I recently picked up this Diamondback Wildwood Tandem off an ad from Craigslist on Tuesday. Team Racer, Joe Solancho and I had discussed entering the Mt Sac Fat Tire Classic XC Race in the Tandem Category. Only problem was we didn’t have a tandem on hand to do the race. So when this Diamondback became…
Technically he wasn’t bogarting it. But I thought the word was funny, the song is even better! But I’m happy to announce that I’ll be getting an opportunity to test ride/race the Airborne TAKA DH Bike. Team Racer, Art Aguilar has proven that you can get on the podium with the Taka. I’m hoping that…
