Evomo Rider Profile: Jason Hughen
by Bryan on August 30th, 2007
Something you dont hear or read much about are the riders who are married, have kids and are just as competitive as the twenty-something kids. The kids like Shea Jordan and Jami Pellegrino are the guys you typical hear about hitting it big and parting it up.
On the flip side is a guy like Jay Hughen who competes in Observed Trials (also know as bike trials or just trials). Personally, I dont understand how these guys pull this stuff off. If you have not ever seen trials, you need to. These guys can pretty much move their bike from one location to another with out ever putting a foot on the ground or actually…

Evomo Rider Profile: Shea Jordan
by Bryan on August 27th, 2007
We recently hung out with Shea Jordan, Downhill rider for Evomo, and he gave us the scoop on Argentina, dirt jumping and hanging with the Evomo bros. Shea first got into mountain biking only 4 years ago when he was living in Vermont. Then he just used a bike to get back and fourth to town and little by little he started to get into it more and thats when he fell in love with the sport.

Turner Test Ride
by Brandon Bittorf on August 21st, 2007
I wanted to drop a quick blog about our new Turner. I went out on a 25 mile test ride and all I have to say it is the best bike I have ever ridden. Being pretty new to the sport of mountain biking I have never ridden a 22lb full suspension bike that is truly a bullet. My bike is fully supported by some really terrific sponsors. Let me start with of course, we all know are killer frames are right here in our back yards of SOCAL, Turner Bikes and the wheels are so smooth, fast and stealth from stans no tubes. Tires I just can not stop talking about that smb8 (tubless) on the rear and the Blue groove(tubeless) that I run on the front, directly from John Tomac over at Kenda, man that…
Evomo Team Bike Build-Fest
by Bryan on August 20th, 2007
Well this last Sunday didn’t include a regular ride. Why you ask? Well for a few reasons.
A) It was hot… not Jessica Alba hot - think hot like 95 degrees and dry SoCal HOT.
B) We had to go help Walker have a girl-on-bike bachelor party (well, we didnt make it to Durango, but we were there in spirit). Congrats Walker!
C) We spent the day building some sweet new team bikes from Turner.
