Bicycle Tricks

We are inundated with smoke and riding anywhere near here is not recommended due to paticulates in the air. So, instead of riding my bike I’m thinking about bike riding and looking at some stuff from earlier in the year. So, here are a couple of short videos for your viewing pleasure.

This first one is from my Bachelor Party Weekend in Southern Utah. This was a fun little section on the Little Creek Mesa trails.

After I returned from my honeymooon I joined a friend in Big Bear to do some lift-assisted riding and we tried to find all the stunts we could. I’m not sure they are on the trail maps, but they sure were fun. The first is a nice log ride. It took me two tries to ride the log, but my dismount was lacking. Oops.

 

The final one is a little log jump that was set up at the start of another trail. It was pretty fun. I like getting air between my tires and the ground.

I hope everyone else is getting out and riding their bikes.

Cheers,

24 Hour races.

McDWe just did the Moab 24 Hour race. It was pretty fun. Now we are thinking about the 24 hours in the Old Pueblo. Anyone have any thoughts about these two races? I know JaphyRider has done both. I just saw this picture of him at The Old Pueblo.

Looks like love to me.

Bike Riding St. George Style

goosberryHey all,

I’ve been running low on the radar for a while, busy with school, work and wedding planning. But, I have been riding. Last weekend I was in Southern Utah enjoying some Slickrock. Here is a link to some of the photos I took.

Enjoy.

Hitting the trails instead of the slopes!

While the rest of you were getting all kinds of snow I was out on my Vulture having fun. These shots are from a great ride that I did with some friends last weekend in the hills above Palm Desert.

Cruising through the cactus.

It did involve some soft stuff though. Unfortunately it was sand. First we had to ride down through it.

Down through the wash.

Then we had to ride and walk up the next one. It was a couple of miles and about a thousand feet of elevation gain. It wasn’t too bad, but it wasn’t that fun either.

Fortunately it lead to even more great single track. Sometimes you do have to earn your turns, I guess.

It was so much fun I think I’m going to go back in a few weeks.
