The Sonoran Pirates (aka Son-Rats) is a team of mountain bikers from AZ, MI, CA, CO, MD, PA, UT, TX, ID & The U.K. The team was established in 2004.
Across the ranks they try and hold true to their fundamental belief that...
"the only thing that matters is that you ride... not how fast you ride... nor the gear upon which you ride."

Founding father back in the saddle...
Our close friend Glen Byrne initially introduced Lacey and I to mountain biking. Our first rides took place in Thetford Forrest. The forrest was close to our home in the village of Isleham and we spent many weekends riding, smoking, and drinking coffee/tea there with Glen.
Unfortunately, sometime after we left England, Glen lost interest in mountain biking and hung up his steed. The dry spell lasted for several years.
Until today!
Today, Glen took his recently purchased new mountain bike back out to those trails and reconnected with the forrest. Welcome back my friend... there are so many pirates riding now... and we ride because of the seed you planted so many years ago.
Interested in Glen's new bike? it's made by a German company called Cube (primarily sold in Europe). Check out the video with their founder below or their website here... Cube Bicycles
