The 2009 Dirty Fingers Camp Out and Ride!

Dirty Fingers Bicycle Repair, "Just a little camp trip to let all you suckers know how much we appreciate taking your money."

Last year Michtell thought we should end the summer riding season with a group camping trip that combined a bunch of rad people, a keg of beer, some grillin and a ride in some of the most beautiful scenery in the northwest. So as September came around again this year there was no apparent reason not to do it all over again.

A Must See Vid

Post n' Pint - Weekly Hood River Shop Ride

Every Thursday at 5:30 mtb riders of all types converge on Dirty Fingers Bicycle Repair for the weekly "Post n' Pint" shop ride. The ride begins at the shop and rolls out from there for a short section of riding on the roads prior to getting to the dirt. From there it follows the Mitchell Ridge xc loop on Post Canyon, that takes riders up through the Family Man stunt area and is packed with some of the fastest flowing single track in the area.

After the ride all are welcome to head back to the shop for a post ride Pint. Check out the photos below from typical Pint portion of Post n' Pint.

Transition Bike Jump Jam Video

Last year Transition Bike Co. moved into a new location and shortly after they began sculpting their very own dirt jump line. Now a year later they have put a lot of sweat and blood into the project and have an awesome jump line to show for it. Check out this video of the event and get more in from their blog post here.

Hood River Super D Race, Results, Photos and Video

Last weekend, June 27th, the Hood River Super D was held on Post Canyon. The event was put on by Breakaway Events and it was awesome! The course was dry and dusty but fun and presented racers with a challenging 17 minutes for the pros and averaged about 20 plus for the rest. Dirty Fingers Bikes had several racers who did very well. Ty Horton shown below took a first, on his brand new Transition Covert, in the expert category. Malcolm McCurdy, Transition grassroots rider and Dirty Fingers Grom worked his way into a first for Jr. expert and Andrew Deenik took a second in the masters. Check out the results here.

Kevin Tokstad also put together and awesome video. Check it out below.

Fingers and 10 Speed Coffee Party!

With the super d event in town, just having moved into a new building, (now up front with road frontage and more windows) and the fact Dirty Fingers Bicycle Repair is one year old, a party had to be thrown. So Mitchell and Brian at 10 Speed Coffee teamed up and put on one hell of a bash...

The place was packed!

Cam from Transition bikes even joined in the fun.

Mike manned the grill with over 200 Dogs served!

Speed Queen Underground was out back playing the tunes
