Hey Jim!

Well, let me see... I'm looking at your site while I type so these will just be "off the top of my head" with no criticism intended of your current design, all right?

If you are concerned with scrolling, that would mean thinking "horizontal" rather than "vertical"... you could try reducing the size of your images and maybe reduce the number that are on the main page. As an example, when I click "tshirts," I see some of the same photos that I saw on the homepage. Maybe the homepage could highlight the links to your ordering pages, with only one or two sample photos apiece. That would tighten up your merchandise area and have the three categories closer together (i.e., less scrolling).

(Are you going to be writing more articles on your oil-free theme? If so, you could even try columns... maybe, one for your merchandise, one for your general/bicycle/interest links and one for your writing. This could keep your merch information fixed, in a sidebar and always in your potential customer's view, with just your written content "scrolling.")

Not sure this helps but just some ideas Keep up your good work!
