One of the most important components on your mountain bike is your tires. They grip the ground and provide the traction you need on different surfaces. Most mountain bike riders look for light weight, strength and traction in a tire and many advanced riders even have multiple sets of tires for different riding conditions. So what tire is right for your mountain bike and riding style? With so many different manufactures and models to choose from which one is right for you? These are not easy questions to answer so hopefully we can provide some insight to get you moving in the right direction. Mountain bike parts are not cheap and you want to make the right decision.

Early last week, we sounded the alarm that some leaders in Congress were calling for the elimination of the federal transportation enhancements program, the primary funding source for bicycle facilities. Well, good news: Congress decided to maintain this program and extend current federal transportation law and funding through March 2012.There were several reasons why Congress did this, but one of the most important was that they heard from tens of thousands of cyclists (including you we hope) about the transportation and economic value of cost-effective national investment in bike and walk facilities. Your emails and phone calls made a difference!Of course, this extension only lasts for six months -- which means that we must keep letting our elected leaders know that dedicated cycling investments must be part of the national transportation mix. So please keep telling your Senators and Representatives about why a modest level of investment in cycling matters -- for transportation, recreation, health, and economic development. It will be especially important as we enter the new year (not that far away) to make the case for cycling.Thanks again to those of you who took a few minutes to contact Washington, DC. Along with the recent improving news about rumble strips, it's good to see that, together, we can make a real difference for cycling and bicycle travel in America.Source: http://blog.adventurecycling.org/2011/09/good-national-news.html
