This was my first time racing the Mt. SAC Fat Tire Classic. I have to say it was cool having our entire group out and it really did wonders for my anxiety. I felt a lot more relaxed and worry free before the start. Moe is a damn nice guy and let me borrow his brand…
As you’ve already read, Priscilla mentioned that the MtnBikeRiders crew raced yesterday’s Mt. Sac Fat Tire Classic. My daughter Breanna and I raced in the tandem category.

Last night Breanna and I hit a small portion of the Loop in order to help us get ready for the big Mt Sac Fat Tire Classic race this Sunday. Yah I know my jersey is too tight…But I do want to thank my boys, Vince C. and Vince R. at KHS Bicycles for hooking…
So that everyone knows where I’m coming from, I’d like to clarify that my name is Jeremy and I am a 29er fanatic. As I mentioned in a previous post, I went to North Carolina a couple of weeks ago and I got to do some mountain biking. To show you that us riders here…
A few weeks ago, I tried out Lance’s super sweet Santa Cruz only to find out that the shifting was pretty bad. I had suggested that he try to lube his cables to see if that will help. So after finishing our after-ride breakfast, I showed him how to baby his cables. But the photos…
