Team Update...Part I

We're a little late updating, but team rider Mike Stock has been up to a few things, including riding his bike down the side of mountains really fast, and not getting his mini-monster truck stuck out in the woods. Check him out:

"Hey Matt ok so since the snow has finally melted and the season is in full swing i am super pumped to get to the mountain every chance i can get. With the win with the Ghostship crew at the Hustle and Flow being an awesome opener to the season i was ready for the first real race of the season at Plattekill Mountain in NY.

I am racing Cat 1 (expert 19-29) again this year and it is off to a great start. I ended up 6Th outta 20 on my first race of the season, few seconds off the podium. I am feeling pretty good with my riding getting a lot more confident with every weekend at the mountain. My fitness isn't quite where i want it to be so i am doing a lot more trail riding to prep me for the races.

This summer I will be racing the Plattekill Series which is about one race a month, the US. OPEN at diablo on memorial day weekend. Along with riding a ton this summer and racing my family and I are planning a fun multi-day camping trip up north to get away and relax with everyone. Should be a great summer full of racing, riding and enjoying life!

Clearing Out Cobwebs....

Yikes...it's been a while. Sorry! There's been lots going on. Lots of shirt making, designing, stressing, riding, getting sick, like, really sick, then sickness-turning-into-infection kind of sickness, no riding, weddings, freelance work, busy season work, etc, etc, etc. But you don't care about all that. We just wanted to let you know why there's been a lapse in updates. So anyway....

It's raining like whoa here on the Right Coast....frankly, we're sick of it. If you can't beat 'em, get some fenders and a jacket, and get yer ride on! So as we get settled in the next week or so, we'll have some more stuff for you. New shirts, new designs, some team updates, more fun stuff! Promise. Stick around....

Best Trick Jam!

We've put together a Best Trick Jam for Friday May 15th in New Haven on the eve of Grand Theft Velo 3. The big idea is to get everyone out to cruise around together, do some tricks at a few different spots, win some prizes, have a few beverages, out-of-towners can learn the city a bit before the big race on Saturday, and generally get everyone together to have a great time riding bikes! We're tossing in a couple of prizes to get the weekend started. Oh yeah...NO ENTRY FEES! Check the flier:

Ghostship Best-Trick Jam

...is in process of organization at the moment. We're shooting for Friday evening prior to Grand Theft Velo 3 down in New Haven, sometime around 9:30ish. We're thinking a jam style format with the possibility of multiple locations, as well as plenty of spectating, and booze-cruise style amble between spots. Awards will probably take place at a local watering-hole. Details to follow!

Stock Up on Asskick'n!

Ghostship team rider Mike Stock took it to his competition this weekend up @ Plattekill. Mike finished 6th out of about 20 riders and was only a couple seconds off of a podium spot. Way to go Mike! Keep kill'n it!
