Our good friends from PricePoint.com let us take some pictures of a pre-production Downhill bicycle. As you can see, this bike was raced last weekend at Fontana, its talented rider took 2nd place on his first ever downhill race. Now, that’s pretty impressive!

Came across this link to the 15 Greatest Mountain Biking Crashes. Yikes. If you get queasy just thinking about crashes, do not watch. Grotesque bodily damage No. 10 at about 32 seconds. No. 4 at about 33 seconds. No. 1: I’ve seen before. It happened at Carrizo Gorge in San Diego. Here’s a link to…
A few years ago I went on my first ride to Aliso Woods. One of my bestest buddies, Scott Finch (yes Tony Finch’s brother) invited a bunch of us to ride certain parts of Aliso. Below is a picture of Scott and I on a long climb called Mathis…I hate climbing, so that meant this…
