It’s been a while since we’ve mentioned anything about our bike project. Well here’s an update. We received some nice goodies in the past few months so I wanted to show just how the bike is coming along. This is the bike with some of the bare necessities. Fork, wheels bars and headset. These are…

I called Motobecane this morning to find out how much the Fly Pro is. I remember talking to Joe M at Sea Otter and he mentioned that the bike, with the SID has an MSRP of $1895, but some dealers have been known to sell this bike as low as……..$895!!!! That’s right, the Fly Pro…WITH…
One of my favorite bikes is the Woodstock 707. I love how this bike rides. As I’ve mentioned before, I don’t like to lean too far forward on my bike. Some would say that is how XC riders ride. But for me, having short stubby arms, I require an All Mountain set up. You’ve seen…
This weekend I drank my share of Fat Tire Ale that could last me for a few days. So I wondered what I should do with some of the bottles left over. So I figured I’d do a little project with one of my bottles. Step 1. Take an old Fat Tire Ale Bottle and…
On Saturday morning I test rode the new Motobecane Fly Pro. The best way to describe this bike is….FAST! The bike only weighs 23lbs, which means you can get going pretty quickly. I’m so used to bikes that weigh 30+ pounds, so when I got on the Fly Pro, it was a major treat. The…
Hope you and your families are having a great holiday. The folks of MtnBikeRiders.com celebrated by having a BBQ at Moe’s house.

The other night Priscilla and I decided to do a street night ride. So I got on my Redline 925 and she on the new Motobecane Fly Pro. Since it was dark out, I figured I’d put on some lycra! Check me out as I’m sporting some skin tight clothing… Here’s Priscilla with the Fly…
I’ve got congestion, a runny nose and an occasional cough. Do you continue riding when you’re in this condition? For the last two weeks, I’ve been “kinda” sick. I’m sick, but it’s not anything crippling. In fact, I can still do pretty much everything I’d like to do including mountain biking. But I’d really like…
Well, that’s just about what it felt like…. A few years ago I was out riding with my friend, forgive me if you’ve heard this story before. But anyhow, so I was out there in my usual bad ass self, hitting the trails as if I were some sort of abusive husband, which I’m not…
