Maui Wowi at Bike Week in Laconia, NH!











WOW. Who would have ever guessed that Bikers love smoothies?!? We made the hour and half trip up to Weirs Beach in New Hampshire to sell our smoothies and coffees to the bikers for the week at Laconia Bike Week 2008. We spent 9 straight days there. What an experience! It was our first time at Bike Week and we were very curious to see how our product would sell to the Bikers. Make no mistake about it, Bikers Love smoothies! They also know gourmet coffee when they see it and would line up every morning for either an iced or hot Kona coffee straight from the "Big Island". The Mocha Chill sold out in 2 days!!

In addition, We met many, many great people up there whom we are sure to be friends with many years to come. We introduced them to smoothie paradise too, and they continued to comment that they couldn't believe something that tasted so good was also good for you! Mango Orange was by far our biggest seller for the week. Special Thanks goes out to the girls from Outback Leather seal too, who were very helpful to us in helping hand out samples as well as keeping us entertained for the week while they gave free motorcycle boot shines to all who passed by. Many bikers would stop by to get their boots conditioned, get smoothie sample and head on over to the K-Cart for a smoothie, based on the girl's reccommendations.










Another Big Mahalo goes out to "Chickie" from George's Gourmet Grill for not only keeping us fed all week long with his delicious gourmet steak tip sandwhiches, grilled chicken sandwiches, 1/4lb. hot dogs, and sausages; but also for having his son, Chris and his girlfriend Annie give us a hand with samples and set-up/take down every day. Some of the nicest people you will ever meet!! They can be found all over Boston as well, including at all the Boston Cannons Pro Lacrosse games at Harvard Stadium. Be sure to stop in and get a steak tip sandwich if you're there! Tell them Maui Wowi sent you!
