It’s been a few months since I’ve been on any downhill rides. So when Joe Solancho told me about a secret trail that he and Wes Castro rode a few weeks prior, I jumped on the opportunity. We met at the staging location and loaded up the bikes. We’re lucky enough that we could shuttle…
Month: June 2010
The KHS XC 604 (Medium) On Prisiclla’s old bike, we went with a Pink theme. Since this frame has lime green on it, we’ll be looking for parts and accessories with the same color.
I’ve always been an admirer of Lezyne (rhymes with “design”) products and was especially impressed when I saw their display during my first trip to Sea Otter a few years back. They design and manufacture bike accessories that can be used across all bicycle disciplines. They feature everything from mini pumps and hand pumps, racks…
Gemini-May 21- June 20 The forecast: The sun energizes your mojo, there’s no hill you can’t tackle. Work Mode: Your boss will ride you like a donkey. Make sure you tell him to “stop busting my balls, you’ll get your TPS reports once I’m done checking MtnBikeRiders.com!” Sex: Not getting any. Your wife will have…

That means Awnry Clothing will be “assembled in the USA.” The first item that will be produced will the be the Sucka Shirt. Awnry Sucka Shirts (A.S.S) are made with a high tech fabric…
Since summer is pretty much here, I’ve seen more and more snakes laying across the trail sun bathing. I swear every time I see them, I freak out! I scream like a little girl and Priscilla just shakes her head in shame when I do that. I guess some guys aren’t afraid of a little…
I was sitting back at my desk, looking out the window and day dreaming about coming out with cool clothing. Not just t-shirts silk screened with designs. But actual apparel that is not only useful for biking, but also cool enough to wear when you’re out and about. If you recall, we have this brand…
We’re very happy to announce that Mark Tomas is the newest member of the MtnBikeRiders.com Race Team. Some things about Mark. He has been riding for 2 1/2 years. He got into mountain biking after he broke his femur. The doctor said cycling would build his strength after surgery. Mark gave it a try, and…
