Giant Dream Intern Contest - A Little Less Conversation: A torn muscle and a riding addiction are not a good match so I had to do something else then ride my bike this summer, so this is what I did instead. When I heard about this contest three days ago I decided to go to Åre and shoot a video with my mate Philip Lundman. Enjoy.

Tales From the Soil with Nico Vink - Episode 5: After Nico Vink fractured his wrist in episode 4 of Tales from the Soil he needed a little time to rest. Now he's back on it and fiending for some hard lines. He finds them in the French alps at the Chatel mountain bike park in Portes du Soleil. The Chatel bike patrol team has been working hard on the park this season and they have come up with some sick lines and jumps. One of Nico's favorite lines was called 'la serpentine'. The trail has an amazing flow and is really mellow but when Nico rode it fast there was suddenly a bunch of new lines and obstacles to get creative with. It was like a different trail altogether! After la serpentine Nico transitioned to some of the black trails that are more downhill style with loads of steep root sections. For a guy rehabbing a gimpy wrist Nico is KILLING it.

SO HAPPY to see pink bike posting the video about the colorado river. Water is a huge issue in arizona but no one seems to care. I see more pools in tucson than anywhere else, there are golf courses every where and tucson water seems to really like how much money they make off selling water. The river is going to dry up in close to a hundred years but i guess thats ok right because we won't be around to see it happen(at least that is ever ones attitude).
if i could have a dollar for every time pinkbike promised "the best bmx you'll see" on the BMX film in movies for you monday.... well shit I'd probably have enough dollars to buy one of those tweaky little deals by now
I remember riding with Reynolds back in the day t Sayreville and Woodbridge parks and being blown away at how good he was. Dude is the best out there doing it miles ahead of everyone.
Shame to see schladming has been given the bike park treatment , looks really good fun but what happened to the crazy tech woods and the open piste sections ?
so...
remind me why we need 20mm axles, 200mm sus, 2.5 tires, 650b, dropper posts, and xx1 to have fun?
Props though, i would be so scared to snap the bars or anything else for that matter XD
Run?
Get an infection?
Reach a higher state of being?
Tell me!
This could be life changing stuff...
