The Roots of North American Cycling Comes to DVD
By Nelly
Long before Lance Armstrong's 7 straight Tour de France victories, long before Greg Lemond's 3 TdF wins and even long before the legendary 7-Eleven team North American cycling needed a venue to develop talent.
That venue began in 1975 as a 3 day Colorado stage race known as the Red Zinger Bicycle Classic, a race that later grew to be known as the Coors International Bicycle Classic. By the mid-80's the Coors Classic was a full three week race, the 4th largest race in the world and had attracted talent from across the globe.

Mastering the Art of Trials with Ryan Leech
By Mike Lawrence
After nearly 8 months of no biking I needed some inspiration. At the local shop waiting for my first ride of the season to begin, I stumbled across this video. With a price tag of $28.95 I didn't hesitate to buy it. A video dedicated to trials and featuring Ryan Leech, one of the most prominent trials riders ever had to be a great flick. Manifesto was brilliant, so I reasoned that "Mastering the Art of Trials" would be even better.
