It is here! It is wireless. It is tubeless. It is mileless. Dustless. Muckless. Mine is 26 inchs and almost ready for action. Stay tuned… DHL is holding Dave’s PowerTap 2.4 wireless tubless disc wheel hostage carting it all over the Western US making him grumpy. I let him stroke mine but...

Lime Kiln is a place in the Grand Canyon Parashant National Monument that has been calling for a while. The Grand Canyon Parashant National Monument is 30 miles south of St George and covers over a million acres. It is huge and remote. It has no food, supplies, camping, lodging, first aid etc. Nearest...

We went to Sedona, AZ for the SBFL last weekend. Lynda raced, I just rode. Chad warned that the first 10 miles were pretty harsh and rocky, but I read in the descriptions it also included the best views in Sedona. I set the Lev up all super squishy to soften the course…but wow was I [...]

Yesterday was one of those days, the kind where you’re blindsided faster than your reflexes can handle. So, after wrestling with multiple projects it was time to hit the trails for a bit. I haven’t felt this good on a bike since GLR ‘07, surely a couple hours on Barrel Roll will be...

The day after Rim Ride, Dave and I indulged our 2-Epic hearts and rode White Rim. The weather was wild all day. It is raining in this picture above but the sun was out. It made the fantastic views surreal. The section from White Crack to Murphy’s hogback was an hour long near white moment for ...

We’ve been looking forward to RimRide for a long time. The plan from day one was to ride it SS, not hard, and together. After Vision Quest, 1/2 of 2 Epic had a tendon injury that made riding SS impossible…there were a few weeks when we just didn’t know what we’d do. Gears? Skip...

Lynda and I decided to do RimRide together - as in stay together during the race. At the last minute we decided to go SS too. 32.19 for me, 34.20 for her. How’d it go? Well…beyond all expectations. We didn’t expect to be in the mix - we actually weren’t planning on putting down...
