I’ll need to harness some kind of mythic power for 24 hours in the old pueblo, cause i certainly am not feeling it within. Got my niterider flight just in time thanks to Pyrofloptic. Rolling... »

My friend Jeff posted about this bike-loving band the Ginger Ninjas! Looks like they’re into loaded bike touring too! GINGER NINJA LIFESTYLE: “Walk our talk? Hell no, we RIDE it!” Sometimes the Ginger Ninjas tour on Xtracycle sport utility bicycles (SUBs) built to carry all their gear. Other times they strap their bikes to... »
Team Bacon Strip Wins GMRLR!!
TBS mobs the first annual Great Mount Rose Loop Race! Riding up Calahan Ranch Road to TheRestlessApe’s house Saturday evening I saw the glow over Mt. Rose. 14 hours earlier, from the other side of the valley, I’d seen the alpenglow on the Carson Range through a smoky haze as I rode out to... »

The amazing Bando demonstrates his feathery-light touch as he crosses the Incandescent Rocks WSA without even leaving FOOTPRINTS! More pics on Nevada Outside. Also, JW et.al toured Mt. Emma. Where is Mt. Emma? -M »
AZ RoadTrippin’!!!
After meeting El Garro I can understand why Fed Ex would be reluctant to insure his packages against damage. Steve’s opening technique is to bludgeon the box with his knuckles until it submits. Chris King has to wrap his headsets in bags of coffee beans to protect them from his awesome power. Here he... »
