CORBA’s Annual Fat Tire Fest is set for October 12, 2008.

Bionicon is proud to support the ongoing advocacy work of CORBA, the Concerned Off-Road Bicyclists Assocation. Bionicon will be at the Fat Tire Fest, and will have a fleet of demo bikes available for test rides.

This is a family event with rides for everyone from beginner to experts. Win prizes in the legendary raffle, the poker ride, wheelie contest, hill-climb contest, log pull, or the silent auction.

CORBA, the Concerned Off-Road Bicyclist Association, an all volunteer-run non-profit, has been instrumental in gaining and maintaining access to Southern California trails for mountain bikers. This is their annual fundraising event, the proceeds of which go to fund their trailbuilding crew, their ongoing advocacy work and fight for new trails.

The Fat Tire Fest will be held October 12, 2008 at Castaic Lake.

Bionicon sponsors 2008 Keyesville Classic

The 2008 Keyesville Classic will feature cross country, down hill, and short track races over the course of the weekend. The signature event of the weekend, the Bionicon All Mountain Stage Race, combines the three events into a three-stage race, which encourages riders to test their all around strengths against other racers. During the All Mountain Stage Race, riders must use the same bike for all three events, with the exception of an allowed tire change for the downhill race stage.

The event will begin Friday March 14th at the Kernville Brewery with a showing of KLUNKERZ, at 6:00pm, and friendly atmosphere where event participants and attendees can mingle and celebrate the history of mountain biking. The public is invited to arrive early and enjoy the food and beer at the brewery, which opens at 1:00pm. Attendees will find vendors, food, live music Saturday, and great camping at the staging area. A Vintage Bike race and Trials competition are also planned, and are always crowd favorites.
