 In case people don't know, TruckerCo make aftermarket brake pads. IMHO every bit as good as OEM pads. Plus, Greg gives awesome customer service.

 I've been replacing OEM with them for years on all my Formula or Shimano brakes. His customer service rips and the pads are great. He needs to make some damn Hope V4 replacements though, dunno why that hasn't come about, I want!

 Tried one of their tubeless kits- saved my day of lift riding! Worked great with my non-tubeless everything.

 I'm with you.... I think they do a cool job and I want to be supportive but it needs to be enduro for me to get a longer race run etc.... I have a wife and kids, taking off and utilizing the shuttle service isn't realistic for me...... That being said mike is a good dude and these events are really cool.

 Jared, we had approximately 175 in the DH, 110 in the SD and another 60, or so in the DS. The series is growing and we expect and are preparing for bigger numbers in the future. Kind of like a big party with like minded folks. Please join us if you can.

 With over 40 events attended last year and just as many on my calendar this year, I can say this event is very well ran. You will get the typical delays in timing and results posting etc that you would with any other MTB event, because there is no such thing as a perfect system. The trails are gnarly, I would say some of the hardest DH sections I have ever seen. The Super D course is as fun as they get. I didn't pay much attention to the DS event. I don't think the Vendor Village is exceptional, but the products that were showcased during round 1 were some of my favorites. The YT Capra is now on my short list because of my interaction with the rep at the round 1 event. The weather was mint. The atmosphere was good and the town of Boulder City, has great character. I give the whole experience an 8 out of 10.
