Gary Fisher Roscoe III Round number 2 was on the Gary Fisher Roscoe. I had to wait a little while for this one as some dude drove from Vegas to test ride it. That’d be 4 plus hours of driving each way! Before we get going on the review, I have to preface my thoughts…

This past weekend, my friend Full Squish Randall & I went out and rode some bikes at the Trek Demo in Fullerton. First off, I got to give props to Matt Gfell of Jax Fullerton. Matt got us started on a couple of matching Gary Fisher Superflys. Full Squish Randall & I were like twin…
The weekend started early on ALL counts for me. On Friday I headed to Fontana to pre-ride the DH & Super D course. With only two races left, I am currently in good standings with the overall points for the Winter Series in both – Super D & DH. I wanted to be prepared for…
This race was the 2nd to the last of the 6 part series. You would have to race at least 5 of the 6 to qualify for the overall points. So far, I’m the only one in my category that has raced at least 4 and the next race on the 22nd would make it…

I’ve been using Oury Grips (standard & lock–ons) for many years now. I can’t say it enough that they are comfortable! They fit very well in my hands. I…

I have decided to call it quits. That’s right, no more mountain biking of any type for RL. I will begin my new career into body building since it doesn’t require any type of conditioning, all I have to do is lift weights… I will hang up the cleats and the bike only if I…
