My boy Zach is planning skills camps in Southridge Park in Fontana, Bootleg Canyon near Las Vegas and South Mountain in Phoenix. I taught Zach what he knows about teaching bike skills, but I have no involvement with these clinics, other than posting them here. Gotta spread the love!
Hey Lee, love your book! I’ve got a Dilemma going on right now, I’m in the market for a new fork but I’m stuck at a crossroads regarding price vs. travel vs. quality. I’ve got an ’05 Reign with 152mm rear wheel travel and I need a fork with a 20mm through axle to replace […]
Hi Lee, I have a question I was hoping you could answer. In a lot of the videos I’ve been watching lately, I notice racers cutting sharply across the lip of a jump. What and how are they doing? It seems they do this to keep low, how does this work? Thanks! Eric
As you might know, my wife Arlette (aka @b) had her left ACL repaired six weeks ago. That process really sucked! Her pain meds didn’t work, she got a severe infection, she got so dehydrated she needed an IV, and neither of us slept for a month. Yeah, it sucked, but we got through it. […]

Hey Lee, Quick question: I recently got my first disc-brake mountain bike and it rocks. I’m using cable brakes instead of hydraulic. Is there any special maintenance I have to do with disc brakes that I don’t do with rim brakes. Thanks, Alex
Whew! It’s Sunday evening, and it really wants to snow, and I just got back from a skills camp in Nathrop, CO. I just hosed down the bikes and plugged in the memory card. Here we go:
I’m taking off for this weekend’s camp at Darner’s ranch. I’m stoked to teach some skills, ride my bike and enjoy some Colorado fall. Stay tuned for a report.
Lee – Good day! I wondered if there was any science to the sizing of 29er frames. There does not appear to be much in the way of resources available on the subject and the manufacturers occaisionally list recommended rider sizes for frames but leave the fit to the Local Bike Shop. In looking at […]
Hi Lee, I am interested in purchasing a new DH race steed. I am a competitive expert racer and I was wondering if a 7-inch bike would be a major disadvantage on MSC and G3 racecourses. I am specifically looking at the Commencal Supreme DH, which I understand a few of the WC teams are […]
Mountain bike access on the revered Continental Divide Trail (CDT) is still threatened and IMBA needs you to take action BY FRIDAY OCT. 12. The CDT is a unique 3,100-mile route largely open to bikes and includes epic segments like the Monarch Crest Trail.
