As most of you already know, Mountain Biking by 198 has been preparing for a move to Bike198.com. We have started packing and labeling boxes, wrapped up the delicates and…pretty soon…we’ll start to move the TV’s and valuables before the movers get here to finish off the job. For a long time now – since the start of the blog – Mountain...

I blasted this email out to the MTB by 198 newsletter subscribers, but I also wanted to publish this update here to keep those of you that haven’t checked your email in the loop. I know what you are thinking…October has come and gone and I still don’t have the free eBook, Ramped Riding! I was the one that set the October deadline, so I felt the need to...

I wanted to take a second to recap what we have accomplished on Mountain Biking by 198. Yes…we…without you guys reading this blog…I am nothing but a crazy guy talking to himself, so we are responsible for the benchmarks that are hit on MTB198. While I was away on vacation for my first wedding anniversary, Mountain Biking by 198 surpassed 1,000,000 pageviews....

The weather had been terrible the days preceding, so there was no one back in the downhill/freeride...

It’s official…Mountain Biking by 198’s first blog post was on March 18, 2008. What started off as a simple blogger based thought gathering page for mountain biking related content, ended up being full out cycling related blog and 374 articles later…we are growing like crazy! I would like to think that it is because I have an extremely cool online...

This weekend, a group of us are heading up to Pisgah National Forest for some true southeast, all-mountain riding on some of the best trails the eastern United States has to offer. Pisgah National Forest, nestled in the mountains of North Carolina, is known for dozens of mountain epics all within miles of each other, and this makes Pisgah a destination site for eager mountain...

Late last night I posted a quick blurb on my personal twitter account about Cocotte Equipement sending in a sickening bag for us to review! The Cocotte-Equipement “Fred” Messenger Bag is by far one of the sexiest bags I have ever unboxed! Initially, I was thrilled to unpack this perfectly stitched bad-boy from the corrugated fiber-board it was enclosed in...

It is finally here! Spring…that glorious time of the year where we get to enjoy extended daylight hours and perfect riding weather. As far as I am concerned…Day Light Savings Time should be an official mountain biking holiday. Finally, I can have incredible mountain and road biking after work without the aid of lights. During this time of year, we start up...
