Interbike Superstars


One of the highlights of Interbike for me is meeting and greeting friends new and old in the industry. We also can get a little star struck every now and then. RL is a HUGE Melissa Buhl fan. Melissa Buhl IS super cool but I get a little star struck when I see Dale Holmes. After I stalked him for two days, Joe finally asked Dale if he’d take a picture with me. Thanks Joe! ;) He was kind enough to pose with me for a quick shot. I was too weak in the knees to say anything other then “Thank you.” *I am such a dork*


Note to self: When posing with World Champions, remove your backpack and put down the magazine!!

Dale Holmes is a UCI WORLD Champion with over 200 career professional wins!!! He is also a mountain cross rider for KHS. This guy has been racing since 82, and he is uber cool. My admiration is based strictly on his mad biking skills and his tattoos. lol.

His interests: Any Sports,working on the Free Agent World Team, hanging out with friends, Starbucks, working on his website DaleHolmes.com.

Ok. Ok. I’ll stop. :)

Also a little early “Happy Birthday” shot out to Mr. Holmes…… :)

Interbike 2008


Hi everyone,

Sorry for the delay in posting things about the show. We’ve had meetings galore on Wednesday so that didn’t leave much time for us to sit down and post about the show.

But don’t worry we’ve taken a few hundred photos and a some HD quality video of things like the Crank Brothers new wheelset, the Pronghorn “ride on top” carbon bikes and a boat load of other things.

We’ll be spending more time today interviewing, creating videos as well as taking a few hundred more photos.

Going to Interbike!


Just last week, the MtnBikeRiders crew received our registration packets to attend Interbike. This will be Joe Solancho’s first time to the show, so to say the least, he’s VERY excited.

I am too. I love Interbike. Sure the new stuff is cool to see, but what I truly enjoy about the show is the After Show, the BUFFETS! Last year, we went out as a crew to eat some grub…crab legs, sushi, steaks…you name it…we ate it.

This year we’re doing something different. We’ll be incorporating the use an HD camera to conduct interviews, product features and all that fancy stuff.

So make sure you check out the site during the show on Sept 24-26th, 2008.

Countdown to Interbike 2008


Interbike is happening on Sept 24-26, 2008. That’s pretty much right around the corner. If you remember last year’s Interbike coverage, we had a blast bringing you some of the newest and greatest products out there. But at the same time we went as regular folks. We still oooh and ahhh at some of the best things at Interbike, and yes we’re like teenage girls when it comes to mountain biking celebs!

We look forward to this year since we’ll have a bigger staff going for more coverage. We had our condo booked a few months ago, so that mean’s all we have to do is drive there!

Interbike to Stay in Vegas


After months of conducting studies, polling people, researching different offers from different cities and sitting around twiddling their thumbs, Interbike has sadly decided to stay in Las Vegas.

Here is the info via B.R.A.I.N.:

After two years of collecting potential host city data and retailer, manufacturer and industry partner feedback, Interbike management has announced the trade show will remain in Las Vegas, and that they are currently finalizing an agreement with the Sands Expo and Convention Center to host the industry’s show for a minimum of three more years, beginning with the 2010 show.

“The decision to keep the Interbike show in Vegas comes after years of research and communication with our retailer attendees, exhibiting manufacturers and important industry partners,” said Lance Camisasca, Interbike’s industry consultant. “The data and communication we have collected, along with industry recommendations from organizations like the National Bicycle Dealers Association (NBDA) and Bikes Belong, confirm our decision to keep the show in Las Vegas.”
