List past racing accomplishments in any sport you’ve competed in James marked “none” for this, but we think differently.  He’s competed in more mountain bike races than all of us put together!  He’s also a great example for us younger, less seasoned guys and gals on the team.  He’s our Gandolf!
What is your first memory of riding a bicycle? as a kid in East Dallas. I was the nerd who rode his bike to school.
Why do you ride a bicycle? I’m still a nerd.
What does Bearded Women mean to you? A great bunch of guys that I like to hang out with.

Beard Head

beardheadOne of our most fun sponsors, we’ve already delighted in wearing these unique garments in early Texas spring and now during the heat of the summer.  We don’t care, you dig?  Get your Beard Head on!beardhead_01

The Beard Head was first conceived on the snowy mountaintops of Lake Tahoe on a ski trip in 2006.  In 2007, Beard Head, Inc. was born!

Beard Head knit beard caps combine the comfort and warmth of a traditional knit cap with the amazing styling of having a massive beard and moustache growing on your face! What person could pass up the incredible opportunity to sport his or her very own beard! We know we couldn’t!  They are perfect for skiers, snowboarders, sports fans and people who enjoy all types of outdoor activities!

The unique design of the Beard Head allows your entire face to remain warm, even in the harshest weather. Your chin, cheeks and upper lips will thank you as the Beard Head keeps them toasty warm!

It’s a GO!
Let’s make this the best trail day ever! Racers you need your pay dirt, so come on.

With the help of our lovely Elva Esparza and her love for DORBA, Progressive Insurance wants to help DORBA out at one of our trails. 🙂

Progressive will have 20+ helpers with us and will be providing lunch (food and drinks) for all volunteers.

Please come join hands with Progressive in helping our trails be that much more awesome. Bring gloves and any loppers or trimmers that you might have, eye protection and dress appropriately (you might want to wear light long sleeves or pants for the overgrowth scrapes)
We will be trimming back the spring growth to keep the trail safe and enjoyable for all.

ALSO-there will be a fun ride from 2-4pm, the Progressive crew has been encouraged to bring bikes and helmets to be introduced into the fun that is mt biking 🙂 RSVP Here!
