Ducati MotorCycles

Bianchi has partnered with the Italian motorcycle manufacturer, Ducati, to build their own brand of man-powered bikes. The two companies believe the partnership is obvious.
Motor-bikes and bikes allow you to move easily in town. Traffic challengers will love the Ducati bicycle with a “street fighter” soul. It is equipped with all indispensable qualities of city motor-bikes: extreme lightness, naked technical features, high level components.


The line-up will include two all-carbon road bikes, an alu-carbon one, a hardtailed MTB, and a fully suspended one. Ducati cycling clothing and accessories are sure to follow.

It turns out that Ducati Superbike team rider, Troy Bayliss is quite a cyclist, too. "If I hadn’t become a pilot of motorcycles," he states, "I’d ride a bike as a pro rider. I can’t stand without my bike: I cover about 400 km per week in the saddle of my Bianchi."

Mountain Bike State Championships

The competition for this weekend's Nebraska State Mountain Bike championship is looking tougher than ever. These guys are rumored to be returning from the last race, peaked, trained and ready to burn off that back to school stress. Come join us at Swanson Park in Bellevue for the fun. Hope to see you there riding, racing or just cheering on the riders.

Ironman Wisconsin


Wet, Cold and Windy! That was Ironman Wisconsin today. Yet in true iron man fashion they pushed on.
Dana finished 11:25:59
Christina finished 12:08:55
Lindsey finished 13:50:25
On a day when most people wanted to stay close to a fire, these guys swam 2.4 miles , rode 112 miles and ran 26.2 miles.
All I can say is WAY TO GO!!

Back From Trek World



Myself, Matt, and the Highgear crew visited Wisconsin this week to check out all the new product coming out this year from Trek, LeMond, Gary Fisher and Bontrager. While we were there Lance decided to stop by for a while. Super Cool. I asked him to race for us in 2007. As you can see, he is giving it some thought. (-:

Even more excitement came when we checked out all the new product on the way for 2007. Bontrager is leading the way in aero product for the coming year, coupled with the new TTX Equinox frames from Trek. If your more into the Dirt, both Trek and Fisher have some exciting new product like the 69er, Ferrous 29er and HiFi models. To top it off LeMond has new carbon bikes with sub 900 gram frames. Stop by and check it out. We'd love to tell you all about it.
