Budget Makeover, Take Two

Every year when the new bikes start to hit the marketplace and show up in magazines, I look at what each manufacturer has done to their bikes.

Every year when the new bikes start to hit the marketplace and show up in magazines, I look at what each manufacturer has done to their bikes. Some years you see completely new bikes and other years you see Bold New Graphics. Each time I see a new bike I like, I go out to my garden to see if my money tree is growing. I must be a horrible gardener or my kids like to raid the money tree. Either way, each year buying a new bike is out of my budget. Fortunately, I’ve been able to find quality used bikes to satisfy my addiction to single-track.

Manuela Jungo eyes a pro freestyle kitesurfing career

Manuela Jungo: smile, you're a pro kiter

Manuela Jungo is training hard for the upcoming 2012 PKRA World Tour. The freestyle kiteboarder from Switzerland decided to complete her studies and gain professional experience before preparing a pro kiteboarding career.

“The most professional kiteboarders start their career in early ages and they do their education on the side or later on but I did it the other way around”, explains Jungo.

“I studied and worked until last as Brand Manager for a Swiss luxury Watch Company, when I have decided to change my daily business routine to a peaceful, happy and active live on the beach”, she adds.

How To Ship Your Dirt Bike

Buying or selling your bike doesn’t have to be a local affair. With eBay, Craig’s List, Cycle Trader and all the dirt bike forums, you can search for bikes from one end of the map to the other. The trick, then, becomes getting bike to buyer and money to seller, but not necessarily in that order.

WMX Rider Insight: Jackie Ives

In only her second season as a professional Motocross racer, Jackie Ives is currently sitting in 16th position for the WMX point standings through the first four rounds of the 2010 AMA Woman’s Motocross Championship Series.

You might think ‘How cool is it to be racing professional motocross all over the USA!’ But it’s a lot harder and a lot more work than you might think! Not all racers get the big bucks and the factory rides like James Stewart, Ryan Dungey, and Chad Reed. As a matter of fact, most of the woman racers in the USA have to work quite hard during the week just to make it to the race track!

RRD launches new kite board for racing

K-Race 70 LTD: for kite racers only

Roberto Ricci Designs (RRD) has launched a new kite board specially designed for racing. The K-Race 70 LTD brings totally new parameters in the equation of functionality and efficiency and puts the stick a little higher when the wind is light.

“Planing with 6 knots of wind and reaching upwind speed of 12-14 knots and downwind speed of 25-27 knots is no longer a dream. We have worked very closely with the help of French rider Julien Kerneur, the current PKRA Racing ranking world leader, to develop both the K-Race 70 LTD and the Addiction MKIII kites to have an unbeatable combination of speed and control”, explains RRD.

The new race kite board uses every centimeter available of the board design to be used for maximizing the performance. Thick rails on the tail to improve lift on the fins, extreme tucked under edge on the front and mid section of the board to reduce friction over the chops and create an easier to ride shape.

Husqvarna pushes farther into the mid-sized off-road/dual purpose market with an all-new 2011 TE 310. Eleven pounds lighter than the previous 310 and using the smaller lighter 250F motor, now fuel-injected, is this a serious threat to KTM’s 350? Watch and decide!
