Double Down Hoe Down
The annual All Gravity Series “The Double Down Hoe Down” took place last weekend in Spokane, WA. There were over 170 racers that entered. The Gravity crew was in attendance and had quite the run on the podium. Gravity’s booth provided hot coffee and donuts all weekend to help the racers get stoked and even cured a few hangovers!

James and Garett on Knolly
Knolly Bikes is thrilled to have James Doerfling and Garett Buehler representing our brand again this season. After last season we developed a new team program to ensure James and Garett were in a position to build on their momentum and push their riding even further this season. For 2012 the team is excited to work with the following amazing companies: SR Suntour, Gravity Components, Joystick Bicycle Components, Mountain Racing Products (MRP), Alex Rims, Hayes Bicycle Components, KMC Chains, Lizard Skins, and Maxxis tires. We truly appreciate their support!
“It’s cool to be riding for brands who really support our vision, and give us the freedom to explore our creativity with Freeriding while having fun on our bikes. This year is going to be insane, full of adventures to some of the most badass big mountain zones around. Riding on a team with one of your best buddies, and the support from all the sponsors is a dream come true. We cannot wait to get busy shooting and pushing it on big mountain missions until the Red Bull Rampage Champ is crowned this fall. Stoked.”
-Garett and James
