2010 Riders' Festival

Thanks to everyone who made it to the 2010 Riders' Festival at the Dirt Empire Dirtpark in Empire, Co. It was great to see all of the familiar faces and also some new people at the newly designed Park. VitaminWater made an appearance and shared some free product with everyone, Thanks Jen and Jack!! Powerbar also provided us with product for everyone. Thanks to Lewis Sweet Shop for the Burgers, Piccis for the Beer, Hard Rock for the spaghetti dinner and Empire Gas for the free fuel cards. A special thanks to the Town of Empire and our new mayor Wendy Koch. Matty K, Carl, Billy Goat Moving Company, Gags @ Never Summer Industires, Peter Wurster @ Unity Snowboards, Thank you all.  

  The event was awesome! About 20+ people attended the gathering over the weekend and people traveled from as far as Amarillo, TX to join us!(Great meeting Mike and Garrett). The games and skills challenges added entertainment to the already fun Riders' Festival. Joseph Ponce de Leon won the Goal Kick(kick a size 1 soccer ball into the open end of a kicker while on your board) and Cole Ship won the Dirt Challenge(like "skate" on a mountainboard) and the Switch Slalom for the pro division. Free riding was also part of the agenda so we took a few runs on the Historic SilverPlume Trail. Everyone had a great time!  New Riders' made an appearance at our event and we encourage everyone to continue bringing new people to these gatherings. We hope everyone enjoyed the event as much as we did. See you all for the "Trash the Dress" Party.
