EDR World Cup Series Launches Open Racing Category at Every 2024 Round
Race (and support) your local/regional Enduro series, and bring as many friends as possible into the fold. That's where the fun is anyways.

Video: Balance Bikes Are The Ultimate Way To Learn - How To Bike with Ben Cathro
Potentially unpopular opinion: training wheels are great for a week, after the kids already know how to balance from a balance bike. Gets the kids used to the pedaling motion (not intuitive at first), then you take them off and they pedal away like rockets. My son was riding trails with me super early (like 3 y.o.), and using training wheels for a few days helped us get to that point faster for sure.

Field Test Review: 2024 Commencal Meta 5 SX - Supercross for a Reason
I had to use a Wolf Tooth B-RAD on my meta TR to fit even a mid-sized bottle. It doesn't seem to be a big concern for Commencal, but it is frustrating.

First Look: Thule’s New Epos Bike Rack
This is for the uniformed consumer that walks into an REI and asks for a bike rack. I don't see many informed mountain bikers choosing this.

Kids Ride Shotgun Announce Magura-Equipped Off Road Balance Bike
Was about to complain about the pricing relative to a Commencal Ramones, but factoring in the cost of the added brake it's a wash. Nice option!
