 Last weekend the SBF crew rode their local spot in PV with 2004 MTX World Champion and Team Mongoose's Eric Carter. Eric was on hand with his personal quiver of racing machines including his two new signature bikes, the ECD and ECX, as well as the hardtail he rode in the Red Bull Road Rage. The SBF team and guests had the opportunity to try out each of the bikes on their native terran with Eric to assist in tuning the bike to suit their size and style.
All of the riders responded with very positive feedback finding both bikes to be incredibly agile and responsive, especially the ECD with its extremely light weight. After a few hours of riding together, Eric let the gang go off to try out the bikes on their own. Later, everyone met up top for barbeque and time talk to EC about the bikes and riding in general.
SBF always has a great time riding together, but we were especiallly pleased and appreciative to have Eric Carter come out and share his equipment and passion for the sport of mountain bike racing with us. With that, we would like to thank Eric for coming out. We had a blast.

The majority of the terrain of the first XC singletrack they are building is on a gentle grassy slope and will require very little benching and no brushing. Trail designers Eron Boyer and Jason Sladeck have laid out two new singletracks that really flow and will be fun to ride both up and down.
