2012 Team BGB-Mountain Khakis Announced

The Definition of New - New Sponsors, New Riders, New Season, New Team!

After a successful rookie season for Team RM East and earning our stripes in 2011, moving into the 2012 season has brought some big changes. The most exciting change, the team now carries a new name, Team Billy Goat Bikes-Mountain Khakis. We are so stoked to be able to continue to grow a partnership this season with Mountain Khakis as title sponsor (www.mountainkhakis.com). Since 2003, Mountain Khakis has been an industry leading brand bringing mountain-inspired lifestyle apparel to those that prefer the outdoors. Did you notice those keywords “mountain” and “outdoors”? What more could you ask for from a sponsor?!

We are calling 2012 a year of diversification, as the team roster has actually grown covering the entire spectrum of categories, from Ladies, to Juniors, to some our returning and new Pros. Our primary focus will be getting our riders qualified to compete in the UCI DH World Cup and the U.S. Gravity Nationals, then performing with success on both the World and National stage. All that experience rolls down hill (no pun intended) and will be leveraged to develop and grow our GROM riders into the Pros you’ll see on the podium tomorrow.

So, keep eye out for the team with brightest colors on the trail (thanks to POC Sports www.pocsports.com). Team Billy Goat Bikes Mountain Khakis will be competing at the North American UCI World Cup Events, the PRO GRT sanctioned races, the Snowshoe Series, Gravity East Series and the POC Eastern States Cup. The Team Roster includes: Team Manager: Matt Haynes, Assistant Team Manager/Media Relations: Jay Schultz, Max Morgan, Ryan Taylor, Robert DeMao, Jay Guidry, Nick Frantz, Andy Pavlica, Brook Buckelew, Josh Bagwell, Sandy Bartlett, Josh Bagwell, Aaron Bartlett, Nich Ifkovits, Heither Schultz.
