Even though the weather may not be ideal for riding at the moment, we’re busy preparing singletracks for the 2010 season and we’re super stoked! In case you missed it, here’s what’s been happening @ singletracks over the last few weeks:
MTB Gear Reviews
In December we added more than two hundred 2010 mountain bikes to the site so you can find the best ride this year. We also just linked more than 100 new product videos to the gear pages and launched “Sweet Bike,” an online app that allows you to spec custom rigs. Both can be found via the tabs on product pages.
Another change you may not have noticed is that we’ve started compiling the “Best of” list for 2010. The list will be constantly updated based on member reviews through September so rate your gear to help us find this season’s best stuff!
2010 MTB Race and Festival Calendar
The mountain bike race calendar is filling up fast and at last count we showed nearly 100 events listed for 2010. If you’re racing or organizing a local event, pop over to the calendar and tell us about it.
iPhone and Facebook Stuff
This week we announced our new mobile site with a special iPhone feature that helps you find the closest bike trails and that’s just the tip of the iceberg. This year we’ll be beefing up our mobile offerings so you can find and navigate mountain bike trails all over the world.
Our Facebook Fan Page has also been taking off this year and we recently passed the 3,000 fan mark (which pales in comparison to the 110,000 members on singletracks but it’s a start). If you aren’t a fan yet, add us and join the conversation.
SingletracksT-shirts and Jerseys
In December we received yet another batch of singletracks t-shirts, enough to (hopefully) last through the spring. If you don’t have one already, they’re just $10 and all the proceeds go to IMBA. We also created our first official jersey and if you didn’t get a chance to pre-order, there are just a few left for purchase. Just like the tees, all proceeds from the jerseys will go to IMBA in 2010.
We hope you’re as stoked as we are for mountain biking this year. See you on the trail!
