Thank you to all who donated to Kent and Katie's fundraising effort
Thank you to all who donated to Kent and Katie's fundraising effort in the upcoming Ride4Yellow event happening in Steamboat Springs next weekend! We exceeded our goal of $1000 with your help! We are excited to ride with Lance Armstrong at this event and we welcome him to our town for the weekend of festivities. It will definitely be exciting!
For anyone still interested in helping raise money for our local cancer facility our long-time employee Bo Randolph and our pro racer, Tammy Jacques-Grewal (yes, the Tammy Jacques, back into racing and faster than ever!) both still need to raise funds to be able to join the ride. Each rider must raise $500 to participate, and they both bravely signed up hoping to be able to join in the effort and help out our local health care community!

Kent Eriksen in the news: Pipeline full at Eriksen Cycles
The worst economic downturn in nearly 80 years hasn’t slowed demand for Kent Eriksen’s $3,000 custom titanium bicycle frames.
“So here we are in this recession and I’m surprised at how busy we are,” Eriksen said Friday. “We can make 150 bikes a year so we need to get three orders a week and right now we’re seeing five orders a week.”

24 Hours of Moab riders on Eriksen frames
At least two of our customers raced the 24 hours of Moab on their custom Kent Eriksen Frames. David Bach of Boulder, Colorado rode his single speed 29'er, delivered in the nic of time in the Men's Pro Solo class.
Tiziano Gorton from Carbondale, Colorado cruised to a first place finish with his custom Eriksen full suspension frame (26" wheels, yeti rear end) in the Sport Mens Class. In fact, his team was 18th overall out of 356 teams! Tziano reported he had "no pain, no fatigue during or after the event" He noted this was quite a difference from his race and bike performance compared to last year. Great Job Tziano and team!

Rider completes PBP on Kent Eriksen made Hampsten designed bike
"Just a note to let you know I’m back from PBP. You may have heard but if not, let me say it was brutal this year. Lots of rain, some very heavy rain, and serious wind. You know, sort of like a March ride here in our neck of the woods.”
