I had so much fun stuff from these two amazing rides that I couldn’t edit it all down to 10 minutes. So… I made a 10 minute video of each. If you only watch one of the 4 videos from Moab then I’d pick Slickrock. Amazing place, amazing riding, and I’m amazed that I rode […]

A Second Moab Trilogy – This Time in Video Rather Than Words
After-thought, written hours after this was first published but as I first really got to think about it… yes, there will be a third book written for the Moab Trilogy! I was just going through the videos so I could fact check and decided to edit some of it as I went along. Some time […]

In addition to looking forward to having fun riding and getting caught up with some friends I was also intending to write up some product reviews. I still intend to write those […]
Say hello to Stumpy
Ever since Andrea and I started mountain biking in places that actually had mountains (like Pisgah or the Kingdom Trails) I’ve felt like my old Grey Gary (a Gary Fisher HiFi Plus) wasn’t the right bike for the big descents and trails. It’s been a great bike to me, never let me down including the […]
