We Have a Winner for Our Free Marzocchi Giveaway!

Congratulations to Linda Y. of Glenwood, AR. She is the winner of our 2010 Marzocchi Corsa Micro Suspension Fork Giveaway! She's thrilled and should be receiving her fork soon. If you want to check out what she won, or get one for yourself, check it out here.

Show Yourself Some TLC and Check Out All of the New TLD!

We just got in some cool new gear from our friends over at the legendary Troy Lee Designs. Always known for having some of the coolest graphics, it is easy to lose sight of the fact that they pay very careful attention to the actual design of the product itself. Smart choices come from not only having the best of the best racers on your teams, but also by making a concerted effort to really hearing what they are trying to express to you when it comes to the features and functions they want from their gear.

The biggest part of their tradition is of course, their helmets. Check out these that are fresh in from TLD:
Pretty awesome stuff.


Troy Lee also has a long history of making gloves that can really take a beating and keep the skin on your hands. (Eew! Terrible to think about... but so true!) Check out these cool new mitts!
And among the grip of new gear we also got some amazing new shorts from TLD. Much of what they've made in the past has been for motor sports or for gravity sports like DH and Freeride. These new offerings are great for anything, including All-Mountain, XC and even commuting.


There's really just too many good things coming out of Troy Lee Designs right now. (Is that even possible?) Take a look at the whole line at Price Point. We have everything that you see and ready to ship, usually on the same day!

Marzocchi Fork Giveaway Ends Monday!

Just a little reminder, Price Point is holding a giveaway for a beautiful 2010 Marzocchi Corsa Micro Fork.There's no obligation, no surveys to take, and no purchase necessary.

We will be trying to contact the winner by Tuesday of next week. So get on it! Click here to register.

Price Point Sponsored Ride2Recovery Riders Complete 450-Mile Ride

Having ridden through mountain passes, into cold coastal winds and in the pouring rain, over 200 injured military veterans completed more than just another ride. In this case a 450-mile ride from San Francisco to Santa Monica (just west of LA), CA. Even though these folks had already proven themselves as survivors with tenacity and the grit of perseverance, it was still great to see them as they came to the finish, some on special bikes to accommodate amputated limbs and others  burdened with the mental scars of battle. Luckily they had nice sunny southern California weather when they rode in on last Saturday.

So, what exactly is the Ride2Recovery? Held in partnership with the Fitness Challenge Foundation, the R2R raises money to support Spinning Recovery Labs and outdoor cycling programs at military and Veterans Administration locations around the U.S. to help injured veterans overcome the obstacles the face.

Cycling is an important part of the recovery and rehabilitation program for two reasons:

1. Cycling is an activity that almost all patients with mental and physical disabilities can participate.
2. Participation in the Ride2Recovery Program helps speed up the recovery and rehabilitation process.

John Wordin, president and founder of Ride 2 Recovery, said he launched the program because of the benefits he knew former military officers would get from cycling. "Cycling is for anyone, anywhere, anytime," Wordin said. "It provides people with freedom and independence, which is something you lose when you're injured."

"This was a great way to end this amazing, challenging, inspiring ride," said Chatsworth resident Adam Volchok. Volchok, an Army medic who was stationed in Afghanistan from 2002 through 2003, was one of more than 200 injured military veterans who participated in the ride that took cyclists from the coast of San Francisco to Santa Monica in seven days. Volchok admitted the ride presented him with one of the biggest challenges he'd ever had, especially as he tried to make his way through the hills of Big Sur during a 93-mile leg of the ride. But the 30-year-old said as he neared the end of the ride, he felt like he could go for another 60 miles. "You just get this great feeling when you're riding with your fellow veterans, you're relaxing on your bike with the scenery ... everybody is talking and telling stories," Volchok said.

But it was also the camaraderie from bonding with fellow riders that most participants called the best part of the massive ride, which raises money for other Ride 2 Recovery programs to help wounded veterans. "There were so many points where I wanted to quit, but you see the person next to you or in front of you and they are pushing you, they are handing you water ... they don't let you quit," said Percy Banks, a Van Nuys resident and Navy veteran.

Cheering the riders on, and shielding them from highway traffic, were dozens of American Legion riders and United Services Organization volunteers who also made sure that all riders ate during scheduled breaks. "It just feels good to help these guys and girls who served our country," said Dave Avant, vice president for the American Legion riders chapter of Oxnard. "We're on our motorcycles, but these guys are pushing bikes ... but it's great to see these guys take this challenge the same way they took the challenge and served our country."

We at Price Point were more than happy to help out by outfitting a bunch of this crew with clothing for training and for the ride itself. Check out these pictures and you'll see them sporting the fine, and very affordable, kits that you can find exclusively from Price Point.

The Prettiest Wheels, Ever?

Take a look at what we got in stock last week, the 2010 Easton EC90 Aero Tubular Road Wheelset. If they're not the prettiest wheels ever, they are definitely in contention.

In addition to being one of the most aerodynamic wheelsets on the market, the EC 90 TT enjoys the distinct advantage of being the lightest 90mm wheelset on the planet which make running them a no brainer decision even for courses with a significant amount of climbing.

The aerodynamically proven R4 TT front hub uses 12 bladed Sapim spokes. The rear bumps the spoke count up to 16. Both connect to their respective rims via internal nipples to keep the surface area as slippery as possible. In a further nod to weight savings Easton employs what they call Variable Nipple Bed Technology which places carbon fiber precisely where it's needed to support spoke tension. The low spoke count keeps the weight down while keeping the wheels plenty stiff. Would you want to use them in a nine corner crit? Probably not, but anything else on the road is fair game.

The EC 90 TT is entirely hand built and is sonically tuned for exact spoke tension. Easton wheels have no weight limit and carry a two year warranty. For more details, click here.

Team Crank's Markley Anderson Finishes Out His Race Season with a 1st Place Win!

Team Crank's Markley Anderson finished out his 2010 racing season in fine form with a 1st place win at the 12 Hour Creek to Peak Mountain Bike Race in West Virginia. In the course of completing this race, Markley did just over 90 miles and over 9,000 feet of climbing. Although achieving many podium places during the entire season, a first place win had eluded him. That must have made this victory extra sweet. Check out the details on the Team Crank Blog.

Markley has had nothing but great thing to say about his Sette carbon hardtail mountain bike. It has taken him all over the eastern United States, to much of Europe during the TransAlp race, and delivered him safely home again without ever giving any signs of wanting to stop. You can check out the latest versions of Sette's bikes available through Price Point.

Team Crank also uses a ton of Sette tools and clothing to make sure everything stays in top race-ready condition. If you take a close look at the image that accompanies this story, you'll see a set of Sette Epic Shoes that have been with him through it all. Super stiff-soled, durable, and with plenty of breathability, these shoes make a great choice for racing, commuting or touring.

So congratulations to Markley and to Team Crank for a great season. Stay tuned, for 2011 there are plans for conquering the Tour Divide Race, the most epic race in the US, and maybe the world... after all, it stretches from Banff, Alberta Canada all the way to Antelope Wells, New Mexico. This is a one-stage 2745 mile/4418 km race that is totally self -supported. What does that mean? It means you're on your own. No mechanics, no sag wagons, no feed stops. Woah. Not for the faint of heart.
