/in /by leelikesbikesIn January our favorite soul-riding tough guy received a call from a major sports nutrition company, and now he’s muddying up Outside magazine.
Hanging with Mark Weir
/3 Comments/in /by leelikesbikesWTB tough guy Mark Weir only leads one kind of ride: the death kind. The climbs are long, steep and plural, and the descents require just as much strength and focus. His rides are so punishing, I know only a few people who have ridden with him more than once. When I visited NorCal in […]

Tour of California Day 6: Tunnel Trail, Santa Barbara
/in California, Riding/by leelikesbikesWhen Jim and I landed in Santa Barbara we dialed ourselves in at Motel 6 then mosied downtown to buy a trail map. The whole shopping scene was very shi-shi…with rich, beautiful women everywhere and a bakery for dogs.
Tour of California Day 5 – San Juan Trail
/1 Comment/in California, Riding/by leelikesbikesWhen you think of the greatest places to ride in California, southern Orange County usually doesn’t come to mind. I mean you’ve got your Downieville, your Lake Tahoe, your Mammoth and your, uh, San Juan Capistrano? Unless you’re a swallow, that just ain’t the place to visit.
Tour of California Day 4: Lower Rock Creek Trail, Bishop
/in California, Riding/by leelikesbikesI found Day 4’s route in the trail reviews section of www.mtbr.com. There are almost 6,000 reviews in there, a few of which are actually literate. From what I could tell, we were in store for nine miles of pure single track, with a drop of 2,000 feet through a variety of terrain.
Tour de California Day 3: Mammoth Mountain Ski Area
/2 Comments/in California, Riding/by leelikesbikesAfter hitting Mr. Toad’s in South Lake Tahoe, my buddy Jim Norman and I headed south toward Mammoth. The weather was perfect and since it was the week after Labor Day, the roads were empty. We cruised The Panzer along the eastern Sierra on Highway 395, past countless mountains and valleys, and made an excellent […]
Tour de California Day 2: Bonus Shuttle Down Sonora Pass
/in California, Riding/by leelikesbikesMy buddy Jim Norman and I recently took the DH and XC bikes on an adventure around California. After enjoying some sweet single track on Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride in South Lake Tahoe, we headed south toward Mammoth. This was the week after Labor Day, and there was zero traffic. The sky was perfectly clear, […]
Tour de California Day 1: Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride, South Lake Tahoe
/2 Comments/in Riding/by leelikesbikesIn the middle of September my buddy Jim Norman and I rode our own little Tour de California. In the past we’ve driven from the Bay Area to Crested Butte, Colorado for a week of riding. The Rockies are huge, but so is the drive out there. This year we decided to stay a bit […]
