US Open of MTB

This past weekend, Team Mountain Cycle were at the US Open of Mountain Biking held at Diablo Freeride Park in Vernon, New Jersey.  Mountain Cycle displayed at this event with a prominent pit space on the corner of the pit area; right next to Giant-Michelin and behind e.thirteen.  We displayed with a 10′x10′ MC pop-up tent and showed off some of the new Shockwave frames.

In racing news, Mountain Cycle’s Ecuadorian racer Alejandro Ortiz won the Amateur Dual Slalom on board Jim D’s white prototype Battery bike.  In the downhill event, Alejandro qualified 5th on Saturday and placed 12th in the finals on Sunday.  His time would have qualified him for the Pro event.  Congrats to Alejandro!

In other event news, Mountain Cycle sponsored the event coverage on the popular Freecaster video site by providing food and lodging to the freecaster guys at the event.  You can see the Mountain Cycle logo on the below video.
