Bo Pitkin, AKA the B-Train, The Linebacker of Cross, The Sodomizer – Attack from the Back, has ab-SIN-lutely accepted the Big Ring as his Saviour. Born and raised on the eastern shores of Lake Erie, south of the Chicken Wing capital of the world and in the hilly Allegheny mountains, Bo was bred for cold, wet, muddy cross racing. He had a blue banana seat bike growing up, a full rigid mountain bike at Penn State, and used to do crazy night rides ripping through the monuments around Washington DC. Bo loves tacky single-track, cold muddy cross races, and long winding mountain roads.
Some of Bo’s recent accomplishments cycling are riding every single mile of trails in Park City his first summer, finishing the Vail 100 the 2nd, finishing LOTOJA third third, having a killer team at 24 hours of Moab, Riding all over France during the tour, and winning the B’s, A35+ and making his first pro cross podium with Sam Krieg and Ali Goulet (not bad company).
When not cycling, Bo loves powder, backcountry and nordic skiing. A quick check of his iPod reveals, Matisyaho, Citizen Cope, 50 Cent, Dr Dre, Snoop Dogg, J5, G Love, Jay Z, and Panajbi MC.
According to Bo, “Winners do what loser don’t!”
