but it still makes me giggle. Happy sunday, brothers and sisters. If the weather allows, get a ride in. If not have a laugh, drink a beer and get ready for the next one. —bp.

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 [...]

Here’s to Friday and here’s to beer, #occupybikeseat and have no fear.

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 [...]

Well, it’s January, which means it’s time for my yearly existential crisis. This existential crisis means I recently applied for a job in a bike shop. Looks like I’m going to get it, too. I won’t whine about it, I promise, but I want you all to know that I am doing this under duress. [...]

There comes the time in all of our lives when we need to make the decision: to #occupybikeseat or not. Being a reader of this site, you’d think it’s an easy question right? WRONG! There is a bitch in all of us and today I feel like slappin’ a bitch and setting things right. This [...]

So on Friday, it was 15 degrees here in Cincinnati and I was on my way to the suburbs to pick up some new dog coats when Caveman texted me: I just had a hamburger for breakfast and soon to be some trail time. I texted him back: It is 15 degrees here and my [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

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. It reminded me of the times I spent climbing out of Skull Valley as the sun beat down on my already-sunburnt neck. These are the types of events [...]

Really. Just read it ten minutes ago. After more than a week in court, plaintiff Specialized was left with just one charge against Volagi, breach of contract by the two former employees. Just before noon, local time the verdicts came in: Robert Choi guilty of breach of contract. Barley Forsman, not guilty. But the message [...]

Its cold out and the trails are damn good right now in Spokane. I’ve been killing time waiting for the temp to rise a couple degrees before getting my pedal on. I came across these two vid’s this morning while my girlfriend was trying to find her keys (they were locked in her car). I [...]
