This trail is not really suited for riding, it was probably in better shape many years ago. Erosion has taken its toll and the trail is now one big rut. It is so rutted out on some spots that my handlebars were at risk of hanging up on the sides (not from the brush, but […]

I run a short loop near my home several times each week. It’s a 5-mile loop that takes me into Test Tracks and down the Star Wars trail (a local favorite). I have been riding this a LOT, and I feel confident on the trail. I’ve learned it’s twists and turns. Well, confidence can be […]

This was a mellow roll through the Slickrock trail in Moab, Utah. I had a few hours to kill on my way to Park City, and Park City was expecting rain, so this seemed like a great place to get a few miles in along the way.

A long ride down 7 miles of singletrack at Missionary Ridge near Durango, Colorado. This trail starts out smooth and shady, but ends with a loose, rocky downhill that becomes more challenging as the rider descends. Overall, it was a great day and a great ride. The descent was jarring, but it was still lots […]

I love my Yeti SB150. It was originally purchased as a bike I could keep in Colorado, with the other rides living in California. But we moved to Durango in January, so this bike has turned into my primary ride. It is perfect for the rugged, dusty terrain that surrounds our awesome town. As a […]
