When I heard the final race in the Rock Shox Golden State series would be in Mammoth, I knew I just had to get there. Fortunately, so did the rest of the Mtnbikeriders team! Wednesday night I headed over to the Finch’s (Kim & Tony), loaded up the truck and took off at midnight. Plan…

One thing you’ll see with super fast downhill riders is that they pedal when ever they can. Quinton Spaulding LOVES to pedal. I’ve learned that when I have an opportunity to pedal, I should. It will deduct seconds away from your time if you’re racing. So if there a clear section or any place where…
It’s that time of year again, Interbike! This is one of my favorite bicycling events of the year. We’re pretty excited about the show and I am looking forward to all the buffets. So let us know if there is anything in particular you want us to check out!

Our trip to Mammoth started early Saturday morning. The Policars and my family caravanned from my house in Corona all the way to Mammoth. We had to get to Mammoth early enough for Priscilla to catch her XC race. After a long week at work, the long drive was certainly relaxing. At least six hours…

Below are the official dates for the upcoming 2009 Triple Crown Series in So Cal. As you recall, our Team did fairly well in 2008. Priscilla and Kim won the overall for their respective categories. I’m betting they’ll bring home new jerseys for 2009 🙂 2008 Triple Crown Series winner’s jersey I’m looking forward to…
