    Mount Etna

    My wife and I just returned to the states from Sicily. We did the "Ride to the Top", arguably the most difficult ride they offer. Our guide and the 3rd person on the tour were all older than us (likely 60's), and definitely more fit. We both did fine, there were some areas where the terrain...

    2022 Santa Cruz Heckler

    I've barely had time to ride mine. I had lots of free time the first part of the year, but it rained every weekend, trails were slop. Hopefully as summer progresses. I like my Fox 36 Factory E.

    2022 Santa Cruz Heckler

    Ahh, someone is buying the avocado! I bought in December, the bike before the troubles started. They have taken the ZEEB models off of the page in the US as well.

    Your thoughts on SRAM's new DB 8 brakes

    Maybe they meant close to Guide brakes... Which are total dogshit.

    Worth going tubeless?

    I went tubeless on my MTB almost 20 years ago, and would NEVER put a tube in, unless I had a really bad flat on a ride. Once, I picked up a 16d nail, the other, I actually tore the bead on the tire on volcanic rock. Tubeless with Tannus will let you run a bit lower pressure as well. It will be...

    What did you buy your ebike this week?

    I have one of these for sale for half price(or less) if anyone wants it. I took it off of my old bike before I sold it... Older 2 button shifter, but $150! Worked well while I used it.

    Phone and car keys

    I use a hip pack water bladder pack vs. a backpack. Sits nice, carries 3L of water, a snack, keys, phone, and a tool or 2. Made by a company called Henty.

    What did you buy your ebike this week?

    I think the rear triangle is different as well. I really enjoyed the mullet setup I test rode, but ended up buying a 29er on sale because that is what was left.

    Amazingly beautiful. When we finally make it to Scotland, do they hire out bikes near here? I would love to see this area.

    What did you buy your ebike this week?

    Chainreaction is trustworthy. Met the crew in California last year, have been ordering from them for a while. They gave me a great recommendation for a seafood restaurant in Northern Ireland... If that doesn't build trust, I don't know what does!

    Hey everyone, I can't believe how HUGE ebike/pedal assist bikes have become!

    It is a matter of time before it changes.

    Hey everyone, I can't believe how HUGE ebike/pedal assist bikes have become!

    Hopefully they become huge enough to get the archaic USFS rules changed. We need better access to trails. That is my only complaint after going E. Of course this is mostly a USA problem... Better access around the rest of the world.
