Bryan Cook: ATV's “Rookie of the Year”
 For the racer who’s called 2004’s “Rookie of the Year,” getting involved in ATV events was a matter of luck and location.
In his native North Carolina, Bryan Cook lived close to GNCC racer Santo DeRisi, watching him race and eventually riding with him. It was DeRisi who convinced Cook to give the sport a try on his own – and at age 24, Cook is having quite a year.

Maxxis Employees Send Holiday Wishes to Children All Over the World
 A Slinky or a yoyo might be a small present to a privileged child – but to a youngster who is often denied necessities, much less luxuries, such a gift can mean everything.

 The questions of the month we've selected to post are below. We want to hear from you! If you have a question for MaxxDaddy about our products or suggestions for the newsletter, send them to maxxdaddy@maxxis.com.
Hello, I love Maxxis C6006 tires! What a great value. I need help! Please tell me which exact tube I need for the C6006 120/80x18. Thanks in advance.
Jack - Brooklyn, NY
We recommend running a heavy duty tube for use with your 6006 tires. We currently offer two models: the Maxxis Extra Heavy Duty tube and the Maxxis Heavy Duty tube. Both models are available in the 18" size that you would need. Please visit your local Maxxis dealer to purchase this product.
I purchased a 2004 Polaris Predator earlier this year that came with Maxxis Razr tires. I am looking at running this on the ice this winter. What can you tell me about studding the tires?
Dan - West Allis, WI
We recommend contacting Winterstuds.com at 877-438-8369 or online at winterstuds.com. They have experimented with several of our tires and they would be able to offer you the best advice.
I have been riding the Mobster for three years now and love it. I was wanting to try something else that is pretty comparable. Do you have any suggestions?
Derek - Longmont, CO
Maxxis has a new tire coming out in January 2005 that you’re going to love. It’s called the ADvantage. It was designed with the help of World Champion Alison Dunlap. It has an aggressive tread pattern and corners on a dime. Give it a try - we think you’ll be happy you did.
I applied for bicycle sponsorship through your website. When and how will I find out if I am sponsored?
Charlie - Birmingham, AL
All teams and riders will be notified around the middle of December. You will be notified of this decision via e-mail. Keep the rubber side down.

From the outside looking in, professional cycling seems like the kind of grueling pursuit that would consume every waking moment and every spare ounce of energy. But for Geoff Kabush, cycling is also about enjoying what he does. 
One of the racing world’s most accomplished motorcycle champions is also one of the most respected by his peers. Scott Summers not only wins like a champion – he behaves like one, too. 
For Mike and Troy Bailey, rock crawling is a family affair. In just over four years of professional competition, Mike and his 29-year-old son have racked up an impressive array of victories, including strong showings at this year’s UROC events.
