Little in the way of details just yet, but I wanted to announce that I’ve officially been named to the GT Bicycles Dirt Coalition for the 2009 racing season. I’m totally stoked as the GT lineup is really solid and I can’t wait to hop aboard my Marathon Carbon and hammer on it.

I’m also happy to announce sponsorship from Bejum Budder (which I unfortunately forgot to grab on my way out the door to last week’s Counting Coup–and paid dearly for it). I use BB because it works (most importantly) and it’s not a messy grease ball on your chamois. Oh yeah, and they don’t f’ with the animals when they test the products.

Finally, Motor Tabs has stepped up and agreed to sponsorship. I love (LOVE) Motor Tabs for a couple of reasons. I ride with a few different drinks depending on what I’m up to. This includes FRS, Infinit Nutrition and plain old H2O. Motor Tabs has the best flavor and convenience of them all. (Arguably each serves a different purpose and that’s why all 3 are in my cabinet.) You can’t beat the fruit punch flavored Motor Tabs. Just drop it in the bottle, wait a few seconds and it’s ready to drink. No messy powder all over the place. No big packaging. No inhaling maltodextrin dust.

So a big (BIG) thanks to everyone for making my 2009 a season where I can concentrate on being a good representative of the companies that have sponsored me and ride. I look forward to seeing them and anyone interested in hearing more on the trails.
