Old Glory MTB is a mountain bike website primarily focused on American made products, services, and the biking community in the United States. I believe we have the best mountain biking opportunities on the planet. I have created this site to share articles that I'm passionate about with a focus on keeping it patriotic and supporting my homeland. I... 'm not going to go on some "buy Made in the USA" rant but I will list a short set of some the key values in buying American that have merit to me: Creates a better economy for the United States by employing workers from our own home states and keeps the money within our country. By keeping industries in the United States you're not only creating jobs and shoring up the economy for that local company or those local workers but also the industries that support it (eg IT, electricians, plumbers, accountants, lawyers, etc). Buying American is also better for the environment. Many foreign countries have little to no regard for environmental safety, while our factories are environmentally regulated. It doesn't make our products cheap to make but it does make the Earth cleaner. Buying American keeps innovation in our country and breeds an industry of excellence through increased competition. Buying American also supports state economies through taxes paid by manufacturing corporations and sole proprietors which help feed state government budgets to fund schools, roads, public safety and so on. This doesn't mean I'm against foreign products, but I do feel strongly in supporting the industry we do have in this great nation. All of my articles will not be USA built only. In this day in age it's not possible. I just want the site to have an American focus to it and hope you enjoy the content.Read More
