Community

I am continually blown away with the support MT Alpha has received from our community!

Everyday MT Alpha gets more and more support.
Be it support from our current sponsors; encouragement from the "mangy crew"; appreciation from our Alphas and new interest from Missoula business owners (speaking of which- Cafe D just hopped on board with a serious awesome sponsorship- Considering that Jamie and I basically live at Dolce, we are SO excited to have Missoula's BEST restaurants on our kits!) - MT Alpha is so lucky!  I love our Missoula community!

Yesterday's ride up Wallman was awesome possum. Our photographer sponsor, Tom Robertson (who is the only non-Alpha that has the exclusive right to hop on any MT Apha ride- lucky him!) joined us for a sweet photo sesh.  Check back soon to see his awesome pics!



 Jen B. took these killer pictures for us. Her senior BFA thesis is going up at the UC tomorrow from 4-6.  Stop by and check it out if you have time!

MT Alpha Inaugural Ride and Initial Meeting

Yesterday was MT Alpha's first training ride of the season and what a beautiful day for it! 

We had a great time hammering up Sawmill and ripping down Drop Out and getting terrible tan lines in the process.  We even got to show off to a couple of our sponsors. We saw Tim ofBechtold Law Firm and his lovely family on the trail.  Thanks again, Tim! It was great to see you guys out there!

We also saw Phil Grove from Hammer Nutrition out there milling around.  Hammer Nutrition is our product sponsor and we're super amped to use some Montana made all natural products while racing this year. Thanks Hammer, we love you!  


Yesterday day solidified our speculations:  We have a seriously awesome group of women and CANNOT WAIT to show up at races in full force!


Tom Roberston Photography will be joining us tomorrow for our training ride and post-ride "prehab"session. Tom is an amazing local photographer and we are SO psyched and seriously honored to have him as a sponsor.  Check back soon to see more sweet pics of our hot ladies!
