This past weekend was the Final round of the Shimano Winter Series. Although I havn’t been participating in this series, I made it out for the final race. Its been a few months now since the last race I did. The weather was forcasted to be warm. I wasn’t looking forward to doing the normal…
This past weekend the Downhill Department of the MtnBikeRiders.com Race team was in attendance for race # 4 of the Shimano Winter Series hosted at Southridge, Ca. (phew, that was a mouthful).

Rather than sporting my 2011 jersey that looks pretty fly, I opted for my one of a kind MtnBikeRiders.com Tuxedo Jersey.…
My first race of season is behind me. Two words: crash and burn. Everything started going dowhnill (pun intended) since Friday before the race. I still had to swap cranksets on my SuperD Machine, the KHS AM200, and it was cold and dark outside. I took care of swapping the crankset and it occurred to…
The first race of the year and the beginning of the Southridge Winter Series started this weekend in Fontana, CA. I was lucky enough to double-check the weather the night before which showed high temperatures for the day in the high 50’s. It was not going to be a warm day by California standards. I…
