From Pickups to Semi Trailers: Team Peterson is Changing the
by MICHAEL POLLAK
Picture this, you're at a hillclimb walking through the pits checking out the bikes. You walk past the guys with their pickup trucks and think nothing of it. Suddenly something very large catches your eye. You immediately run over to check it out and find that it's Team Peterson's new semi trailer decked out with full race graphics. Wow!
Acquired from a NASCAR team this hauler has all the bells and whistles. Complete with a large lift gate that hoists the bikes up to the upper deck for storage and transport. The lower deck is appointed with all the storage you could want for your tool collection. In the front you'll find a plush retreat with leather sofa, flat screen satellite TV, and of course air conditioning.
In true Peterson fashion the bar has again been raised. That's what Team Peterson is about, professionalism. Just take a look at their pit and you will see what I mean. Full width awning shades the team's 12 bikes! The trailer's race graphics have been designed by Bret Peterson in connection with Olcom graphics. The trailer graphics perfectly match the graphics on all the bikes. Nice touch!
Team Peterson has formally taken on 2 additional riders, Kevin Peterson and Tom Kelly to join World Champ Robie Peterson, Bret Peterson, and Brian Peterson. Both are great riders and complement the team. You are really missing out if you haven't been to a hillclimb to see Team Peterson in action. Team Manager Kerry Peterson really knows his stuff when it comes to managing a large team with 5 riders. It's quite the production to see the semi unloaded, awning up and bikes displayed in a matter of minutes.
Peterson attention to detail carries on into their bikes with anodized parts with rider and team name. Each bike stand is complete with a plaque displaying the rider and exact bike giving a showcase look.
When it comes to a show you won't find a more professional look than Team Peterson at a hillclimb.
