On a lighter note, anyone else enjoy the Vanderham article on the front page?

That era of dudes I'd love to ride with, seem so chill.

The lap with Simmons and Vanderham looked awesome! Just two dudes playing bikes in the woods.

Exactly how I got started with all things bike. BMX in the streets then later MTB the river valley of Edmonton Alberta. Cool video, brought back some fond memories of my yutes.

The days when calling on your mates was a ride to their house not a WhatsApp.

Glory days cruising around on bikes making your own entertainment.

The days before cell, cable, internet. Just get out and live and trust. Definitely a time I reminisce about. Be home before dark. Ok.

We all experienced a good era. I am happy I grew up without mobile, internet, etc.

Went skiing yesterday, 70 cm of snowfall overnight and zero cell reception within an hour of the hill. I've found a new favorite place.

So I just learned that Gwyneth Paltrow is selling 100$ candles that smell like her ... um.... vagina. I’m going to stick with sandalwood.

I went skiing today and it kind of sucked. No snow at Tahoe recently.

Dude it's so bad. I didn't put a single day in in Feb. I'm hoping for a killer March or this will go down as the worst non injury season I've ever had. It's bullshit. Nothing on the horizon either.

I'm seeing some changes happening the end of next week I'm just hoping it results in more than 2 inches and a shit ton of wind.

I am probably the youngest one in this thread... And I am probably the biggest Ebike fan.. I honestly don't think I am buying a regular trail bike this year since I bough my Levo.

Yeah I am confused. Can I sell one for 100$ that smells like my junk after a long day in the saddle?

But. I got my new shitty snow skis. Got Kastle Fx85 in 173cm on closeout. I usually ski 180cm and 100mm. Silly fun. Stiff little buggers with plenty rocket to ski even shorter. Set them up with pivot 14 I had around. Hooligan skis.
