8 weeks has come and gone. During these 8 weeks Vince and I worked pretty hard on losing weight. Not only did we both benefit, but the City of Hope also benefited from our little contest. You can see the total monies raised on the right hand column. —–> Vince and I both agreed that…

MtnBikeRiders.com and a few friends rode Bonelli Park. in San Dimas Ca. If you remember, this was the race where Priscilla, Jeremy, and Joe Solancho all placed on the podium. It’s a pretty short, but brutal course with steep climbs and fast descents. This time around we rode the trail backwards. Keep in mind that…
We just took recent delivery of the Swiss Bike TX. What makes this one unique is the fact it can fold. Basically it eliminates the needs for a roof or hitch rack since you can transport it in your car’s trunk or backseat. Usually when we get bikes delivered, they come in this mondo long…
Who: Ryders Eyewear on their “Chill” Collection sunglasses: When the adrenaline isn’t pumping, we like to talk about the times when it was, or the next time that it will.

This was a fun filled weekend of riding. I rode both days making trips to a popular Orange County trail – El Moro and my local trail – Coal Canyon. Saturday: I headed out to El Moro bright and early for a solo ride. It’s been awhile since I’ve been here. Last time out w/the…
Both Saturday and Sunday, I had a chance to ride the Sette Reken 69er conversion bike. Here’s a few thoughts. Riding the Sette Reken as a 69er was definitely a great experience. This frame has proven it self to be versatile and reliable. The frame has been my single speed rig for about 6 months…
I took a note from our very own Jack “Ghost Rider” Sweeney’s article about home made tools. But rather than following his steps whole heartedly, I kinda ghetto-fied it and just used this 2″ PVC pipe cut to about 10″ long. I needed to set a crown race on one of my forks this morning…
