Eleven are chosen
We sent an email out to the chosen riders last week but with events and travel I haven’t managed to get the info on the site until now. The riders below will be vying for a spot on our team and a prize pack that includes a Specialized SX Trail, with Fox Forx and a Fox rear shock, Magura Brakes, Syncros tires, hubs, rims, pedals, stem, bars, seatpost, saddle grips and chainguide, a SRAM drivetrain along with Race Face Diabolus cranks.
Syncros, Magura and SRAM gear for the AIRprentice bikes.
The winner will also receive a similarly equipped Specialized P3 hardtail. On top of that the winner will be sporting Adidas goggles and sunglasses, Dakine gloves and hydration pack and if the rider doesn’t yet have a Whistler season pass the good folks at Intrawest will toss one of those in as well.
Some Adidas Eyewear to keep you going in the right direction.
Specialized will sweeten the pot with $500 for the winner to help get to events – and maybe buy some beer. If you are lucky you may even get a ride in the team Toyota. If you get hungry you’ll also have $200 in Denny’s money to spend on Grand Slam breakfasts. All in all it’s a pretty sick prize pack – and we’ll be giving it away this Sunday..
Gloves, soft goods, a hydration pack and a sweet gear bag from Dakine.
Here are the 2007 contestants in no particular order.
