  • Taking a Shot at Shooting
    So the pictures that are coming out of our regular rides seem to be getting better and better with each ride. Somehow the bar has really been stepped up a notch lately, and I am pretty stoked about how great they have gotten. So on a beautiful day like today…when I am not able to ride because of a stupid head cold and congestion…I thought I would give a couple...

  • Ventana El Terremoto 6.0 – My Ride
    It was only a matter of time before I blogged my sled. I am actually surprised it took this long quite honestly. Built by Sherwood Gibson of Ventana Mountain Bikes USA, this in one of the highest quality bikes I have ever owned. As my riding style started to change…so did my bikes. I ended up needing something that could handle more of a beating than what I had...

  • Cane Creek Reserve 110
    So what does a 650.00 headset look like? Here it is…the Cane Creek Reserve 110 headset. So what do you do with a handmade, precision-machined titanium, inlaid with maple or mahogany headset? You put them on the custom handmade bikes at the NAHBS show. This thing is amazing.Luckily I got to put my hands on one in the Bent Creek parking lot before one of our...
