Transition Bikes is pleased to announce the launch of their highly anticipated Factory Race program!
To aid in this new direction Transition has hired Lars Sternberg as an athlete, and team director. Joining Lars on the squad is the world renowned duo of Jill Kintner, and Bryn Atkinson. In her first year racing professional Downhill, Jill will bring the fitness and bike handling skills that have made her an Olympic BMX Bronze Medalist and 4X World Champion to a whole new riding discipline. With many years experience racing at the Elite level, Bryn is a regular top ten finisher in World Cup rounds. Together they will embark on one of the most progressive schedules in 2010. While Bryn will be attacking the downhill World Cup circuit, Jill and Lars will be setting their sights on the North American race scene. In between World Cup rounds Bryn will be returning to join the team for key North American events.

This is a review and report of the following POC products that I’ve used for last season; Spine VPD Tee, Hip VPD Shorts, Bone VPD Leg, Bone Arm, Joint Ankle, Cortex Flow, Index DH and Iris DH goggles.
I started riding downhill last summer and I ended up buying a full set of POC armor and an Orange 224 evolution DH-bike. Since then I’ve been riding any time that I’ve had free time. Basically I have tested all the equipment I bought by crashing with them on, so I thought it would be good to write a review. I’ve taken pictures of each product after one season and I’ve also included pictures of my injuries that I’ve had while wearing this armor. I’ve also put some of my ideas on how to develop the products further. By the way I’m from Finland so excuse my grammatical errors.

A brief recap of my 2009 race season with Calgary Cycle.
My 2009 race season has come and gone so quickly, and I can’t believe that it’s almost New Years time. Before you know it, we’ll all be back in the saddle and ready to race for 2010! 2009 was one of the best seasons for me - being fortunate enough to get out to all the races that I wanted to attend, has always been a goal for me, and 2009 was no exception.
Season re-cap inside,
