We’ve had a heck of a time over here with health scares, hospital stays and 3x-a-week tests, but The Wife has held on, and it looks like we’re gonna make it to our Sept. 30 delivery date. A week from today, the world will contain two more little rippers! I’m pinned getting ready for them […]
Of all riding skills, braking probably gets the least attention. But it sure is useful. And, dare I say, it’s HOT! Here’s a preview from MMBSii. It shows some decent braking technique — and it shows how little space a decent braker needs to slow down.
Part of the continuing seat-tube-angle saga. With a sexy diagram.
Inspired by the discussion surrounding Why is a slack seat angle so rip-able?. With a diagram this time.
Hey Lee, I know what I like but don’t know why. I have been riding a few demo bikes and find the slack 71.5-72 seat angle to feel great and very rip-able. When I jump on the 73/74 deg angle it feels … off even with similar head angles and bb heights. Any reason why? […]
Last night Nick Simcik and I did a little ride/shoot on my new little trail. The conditions were steep, loose and very raw. We got a few shots for MMBSii, and we both learned something about the fine art of bike cornering.
… I did scratch a short trail into my yard. It’s short, steep and very technical. And it’s lined by cactus. Yesterday I rode 30 laps for about 60 minutes. Awesome fun so close to home. Today I spent most of the day at The Wife’s hair salon (she’s supposed to be on bed rest, […]
Yesterday’s backyard event in Canberra, Australia saw big names, tight racing and tons of excitement! (Did we mention the free beer?) As promised, here’s the report from Aussie Chris.
While certain people are in Australia racing the MTB Worlds, and the luckiest of them are rocking the nearby Pump Track Worlds, some of us are stuck at home working too much. Yesterday was one of those days, and I settled for figure-eight time trials in my driveway. Sad. But fun in a bike nerd […]
But alas, I’m rocking some enterprise commercial mortgage origination software. You can pin that too, but it ain’t the same!
Hello Lee, I hope all is well with you and your wife + kidlets!!! I’m thinking of getting into BMX and was wondering if you can take a look at the pic below and tell me if this bike is too long for me. I’d like to get the right size bike to start with. […]
This week the world’s best are competing at the UCI Mountain Bike World Championships in Canberra, Australia. That is awesome and I wish everyone well. But the real contest goes down Wednesday on a local backyard pump track. 30 top pros. 10 timed laps. $4,000 up for grabs. Game on!
