Goodie but oldie, should I get it used or brand new? As I gather parts for my frame build up I continually have to address the question: should I buy used or should I buy new? Unless you have an unlimited budget I’m sure you’ve probably asked yourself the same question. Much of this answer…

There’s something about riding DH that get’s Priscilla to pay more attention to me. I’ve benefited from having her wow at my awesome-tastic DH skills and the occasional podium makes it even sweeter. So if you feel like you need to turn up the heat in your relationship, give DH riding a shot. You don’t…
Team Rider David Sanderson lost a Super Bowl bet to Tony Finch. Basically if Tony’s team won the game, then David would have to race DH at Fontana. Fast forward to Valentine’s Day. Moe, David and I set out for the race venue, Southridge in Fontana. As you know we’ve spent quite a bit of…
It seems that some of you enjoyed our “Lighter side of Racing” post, so here’s part DOS. Has anyone seen my contact lens???? Hey Joe, how big is it??? “Yes Mr. Team Manager, I’m listening…” “Mmmm I can smell the first place podium all the way from here” It looks like someone needs to polish…
An email… innocent enough, sent me on a chase. The email: 2008 XTR Brakes, and a link. Tim Scissors knew I was building up a frame and needed parts so when he saw the XTR brakes he immediately emailed it to me. When I got the email I went directly to the website. I read…
RL Policar-Eric “The Animal” Hunner is the team’s power house. Not to take anything away from the other riders, but we all would agree that Eric has to be one of, if not, the strongest rider we have in our arsenal. So it brings me great pleasure to present to you a short, but sweet…

As you may have already read, the team did pretty well this past weekend. I wanted to fill in some gaps from our team’s performance as well as experiences during the races. Saturday we were greeted with a sweet kiss from some rare SoCal rain. Rain here would be as rare as seeing a Vegan…
We are finished with the third race in the SRC winter series! The weather was cold and wet both Saturday & Sunday. I chose to run the Super D race and the Downhill race this week and let the XC race to Priscilla, David & Eric. Saturday morning we headed up to the top for…
Sunday morning I left my home at 6am to hopefully get a few practice runs in before race time. During my practice, I took it pretty easy since it started to rain. You’ll even see drops on the lens. Anyhow, watch it and you’ll what kind of stuff we had to deal with. Southridge Winter…
