Pearl Izumi Supports IMBA

Long-time IMBA corporate member Pearl Izumi increased its support of IMBA's National Mountain Bike Patrol (NMBP) to the tune of $4,000 this year. The company supplies patrollers with discounted NMBP-logoed Vagabond jackets. In addition to their support of the NMBP, Pearl Izumi supports IMBA financially, manufactures our signature IMBA socks and prints IMBA info on their clothing hang tags. The company also produces the popular Ben & Jerry's cycling jersey, which raises funds for IMBA's Sprockids program.

Industrial Alliance Pacific Life Prints Sprockids Brochure

Kona Bowling Tournament a Strike

The fifth annual Kona/IMBA Bowling Tournament was held Oct. 7 at Interbike in Las Vegas. The tourney, which has become an after-hours fixture at the world's leading bicycle trade show, attracted more than 300 bowlers to the Orleans Casino raising $9,000 for IMBA. All 72 lanes were used and, as always, the range of bowling attire was perhaps more impressive than the final scores. Many thanks to Above-and-Beyond corporate supporter, Kona, for sponsoring the event.
