I was fortunate to get invited to Test some bikes with Paintrain, LB, Aaron and Jen from Outside mag for a few days this past week down in Tucson. I was only man enough for two days of riding and I now have a lot more respect for product tests like this: they spent 6 Read the full article…

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 Read the full article…

No, not the drink… The Whiskey Off-Road is coming up, and the folks over at Singletrack.com have a nice little write-up about the area and the event.

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.
