Chuck Taylor Libolt
Backbone's very own Pro DH racer in CA, Chuck-T will be looking to enter the fray at Sea Otter's Dual Slalom race this year! He will be looking to snag a new TOMAC SNYPER frame to layup his new bike, so WATCH OUT! Chuck may be barging a gate a race near you. Chuck Libolt was featured in a full page ad for Amino Vital last year!
Chuck "Tabasco" Libolt will be not only be holding it down
amongst the Pro DH racers at Sea Otter this year...he plans to
pony up and race Dual Slalom as well. His secret weapon? A
Kenda Excavator equipped TOMAC Snyper, size small. This was the
same bike ridden by World Cupper Filip Polc last season with
much success. Chuck will be around for a while, probably
between Tomac, Kenda, and Amino Vital... So find him and see if
he'll let ya ride his bike! Good luck with that...
 
Benge Bros to join
Backbone Gravity Squad for '09
Austin Benge and his brother will be joining Backbone Adventure
Cycling's gravity squad for 2009, helping to heat up the West
Coast as baby-pro's! These boys travel from Whistler to New
Zealand to ride with best the world has to offer. Hailing from
St. Helena, CA, we are proud to have these young guns running
the Backbone team colors for the season. Ask them how they like
their TOMAC PRIMER DH bikes, they'll be happy to tell you all
about them...
 
Backbone's Jeff
"Tookie" Williams Racing Sea Otter
Jeff will be aboard his new TOMAC CARBIDE XC1 for Sea Otter this
year, meeting his teammates on the West Coast for the first
time! Hailing from Argyllite, Kentucky, Jeff races Pro 24 Hr
stuff. He'll be glad to get some sunlight after being snowed in
for the past week, and raring to go in his first Sea Otter
appearance! Ask him if that thing has a HEMI when he rides
by...he'll appreciate that...

Backbone XC Team To
Get Tomac Type X's For '09
Backbone Adventure Cycling's Bert "The Hurt" Blanchette and
Vanessa "No Nickname Is Good Enough" Humic will take posession
of shiny new TOMAC TYPE X carbon hardtail frames for 2009. At
just 2.5lbs in a medium, these frames will build up to a
sub-20lb race bike in no time flat. Ask Vanessa how well it
climbs as she rides past you on the climb to the top of Brian
Head Peak!
  
Backbone Adventure Cycling and Wheeltags!
Backbone Adventure Cycling's DH team will be sporting shiny new
custom WHEELTAGS rim decals on their TOMAC PRIMER DH bikes this
year. Wheeltags has a huge assortment of custom and stock road
bike decals, but Backboners will be the first to have them on
the mountain bikes. R & D'ing them in the mid-America Top
Secret Test Facility, I have been working deep into the night on
the measurements and artwork for the 'tags. Don't be jealous,
just order your 'tags today and be glad we worked out all the
details..
Good Luck all you Backboners! Chris Sharp
