Video: Sami Gowdy - Always Having Fun on Two Wheels
I had the pleasure to ride with Sami and friends from San Diego several years ago on their way up to Crankworks Whistler. I was impressed by his riding skill, but was even more impressed by his lack of ego and genuine friendly personality. It's great to see him again here on the front page of pinkbike. MTB could use more guys like him.

Jared Graves Hit by Car, Shatters Kneecap & Breaks Foot
Everyone I personally know who rides or used to ride a lot of road including myself has had a collision with a car at least once, some more serious than others, but it still scares me. I do still ride road occasionally but stick to the quiet back roads where cars are few and far between.

So good to see him ride, it's almost therapeutic.

Meet The All New Transition Smuggler
Can't help but notice the geometry and weight of this frame in size small is almost identical to my medium 2016 patrol carbon frame. Steeper seat angle and a little less travel but that's about it. Almost identical wheelbase. And I kind of prefer the 27.5 wheels on the old patrol as a 2nd bike for jump lines at Duthie. Glad I kept the old frame, seems like a new model again!

@jason475: Thanks for all you do. I really do appreciate our first responders. It's definitely one of the hardest jobs in healthcare.

@dirtyburger: So this guy can’t get off the couch and enjoy the great outdoors without an ebike? Wow what did we ever do before without them? I’m all for freedom, but freedom without responsibility isn’t real freedom, like the freedom to be terribly obese in your 30’s. Around 42% of Americans are obese now, up from 30% just a couple decades ago. Our healthcare system is overburdened by this. I’m a physician so I see it daily. But hey maybe strapping motors on bicycles will help, And I’m not talking about the elderly or disabled here. This gentleman was neither. And the climb was not steep, my 6 year old did it easily.

@Cord1: that’s why I said I guess it’s better he’s out doing something than not. But maybe he should just pedal a regular bike, no?

The other day there was a guy in the trailhead parking lot who looked just plain unhealthy. He was very obese and was smoking a cigarette. I’m guessing he was in his 30’s but he had that homeless guy unhealthy complexion that made him look old. I figured he was just hanging out waiting for someone. But a little while later he passes me on the climb on his ebike. Sure I guess it’s better he’s out doing something than not, but I couldn’t help but wonder if the motor was an enabler in his case to continue his unhealthy lifestyle…to have his cake and eat it too, literally.
