To be sponsored (and get stuff for free) you have to be very good. Being sponsored is a good thing, but it doesn't come easy. It may happen eventually for you, but only time will tell as you progress. If you wan't better bikes and parts, you might be better off just getting a job and buying whatever you want. Biking is *that* expensive.

Mtnbrider, do what you want and ignore what these nay-saying dizzy bastards pipe your way. Maybe each of you drop some coin and get like riding gear so you can start by looking like a team. Once you guys get good and get sponsorships, you guys should think about running same/similar bikes. That way if one of you gets into a mechanical and the others can help out either w/ parts off their bikes or spares for the team. If you guys don't get sponsored, keep in mind what Sherpa said and there's nothing like riding and having grins w/ some buds.
you should price out jerseys

whats wrong with racers? other than the fact that they dont throw their bodys and bikes off huge cliffs and damage both?
nothing other than your mentality and jealousy based hatred for huckers... :heart:lovebunny said:
I race and don't have problem with huckers.
