Hey Lee I need help pinning it. I don’t use a watt meter, just cadence. Can’t get above 200. Is it my bike set up, my position or what? My husband can get to 215 on my bike. What to do? I’m in week 10 of Pump up the Base, which I love by the […]
Here’s a nice note from last weekend’s high school MTB coach training in Utah. If you get into your wife’s yoga, maybe she’ll get into your biking!
Yesterday I hit a personal record for sprint power — stoked! — but the extreme level of stoke got me thinking: Why are numbers so appealing?
I just finished week 5 of the Prepare to Pin It training program, and my power improvements are shocking. If you’re into numbers, you have to see this.
Dear Lee, I’ve noticed two styles of keeping one’s head while cornering. Let’s see two examples on Pinkbike: Brian Lopes – with his head more or less in-line with the body Jared Graves – with his head almost always perpendicular to the ground: Is it just a matter of style and habits, or is there […]
Hi Lee, The Sea Otter Classic dual slalom is coming up. 2012 was my first year and it was a blast–I am looking forward to 2013.

Too bad I learned this when my 10-year domain registration expired, but everything’s working again and all is good. 10 years ago I had some bike stories to tell, so I whipped up a little site for my friends Now I have almost 40,000 friends each month. Thanks everyone for your support! Big things are […]
Hi Lee What do you think about the Enduro 29er vs Stumpjumper 29er in regard to the chainstay and head angle. The Enduro has got a 2cm shorter chainstay and a slacker head angle. What are the diffrences? Is the Stumpjumper geometry better for uphill and the Enduro better for the downhill? Looking forward to […]
Here’s a good way to spend a minute on the trainer, road or trail.
Hey all, the Pump Up the Base and Prepare to Pin It training programs are now available in both ebook and print formats. Check ’em out: Pump Up the Base Prepare to Pin It Hot from the printer. This is always exciting!
After rocking the Pump Up the Base program, I’ve been working the Prepare to Pin It training program for about a month now, and I’m seeing even more pedaling power — with less punishment!
