    E-bikes are a thing

    I don't see how me riding a Class 1 e-bike in Eco mode with a group of regular bikers should be illegal. Sigh

    What do you carry and is it too much?

    I carry a small first aid kit, a multi-tool, a wind/rain jacket and my phone. And I ride with people who have much more in their packs :)

    La Vuelta

    We were very lucky to see the Stage 8 finish in Zaragoza last week! Amazing to see these athletes up close - they are machines.

    Tariffs...what to make of them.

    This is reality now. There is no more value in decorum, and careful analysis and scholarship isn't cool. On the most fundamental level, I think this is appalling but they are just trying to stir the pot. I mean yeah - going to war on your own cities is INSANE but whether they announce it like...

    Do I even like this anymore?

    I know that feeling! Aside from what everyone else has said, try to embrace your current self as is. Focus on positive internal dialogue, it really matters. Congratulate your body on what you CAN do, and not what used to be. I fell out of love with MTB for a while (because I am slow, things...

    25-26 Ski and Snowboard Thread

    Zermatt is small so pretty much everything is close. There is an electric bus that runs every 20 mins connecting the tram, gondola and lift stations (there are 3 main "bases") and stops at various corners in the village. If you want to ski down to Cervinia and back, set out early on the gondola...

    1.25" hitch rack options?

    I have a gently used, light 1Up rack with 2" hitch for sale - I have 3 trays but since they all bolt off it can be used as a single. Not sure where you live. PM me if interested, I can send you details.

    25-26 Ski and Snowboard Thread

    Only 138 days until Winter. Not sure where to ski this season, might try to follow the snow or try something totally new (Taos? Tahoe? Mammoth?). Got the Ikon pass 25-26.

    It's 2025 Is an Emtb in your near future?

    Why can't people just make choices and have other people leave them be? You want an e-Bike, ride one. You don't? Then don't. Riding an e-Bike doesn't make you fat. Riding a regular bike doesn't make you skinny. One isn't morally superior to the other. Sheesh, there are enough real things to...

    It's 2025 Is an Emtb in your near future?

    Chiming in to say that I rode three Enduro-style parks on my Pivot Shuttle LT in Quebec - and never ran out of fun! The climbs were easy; the downhills were amazing. After getting used to the more power needed to brake, the stability and the get-it factor made every trail feel fricking fun. The...

    Tariffs...what to make of them.

    At this point, trying to meaningfully make something of the tariff issue is about as productive as taking Love Island seriously.
