Breckenridge Yeti Tribe Meet Best Yet

Yeti Prez, Chris Conroy places the #10 Tribe Meet pint glass into my "Holy Grail" display case.

The 2011 pilgrimage to Yetiland had the group nestled in a unique "pine chip" setting outside the high country city of Breckenridge, Colorado.  It was the 10th modern day Tribe Meeting and was enjoyed by Yeti freaks from around the US and the globe.  

Seven COMotion Sports team members including Boni Sandavol, Sarge, Evie Calhoun, Jenny Gilkerson, Chris and Megan Taylor, and Ben Truitt attended this year's meeting showing support for our favorite sponsor. 
Weather could not have been better with warm temperatures, afternoon cloud cover and light breezes.  Nights were cool enough for the hoodies but ground sleepers did not freeze.

Saturday's Epic ride showed 3 busloads of freaks summiting Hoosier Pass, then descending into Southpark (Fairplay) and up again to the Kenosha Pass trailhead. Park County sheriff folks managed to get us across Hwy 285 without fatalities.
Ride options ranged from a 20 mile straight up and over Georgia Pass back to camp to a 40 mile version that added the West Ridge to Hwy 9 section of singletrack.  The rocky technical descent into Breck was perfect for my  575.  Many tires, rims and derailleurs were wounded on the downside ride.

All the big names with the company were on hand including pro racer Jared Graves,  Jared hung out at the RV and signed my recently completed BMX Yeti.  The limited edition bikes were release for Jared's 2008 Olympic Games competition.

Good times for sure.  Looking forward to the 2012 event and curious how the Yeti planners are going to top this one.  Somehow, I think they will.
