Just Kidding! We definitely didn’t have Moe and his moves, but we did have a local trail that demands to be explored. This place definitely has a few challenging & fun sections that we could spend a few hours riding over and over again. On top of this, after riding those challenging sections, we were…
This Memorial Day Weekend Joe, Priscilla, our friend Christine and I did some riding at a couple places. Our first destination was Fontucky to ride the world famous Southridge XC course. What’s great about Fontucky is that this place has a XC course, DH course and a 4X section. Nationals are held here every year…

It’s not quite summer yet on the calendar but the plants on the trail beg to differ. Just a few short weeks ago RL was playing peek-a-boo with the camera by hiding in the overgrown mustard weeds that had invaded our local trails. Lance was riding off onto some hardpacked singletrack with his Vassago amidst…
Since I work about a mile from the Aliso Woods trail head, I went ahead and did my weekly after work ride through it. The first climb, Cholla is pretty tough that includes steep switch backs, and a rock garden. On my way up Cholla I tried to maneuver around a pot hole like thing…
Greg “H-Ball�? Herbold of SRAM took a few minutes of his precious time to share with us how Avid’s new brake, the Elixir, works. Moe videoing Elixir Elixir is sleeker than the Juicys A cutout of the Elixir to demonstrate the action inside the reservoir
