MTBers can't jump, but climbers can???
|
By Steve Outing on 4/13/2007 on Steve Outing's blog We know that YourMTB.com members can jump -- when on their bikes. But what about off the bike? I'm not so sure... You see, we've got this funky contest going on, where we're giving away some cool schwag for the best photo of mountain bikers jumping (feet, not bike). Deadline for photos is April 30. But entries are, ummm, less than impressive. Here's the funny thing. Over at YourClimbing.com, which is YourMTB.com's sister site, we posted a similar contest. And the climbers are kicking your a**! |

Post of the Week: Going fast at Mammoth
|
This week's Post of the Week is a tribute to speed. We thought this photo by Stephen Hoelzel, of a racer on the slopes of the Mammoth resort in California, nicely embodied the rush of downhilling on a bike. For sharing his cool photo, we're sending Stephen this week's prize, a copy of Brian Lopes and Lee McCormack's great book, Mastering Mountain Bike Skills. We'd like you to be next week's Post of the Week winner. Simply post something cool to YourMTB.com and if it's the best, you win! |
A Great Start to a Summer of Riding
|
By TC guru on 9/7/2006 on TC guru's blog Every year I start my season with a trip to Moab, Utah with a good buddy, some camping gear, and a cooler of the best beer money can buy. This year was no different. In May I left my home in Colorado for a long and glorious weekend of camping and riding in Moab. Driving in a car for 6 hours can be torture on the mind. However, add a buddy that you’ve been great friends with for over 2 decades and the drive in a car becomes a ROAD TRIP! Topics of discussion included women, bikes, work, bikes, slapstick humor, bikes… etc. You get the point. The trip was a blur and we arrived in Moab around 1AM and started looking for a campsite. By 3AM we were fast asleep and dreaming sweet dreams under the starry sky. |
