Team focus for 2006 will be on the The Great Lakes MTB Triple Crown: Ore-to-Shore, Marquette, Michigan; Chequamegon 40, Cable, Wisconsin; and the Iceman Cometh, Traverse City, Michigan. The Michigna NORBA series promoted by www.tailwind.net will also be a priority for the MTB team. As well as top regional races, LumberJack and multiple hour endurance races to be target by team members.

Of course, we will also be at many other state, regional, national, and international mountain bike races.
