Anyone else first think that "Bender Range" means the mountains were named after Josh Bender?

It's actually called the Bendor Range. Don't know how TNF / Sherpas got that one wrong. Also a 5min heli ride from town. Don't know what the tents are for.

Looks like such an awesome experience. Staying overnight, riding, shooting, camping. Livin the dream! Can't wait to see what else Matt and Mike come up with!

flaminx0r (Jun 5, 2013 at 9:23)

I read the title initially thinking it was going to be two guys exploring the limits and range of what 'Bender' has achieved on the bike. Looks awesome all the same!

Dally666 (Jun 5, 2013 at 20:49)

I'm starting to think the only thing steeper for these guys to ride will begin out of the back cargo plane at 20,000 feet.

syava26 (Jun 5, 2013 at 21:06)

bigburd (Jun 5, 2013 at 13:18)

Some say the bender range is strong enough to convert even the most hardcore of hartail riders into taking 8 inches in the rear...

alextevens (Jun 5, 2013 at 9:40)
