Hi Lee, My name is Gavin, I emailed you with some questions about mountain biking a few years ago and I have another question for you now. I have been much more serious about mountain biking the past few years, and I bought myself a 2016 cannondale habit just after I emailed you last. I […]
Yesterday I did two rides, both on the same trail but each with its own group and pace. The difference in experience was striking.

Some background info (again): I’m […]
Most mountain bikers have heard of pump tracks. Many have ridden one at their local bike park. With the right skills, you can fly around these dirt rollercoasters with ease. But did you realize that those same skills are immensely valuable on nearly any trail? Pumping the trail on your mountain bike makes riding so much more […]

Before I tried them, my response was “I don’t need no help. My pedal stroke is awesome. Those are for people who suck […]
