Our man Spomer was hiding in the bushes at Woodward West last week and came back with this epic video of Mike Montgomery. With over 3,500 Facebook "Likes," it's Vital MTB's all-time most liked video.

Traffic on Vital BMX has been through the roof over the past month. StumbleUpon linked to one of our videos last month, giving us about 100k more visitors than usual. Total unique visitors over the past 31 days is 516,365 – our highest ever. The screenshot below is from Google Analytics.

Vital President Brad McDonald recently uploaded a photo album to Vital BMX with some great old school shots from ’90 – ’92. For you old school types, it’s a trip down memory lane. Keith Treanor, Vic Murphy, Spike Jonze, Dave Voelker, and Pete Augustin are just a few of the riders included. Kiddies – take a peek at some BMX history.

Check out the full album here.

Because we know product is important to the mountain bike market, we’ve made the Vital MTB product guide a priority. The goal of the product guide is to provide our audience with a comprehensive resource to search for, compare, review, and share products. To this end, we’ve been consistently updating the guide. Our recent update included 2011 bikes, frames, and parts. The additions are starting to get traction. As the graph below shows, pageviews over the past year have doubled.

Monthly Pageviews: January 2010 – April 2011

Our product guide is open to all legitimate manufacturers. If you would like your brand to be included or updated, contact Todd Toth at: ttoth (at) vitalmedianet.com.

We recently made a nice change to our photos by increasing the size of our photos by almost 70%. The photos look much better! See for yourself by clicking any of the grabs below.

Over the weekend Ryan Villopoto clinched the 2011 Supercross title. This was an outstanding season from the moment the gate dropped at A1, so Ryan’s accomplishment is one for the history books.

Vans made the most of Ryan’s victory by running a homepage takeover on Vital MX. Within minutes of Ryan crossing the finish line, a Vans wallpaper and fixed banners were live on the Vital MX homepage. Congrats to Vans for having the foresight to execute a timely and successful campaign.
