I need racers/riders!!! Yeti Cycles Grass Roots Racing Squad for 2008 season!

So here is the scoop:
Yeti gave me the green light so I will be putting together a Grass Roots squad of racers for the upcoming 2008 season!
We will focus on the 12 Hour Endurance series, Sea Otter, Rim Nordic Series and possibly the Adrenaline Series at Hurkey Creek also.

Yeti will offer each racer a complete bike at Pro/EP form, Racing Kit and causal wear all at a substantial discount!

The deal I made with Yeti is simple, we adhere to the mission statement I proposed:
"My goal/mission statement for the team would be to promote the sport of mountain biking, overall health and wellness and a positive and individual competitive attitude.
The expectations of the team members are that at each event they are committed to promoting the sport of mountain biking, their team and its sponsors in a positive manner!"

I am looking for all levels of racers and a commitment to attend a weekly training ride, helping with trail maintenance on "our" training loop- not sure what trail yet-race a minimun of 5 events, support the squad at events, go to Sea Otter as a squad, attend the Yeti Tribe meeting in Colorado next summer and essentially represent southern California!

This is a huge opportunity and for those of you that have considered racing, now is the time and for those of you still rolling privateer, come on over!!

There are a lot of details to go over so essentially I first want to see if anyone is interested and then go from there!

Come on folks, I need your help:bang:!
gracias,
Neil

 

Sign me up!

 

do you have to like turtles?

 

Sounds pretty cool to me. Let's hear the details.

 

::looks around::

 

I'd be interested Neil, plus I like turtles!

Now Neil, are you going to make the potentiall racers clean Mustard Hill in the BIG RING like you??!

 

Me too, I wanna ride! I wanna ride!! Can we include the VQ?
And, you did say ALL levels, right? Turtle is a level, isn't it?

 

Neil - your only problem now is going to be paring down the applications :lol:

 

Can I try your training ride first before I have my agent contact you?

 

I'm in.

 

I think you'll have to retire your Motiv for a Yeti, though.

#-o

 

That sounds great, but then I'd have to buy a new bike.

 

No Experience needed? I just started mountain biking this year but I'm interested.

 

Where do I sign...

((((Grabbing Pen)))

 

the first test is you have to be able to ride your bike up a curb

 

hMMmmM:-k

 

Jose - Yeti DOES NOT MAKE A 29 inch bike...#-o

 

Maybe you can rattle can your bike all teal to match the Yeti race colors.

 

Neil,
It looks like you've created a great opportunity and an incentive to race. This opportunity is far beyond what I've seen offered by any other shop in the area.

However, I do have a complaint (don't I always?): There is no mention of DH or 4X. Isn't that a major part of Yeti's race efforts? No love for us non-leg shavers?

 

thats why I was doing the HMMMmm thing:lol:




dont worry I aint trying to get into your thingy!!!
