Strange day some of the singletrack was dry and dusty some of it covered in snow and the rest a river from snow melt http www.duncanphilpott.com

#87

Riding to coastal ridges on the Basque coast. It looks sketchier than it actually feels the trail is fast but you would have to be really really cock up to get over the edge. If you did then it would be a long tumble to a fast drowning

The Stop Online Piracy Act SOPA H.R. 3261 is on the surface a bill that attempts to curb online piracy. Sadly the proposed way it goes about doing this would devastate the online economy and the overall freedom of the web. It would particularly affect sites with heavy user generated content. Sites like PINKBIKE Youtube Reddit Twitter and others may cease to exist in their current form if this bill is passed. http sopablackout.org learnmore

Sideways. Nico Vink may not be a household name for free riding but he s been kicking around the World Cup circuit for a long time. And he can throw down a mean whip. Will that translate into Rampage glory You got me. But he s got a billy goat line up at the top that I want no part of.

I was lucky enough to sign onto a week with Big Mountain Tours with Stephen Matthews and Seb Kemp as Guides in Verbier and Zermatt. The mountains in Zermatt were really socked in during our first two days there but the clouds blew out and gave us the views that Zermatt is known for on the last day. Here client rider Peter Classen of North Vancouver was kind enough to crank out a lap for the camera with a background that to this day blows my mind.

The whole trail follows the edge of a deep gorge and it had been a bit scary sometimes when you were directly looking into the abyss hoping to get the turn. -

 i was wondering about it too and came to the conclusion that the rider is right above the landing, so he has no reflection

 He has a reflection, check out the algae carefully and you will see the orange bits.

 Hello. I am the photographer who took number 95. How is it possibly fake?

To save having to explain myself, just look at this photo in the link, which i took on the same day as the photo in question. Same jump, same rider, same bike, different angle.

Clearly #95 is a genuine shot
