiker7]
