Minnesota Mountain Bike Series

The following companies are sponsoring the 2010 Series.  We encourage you to learn more about them and thank them for their support of mountain bike racing in Minnesota.

We are pleased to welcome Peace Coffee as our 2010 presenting sponsor.  Peace Coffee includes a staff of twelve and coffee varieties of fifteen and growing.  They roast, pack and distribute their coffee beans all under one eco-friendly roof in Minneapolis.  In the Twin Cities metro, Peace Coffee delivers by bike year-round and their suburban accounts get their coffee from a big, bright biodiesel van. They are devoted to the idea of a fairly traded, farmer-friendly product and the wonders of a great cup of coffee.  www.peacecoffee.com

Our existence is intimately linked to the exploration and enjoyment of playground earth while riding on two wheels. We make bicycle components, accessories and apparel, all firmly grounded in no-nonsense design philosophy, valuing performance and usability, not fads and gimmicks.  www.bontrager.com
