Blue Ridge Racing

Description

Blue Ridge Racing Products represents the dream of founder Greg Loftin to work in the motorcycle industry. The core idea of providing tool kit solutions to the powersports industry came about after Greg had a mechanical failure on his motorcycle 50 miles from the truck in the middle of the North Ga. Mountains. Greg had recently purchased the bike new and, with less than 100 miles on the odometer, had not thought to bring along any tools. With only a multi-tool, emergency matches and his cell phone on hand, this proved to be a big problem when it became obvious the tool was of little use for the necessary repairs. To make matters worse, there was no cell service and his matches were wet from the many stream crossings he had done that day! After spending most of a cold February night hypothermic and trying to McGyver a fix, Greg began thinking about what he SHOULD have been carrying all along. Greg survived his ordeal and, in the days that followed, began looking for a set of tools that would allow him to fix most any type of problem he might encounter while out riding and exploring. After many frustrating hours both on the internet and at the local hardware store looking at tools, it became obvious that outfitting a tool kit was going to be both time consuming and expensive. After making a number of purchases, Greg discovered that most of tools which were small enough to fit in a tool pouch were limited in use for anything beyond simple tasks...
