The other night, myself along with Khoala, Lady P and our friend Jonny, were out on a nice evening ride through the Fullerton Loop. About mile 1.5, Jonny noticed he was having some shifting issues.

I know that we’ve seen photos of Obama riding a Trek Hybrid with his family, but what if he and Romney were seen doing some cool stuff like downhill, Super D and etc? I know when George W. was mountain biking, people loved the fact he seemed relate-able and heck he wasn’t half bad at…

100% IS BACK!!!! If your as old as I am you will remember 100% from back in the 80’s and 90’s. It was basically stickers and shirts and you would see the fastest MX riders (Bob Hannah, Rick Johnson, David Baily) with this logo on their bikes and helmets. I knew the name was back…
