Hola, instructor to the Stars, I am replacing my tires on the trusty Stumpy 29. Currently running a Purgatory 2.2 in the front and Ground Control 2.1 in the back. The back tire needs replacing, so, I bought another Purgatory, thinking I would try that on the back also. I like the Ground Control just […]
Lee – I’ve seen from your site that you used to spend some time on the dark side. So, no more moto for you? Is that a function of personal choice, or just not having a dirtbike to ride? Ken
Our friend and kung fu student Judy Freeman won a big one: last weekend’s Subaru Cup Pro XCT in Wisconsin. In this post-race interview she is stoked — and she gave our skills work a nice plug. Thanks Judy. Keep ripping it up!
Today 13-year-old Chase Willie (proud younger brother of national DH champ Alex Willie) joined the legion of fools that hikes and rides DH at Left Hand Canyon OHV Area. Chase and I have done some work on the BMX and mountain bikes; today was our first day on the downhill sled.
On Saturday I enjoyed a fantastic XC/DH ride in Vail, CO. It’s great to see so many civilians out having fun on their bikes. I sure had fun too.
Boulder Channel 8 is running a series of spots promoting Boulder as a bike town. I did this piece on bike selection and setup. Wow, am I this fidgety when I teach?
Last weekend Young Skywalker won the national downhill championships — YES! NATIONAL CHAMPION! — and next month he’s heading to Worlds. Yesterday we hit Keystone for a good, old fashioned DH tuneup.
For those of you with solid core skills, I’m stoked to offer Level 2 Air classes at Valmont Bike Park. Aug. 25, Sept. 5 and Sept. 8.
With the Winter Park Enduro this weekend, yesterday XC champ Heather Irmiger and I worked on pumping corners. This skill builds the base of braaap.
Watch world champion 15X BMX racer Collin Hudson tear up the lower Valmont pump track on my P.3. I handed him the bike, he took 0.1 seconds to adjust to the suspension and wheels, then he rocked these amazing laps.
I am so proud of Young Skywalker. Yesterday –when it counted! — he found the perfect flow: “There were no bobbles or moments,” Alex said. “It was just another run (but I’ve never pedaled that hard or gone that fast!).” Also check out: The 2011 season starts now 7:1 and stoked Paul Bunyan riding Dialing […]
Hi Lee. I’ve been desperately trying to ride our local pump track for a few weeks already. I’ve tried everything I can but don’t seem get anywhere near anything that resembles what I see on the net. What am I doing wrong here? Really hope somebody can help. I’ve resorted to going public with a […]
