Went out to Aliso Woods with my buddy Ivan this past Saturday. Aliso Woods is a BUSY trail network in south Orange county. It also comes in 2nd (to the Sea Otter Classic) for seeing high end bikes (Turner, Intense, Ellsworth…). I even met a nice guy on a beautiful Turner Sultan. The Sultan (such…
So I was sitting at my desk coming up with an idea for my perfect bike… 1. It has to have at least 6 inches in the front and about 5 or 6 in the back. 2. Big tires. 3. A small motor to help me out if I get tired going up the hills.…

This weekend I drank my share of Fat Tire Ale that could last me for a few days. So I wondered what I should do with some of the bottles left over. So I figured I’d do a little project with one of my bottles. Step 1. Take an old Fat Tire Ale Bottle and…
On Saturday morning I test rode the new Motobecane Fly Pro. The best way to describe this bike is….FAST! The bike only weighs 23lbs, which means you can get going pretty quickly. I’m so used to bikes that weigh 30+ pounds, so when I got on the Fly Pro, it was a major treat. The…
