Underexposed: How 4 Okanagan Communities Are Rewriting the Rules of BC Trail Advocacy
@sanchofula: I've always been curious about the northern interior of Washington. It looks like it also has lots of good riding.

Underexposed: How 4 Okanagan Communities Are Rewriting the Rules of BC Trail Advocacy
I've lived here my pretty close to my entire life, and have ridden mtb here since around 1990. This area has always been an amazing area to ride with so many choices. To make it even better, the people that are doing the trail advocacy and maintenance are doing better than ever. This means there are more legal trails, that are in better condition than ever, that are easy to find if you're a visitor, or just a local looking to change things up. The Okanagan has never been better. So, as always, please don't come.

First Ride: OneUp Launches $599 Aluminum Wheelset
@bodhibruh: Been thinking of buying a Phase 30 wheel as part of an experiment. Do you think there's much weight penalty over a carbon wheel. Or at least, that it's neglible?

Throwback Thursday: 'Life Cycles' - The Greatest Mountain Bike Movie Ever Made?
Maybe not the best ones out there, but honorable mention should go to the Earthed series. Some of the best music to watch an mtb film to.

@wburnes: Bigger wheels are harder to keep moving up steep hills. For me at least.

Pinkbike Poll: What Bike Technology Advancements Do You Dream About?
Been riding mtb for over 30 years. Bikes are better than they’ve ever been. Also, my 57 year old body looks at 32” wheels and thinks, “How the f*&k do I pedal those up a steep hill?!?!” I think I’m almost done with “innovation” lol.

Marin Four Corners steel touring/gravel bike
$1100 CADMarin Four Corners bought to dip my toe in gravel riding. It’s just not my thing. Bike has 10-15 rides only. Cable disc brakes, triple ring Shimano Sora groupset. Not sure on the weight but these bikes are made for durability, not lightness. The bike is super comfy and would be a great commuter also.

32" Wheels Aren't Going to Save the Bike Industry
Simple take. It won't work for me at 5'11", 56 y/o and barely enough power to move a 29'er up a steep incline. So I won't buy it. Decision made.
