Price Point is pleased to announce that we are now official sponsors of the US Cup's Kenda Cup West and Triple Crown race series . The US Cup is now in its second season and is already the biggest pro and amateur mountain bike race series in the United States. Some of the biggest names in mountain bike racing participate in these events and it's a great chance for all of the aspiring locals to race alongside of them. There will be pro men racers like Jeremy Horgan-Kobelski, Sid Taberlay, Jeremiah Bishop, Tinker Juarez, Adam Craig and pro women expect to see Catharine Pendrel, Pua Sawiki, Allison Mann and many more.

Last week we were lucky to have 1/2 of Team Crank pay us a visit here in California. Markley Anderson was in town and looking to ride and we were happy to oblige. Team Crank is an elite endurance/adventure racing team sponsored by Price Point that consists of Markley and Paul Loete.
Their specialty is "go hard and go long". As you'll see below, Markley is a human dynamo, solid muscle, and just goes and goes. Milo of Price Point, the tall, lanky guy in one of the pictures, can do just fine on the usual 2 - 4 hour rides, but it's easy to picture Markley holding the same pace even in the wee hours of a 24-hour race or on day 4 or 5 of a tough multi-day stage race. They took some video on the ride as well. Markley plans to eventually post a compilation video on his team blog, chronicling this season's adventures. Team Crank has a very full schedule!
Speaking of multi-day stage races, Markley brought news that they will be possibly the ONLY U.S. team doing the TransAlp this year. If you haven't heard of this race, it is brutal: 7 days, over 65,000 feet of climbing and 482 miles of trail that snakes through the Alps of Germany, Austria and Italy. Check it out here. They did the BC Bike Race last year and hope to do La Ruta de Conquistadors soon. These guys are really active, and though we'll post their stories here every time we can, you may want to check them out on their own blog here.
We'd like to give a huge thanks to the Sette company who loaned us one of their amazing full carbon bikes for the ride. It was a great opportunity for Markley too. He has built up a custom Sette bike but has had little opportunity to ride it because of all the unusual snowfall that has been hitting his native Virginia. This ride has only whetted his appetite to get on his own new whip! Thanks Markley for the great ride, although Milo had to admit from that his perch on his all-mountain rig, it left him wondering, "Hey, where's my sub 19 pound carbon hardtail?" Hmmm...
