With the fires going on lately, if you go out for a ride, all you’ll do is make yourself sick. I’m not getting on my bike and I would suggest you do the same.

Well, the funding for my XC racing machine fell through so I had to come up with a new solution to build the bike: Borrow parts from my K2 Lithium 4.0 bike. So my specs are as follow: Fork: Manitou Black Platinum Wheelset: Vuelta USA StarLite Brakes: Hayes HFX-Nine Hydraulic Stem: Ritchey Logic Crankset: RaceFace…
Vuelta USA provided the wheels for our Ultimate All-Mountain Project. These wheels have made more than a few heads turn. Check out the bladed spokes and their pattern, quite unique for an All-Mountain setup. The wheels have proven to be quite durable so far, they have endured 1 crash and a few jumps. I’m also…
Saturday morning the group met up at Santiago Oaks for a challenging but short ride. The Oaks makes you climb three considerably steep hills before it pays you back with some entertaining downhills. RL didn’t care for the first ascent so he tried flapping his wings to pass up the next two. We had a…
