So get this…on Memorial Day, Lady P and I loaded up our 29ers and headed down to our favorite trail, Aliso Woods for some not so epic riding. As we’re traveling down the freeway at 70mph, I hit a bump on the road, and then I look on my rear view and noticed Lady P’s…
Art is planning on writing a full article on this subject, but I wanted to give some teaser shots of a recent project he did with his GoPro. I didn’t want to spoil Art’s article. So I’ll leave you with a final photo.

Through the years I’ve slowly weened myself off Ebay as a seller. I’ve gotten tired of the shipping and fees involved. So after…
If you’re familiar with our other website, BikeCommuters.com, then you’ll be familiar with some of the community service projects that I’ve been doing. Back in the Fall of 2012 I got some help from Planet Bike, they donated a huge box of bicycle lights, bells, and locks for me to give away to some of…
THE AMXC NO SLIP GRIPS While at Sea Otter we ran into Loaded Precision Inc. If you have never heard of them they are a precision bicycle component manufacturing company based out of San Diego California. They make everything from handlebars, stems, headsets, seatpost, wheelsets, and hubs. This is a…
