  • (1888PressRelease) November 10, 2010 - How to Rock San Juan Howler Mountain Biking on Dec. 11, 2010.

    Let us show you how easy it is to rock to Central America's newest premier mountain bike action scene-Nicaragua's San Juan Howler.

    San Juan Howler, a New Mountain Bike Adventure
    San Juan Howler is an undiscovered premier mountain bike race in Central America that literally rocks seasoned mountain bikers and those new to cycling adventures. Young compared to Guatemala's El Reto del Quetzal and Costa Rica's La Ruta de los Conquistadores, and ounce for ounce just as exciting, Howler's third annual race on December 11, 2010 juices up adrenalin on Nicaragua's pristine mountain trails.

    Now, what's so unique about Howler, you ask? At a time when we're jaded out of our senses and craving for unusual experiences, it's totally refreshing to find mountain bike action that's purely gratifying in connecting body, mind, spirit and nature.

    "Test of Metal" for People and Bikes
    For example, Rod Dagneau, a 2009 participant, writes in his photo essay, Mountain Biking in the Second Poorest Country in the Western Hemisphere, [link] how Howler's co-course designer Bob Bombardier, "strung together horse and foot trails, steep chundery and loose descents, dry stream beds and constructed several kilometers of new single track."

    Rod also points out that Nicaragua is the third safest country in the Americas after Canada and Chile. Coupled with a low foreign currency exchange rate, San Juan Howler is a mountain biker's dream come true-to "test the metal" of a person's true spirit with his or her mountain bike while racing on unspoiled terrain.
