Old Becomes New Becomes Fat

Over the past few years we have seen the popularity of fat bikes grow exponentially. With the mainstream availability of affordable complete builds from the likes of Salsa and Surly, we are now starting to see a rapid evolution in gear. Titanium frames, carbon forks, more tire selection than ever, and even rumors of a full suspension frame. But the [...]

#occupybikeseat – #occupytshirt

We have teamed up with Pioneer Sales Marketing to bring you guys the first DC t-shirt in 2 years. We are really excited about this and I can’t wait to get these out there to you. 20 bucks gets you a kick ass, high quality cotton t-shirt and maybe even a love letter from Dave over at Pioneer. Time [...]

The Local Bar Has Been Raised: Kevin Peraza

The Chandler BMX park is a pretty amazing oasis of concrete in the desert. It’s right down the street from my work and occasionally I will go for a little “business lunch” to ride it. Flailing around doing straight airs and wall rides can really break up an afternoon of corporate America.  I always see some impressive [...]

Friday Motivation

Just got an email from my buddy AfghanBMXer.  Seems he has been hard at work snapping some pictures of the people on bikes in his “neighborhood”. Not quite sure why his photos motivate me to ride so much, but they do.  Too tired or sore to ride? Bike doesn’t fit right, saddle sucks, bar tape is ripped, cables are [...]

IF only…

Back in my college days I had a roommate that had a lot of IF bikes. All steel, all campy, and all with custom paint jobs. We didn’t dare touch them or even think about riding them. But this roommate also liked Guinness beer, a whole heck of a lot. Whenever he would get all tanked on that [...]

Tuesdays with Dirty: Winter Mix

Around this time every year, myself and a couple friends hop in the truck and take a winter road trip. We leave the comfort of the 70 degree desert singletrack and head north to the Four Corners area to do play in the cold. We usually leave the bikes at home for this one, but [...]

Who’s Your Daddy?

In the never ending search to find Snakehawk’s Daddy I stumbled across this gentleman. I think he might just be the man we have been looking for “I take all responsibility for my own reactions”  Ray is my new hero. *This message brought to you by the boys over at the Nashville Bicycle Lounge. They put some [...]

Break it Off. Then Repack Your Full Pipe

This video makes me smile and cringe (Sminge?) all at the same time. *poached from hellingham. A few months ago I posted some pictures from the 35th anniversary of Repack and this week we received a little helmet cam footage from that day. There is no editing and no music…but you get a great feel of the ride [...]

Old Mecca, Same Stoke

I am on the road yet again and this trip finds me in Moab, UT. This place never gets old. Some try and say otherwise and I say those people are blind fools. It has fluctuated in popularity over the years but fun will always be had here. I remember the first time I came here, 10 [...]

File Under: WTF?

Electric Grip Shift   Nothing quite like taking a part that is super simple and making it more complex.  Innovation?  I feel like this is something I would see over at yourbikehatesyou but instead I found it here.

Marco the Beast

I cruised over to the DC Tumblr page as I settled in for my post ride recovery beer(s) this evening. Although I’m not quite sure what this thing is all about, I do know that Big Jonny does a hell of a job putting up badass images and commentary. This little blurb caught my eye: I have this [...]

South Africa via Prescott?

Our friends over at Epic Rides are doing it again! I know we talk about them a lot over here, but we just can’t help it. They have been with DC since the very beginning and we love to support those who support us. Anybody want to go to South Africa? Get yourself to Prescott, [...]
