For the Ladies


RL brought home the ladies’ jerseys and tees today!!! Check em out!

RL wasn’t able to get the same black bordering as the boys jerseys but I think they still look pretty sweet!

Loving the lettering on the back. Now when I pass those boys up on the climbs they know who they’re messin’ with. Hehehe. ;D

Here is the tee for the girls. We have a limited supply for the ladies so if you want one make sure you let us know asap. :) RL should have pricing up soon.

This is a form fitting tee. It is very generous in length with a scoop neck collar. Oh wait, I am not doing a review here… Lets just say I like it. :)

Interbike 2008: Turner bikes now with DW link


Turner bikes sports new linkage…DW link.  One of the buzz I heard frequently at Interbike is how well the new Turner bikes rode.  MtnBikeRiders didn’t make it to the dirt demo however I ran into several LBS mechanics as well as other acquaintances in the industry at the show.  They raved about the new partnership (Turner & DW) and the difference from the previous models.  Hopefully we’ll have a chance to ride it soon so we can experience the buzz.  Here are some pictures of their new bikes.  Same models with the new linkage.

Interbike 2008: Joe Solancho-Professional Action Sports Photographer


If you all didn’t know, Joe “mamma jamma” Solancho was our photographer for Interbike 2008. I’ve seen Joe’s pro work on his website JS3Images and he’s got a pretty impressive resume. He’s shot photos for Nathan Rennie, Brian Lopes and many more.

If you’ve seen our Flickr gallery, then you’ll see the quality work he does. Before the show, I had bought some new aviator glasses since I had lost my last pair. This time I wanted to add some flair to my aviators, rather than getting the gold frame and dark lenses, I went with silver frames and silver lenses. At the show we were hanging out at the Media Center and I had asked Joe if he does portraits, he confidently said, “(expletive)…Please!”

So here are my exclusive JS3Images Photoshoot in Vegas….

Heck he even took one of Moe…

Joe has some style…one of my favorite photos he took was of the Niner WFO.

So if you’re interested in having Joe snap photos of you send your requests to info@mtnbikeriders.com

The Moe did it….


It seems that I’m part of the reason why Greg LeMond hijacked Lance Armstrong’s press conference at Interbike.

Interbike 2008: KHS Bicycles



KHS XC Team

For the most part, the existing KHS Mountain bikes didn’t change much. The XC Team gets new colors, a Rock Shox SID and XO parts.

The biggest change, in my opinion, is the KHS Alite Team:

Yes fellas, the new Alite Team is an all carbon Monocoque frame!

KHS will also introduce the Velvet (Green Frame), the Lucky 7’s little brother:

also making its debut, the XCT 525 (yellow frame):

We are currently working on bringing you some cool interviews with Vince Calvillo, ‘Big Country’ and Melissa Buhl. Stay tuned and come back often, we are just getting started!!!
