Rocking with the BMA girls
If you want to hang out with lots of women (platonically), go to band camp or become a bike coach. Last week I did a fun clinic with 20 women from the Boulder Mountainbike Alliance.

Cornering drills for the twisty-turnies
/4 Comments/in Ask Lee, Skills/training/by leelikesbikesLee, On my p57 of my copy of MMBS is a pair of illustrations: “loading a turn” and “light between turns.” What do you recommend for drills for this?

Setting up a DS/4X suspension bike for trail riding

I got very little sleep last night. It’s a long drive. Lots of other work to do. I just didn’t […]
