I have built trail for 10yrs, 6-7 volunteer and 3 professionally, and it was fantastic! Currently I'm building in ground swimming pools which is pretty similar, but still building on the side at Red Clay Playground. I'm an old dog trying to learn some new tricks, dirt jumping!

Bluegrass Launches New Legit Helmet
Still can’t beat a 661 comp.... hell, if it was $100 I’d still consider buying it over the comp, but $250, that’s half a shock or at Leary getting one pushed....

The Evolution of Kona Bikes: Part 2 - Video
@isaacascadia: Mine was/is tan, its currently sitting under my brother in laws bed, because he hasn't built it up yet... I did everything from 15ft drops to urban assault to DH on that bike, it was a beast! Its also the same bike that fell off my car at 60mph, bounced twice on the highway and all that was wrong was a bent pedal, I rode if for another 5 years after that!

Here's My Zerode Taniwha Test Bike - Tell Me What You Want to Know
I hate climbing, does it not suck as bad on this thing? It’s the sexiest bike on the market imo, but at that price point it’ll only ever be a pipe dream for me.... Oh also, fuck derailleurs, I hate them with a passion, so this bike would fix that! That is all

East Bound and Down: Chattanooga, Tennessee
@kjjohnson: Its a heckuva lot steeper than this too, I redid this turn back a couple years ago anticipating the "pro line" would be nearest the tree over the top of the root and diving into the corner. Sure enough!

Randoms: One More Lap Around North America's Best Bike Expo - Sea Otter 2017
RST can do that price point, because they have been making the big names forks for a long time! I'm excited that they're finally doing a high end line and intend to go that route on my next fork purchase. On my radar right now are X-Fusion, RST, and SR Suntour, they're the "cheaper options" but I feel like its because they're more realistic about the actual price point vs the big brands who are just making you pay for the name.

@bizutch: so your definition of dual slalom is what? exactly like the course at the Sea Otter? How long is it? What kind of elevation do you need for that kind of race?
