Pinkbike is sending in a neutral support army of one for the next couple of years, and we are pleased to announce our partnership with BC based race and event support company
Loudenterprise. At the helm is Jason Louden, owner and operator of Loudenterprise, and he is heavily armed with a healthy dose of stoke. Equally fluent in both SRAM and Shimano, Louden can tear your bike apart and put it back together with ease, he'll even slip a laugh in here and there.
| It's great to come to the BC cup races and have a mechanic under the Pinkbike tent! Jay Louden is always super helpful, he's an awesome mechanic and is always smiling! - Keara Clark, BC Cup racer. |
| People should be able to head to the race venue with peace of mind, knowing support is available, and I want to make sure all participants enjoy their event weekend to the fullest. You can't make it to the podium if your bike isn't dialed! - Jason Louden |
| I'm stoked to have Jason Louden of Loudenterprise involved with my events again in 2013 - his bike knowledge, experience and outgoing personality are second to none. Loudenterprise has been involved with my events since 2009, and over 40% of the podium finishers have had their bikes fixed by Mr. Louden. Bringing Loudenterprise on board reinforces our ongoing commitment to hosting the best pure DH events of the summer. I would absolutely recommend Loudenterprise for your next event! - Stephen Exley, BC Cup Race Organizer |
We’ve also equipped the man from Charlesbourg, QC with two tents, a box of Pinkbike t-shirts and a bag of stickers for the local races. Loudenterprise also handles all trade show operations for PB, specifically Crankworx, The Sea Otter Classic and the Vancouver Bike Show.
| Jay is the ultimate road manager for the Pinkbike crew - he handles the logistics, the metrics and the booth staff. He'll also drive 2500 miles with 16 foot poles strapped to a pickup at the drop of a hat. - Julian Coffey, Pinkbike |
As an ambassador for Canfield Brother in BC, Louden will also be on hand to showcase the new 2013 Jedi at every event. Last year Loudenterprise travelled over 15,000 km's to attend 13 events, and repaired over 650 bikes.
Jason cut his tech support teeth attending races in Eastern Canada, specifically the Canada cup & QC Cup series in the early 2000s. He has since made it his passion to ensure local racing and mountain bike happenings are safe, accessible and fun as hell.
So look for the Pinkbike tent and come and say hi. Get your bike tuned and check out some PB swag while you’re at it. The Loudenterprise machine keeps running thanks to
Pinkbike,
Muc-Off,
Cycling BC,
Canfield Brothers,
Shimano and
SRAM.
Jason is also stoked to support the
Loudenterprise 2013 Race Team, comprised of 8 riders competing in nearly all categories.
