Teaching last week in Marin
Student/ripper Christopher Kelly sent these photos from clinics he attended last week in Marin. Thanks dude.
Everything to help you ride stronger and better.
Spreading the braaap gospel
I’m in the Cabella’s parking lot in Reno (gotta check out the aquarium with the largemouth bass — so rad), taking care of work and saying “Whew!”
It’s been a heck of a two weeks:
Video from Sunday’s SoCal high school pump session
We built the track Friday and part of Saturday. By Sunday it was all about teaching and riding.
Sweet video by Stephen Messer.
There’s a ton more photos and videos from the day; this sums it up beautifully.
Riding the SoCal high school pump track
After yesterday’s work, all we had to do today was shape. And ride. Did I say ride?
Let’s rock a clinic in California
Hey all, I’m heading to California for two weeks of pump track building and skills teaching, and a slot opened up. Who wants to rock some clinic action?
Here are some options:
Monday, Jan. 24: SoCal
Tuesday, Jan. 25: SoCal or Norcal
Wednesday, Jan. 26: NorCal
First to confirm gets it.
I can meet you and/or your crew at a local spot for some skills, drills and on-trail kung fu. This is always super fun, and I guarantee it will blow your mind! Clinics include signed books (BMX or mountain).
If you’re interested, please email me right away, and we’ll work out a time and place.
Rock!

Training works, it really works
It’s been about a year since I officially switched into pedaling mode, and I’m seeing a 20% increase in my climbing fu. I guess kids and work are no excuse to suck.
Word of the day: psoai
Cool little word that’s important to bike riders.
Riding the LeMond Revolution trainer
In my increasingly structured cycling life, the exciting event is my new LeMond Revolution trainer. LeMond says it feels more like real road riding than other trainers.
Let’s see.
Slipping into the flow
Yesterday I rode the Stumpy on trail for the first time in six weeks. Since then it’s been hard training, a few sessions on the Enduro, way too much work and the kind of stress that makes decent men into jerks and me into something worse.
4×10 frozen garage style
Mayhem prevented me from attending this week’s PowerMax indoor training session at the Boulder Center for Sports Medicine, but I had some fun in the frozen garage.
With flat pedals!
Paul Bunyan riding
Last weekend’s Left Hand Canyon OHV downhill training session featured special guest stars, some sturdy hiking and a snowy descent down North Red Trail.
With video!
What a difference 10 rpm makes
In this week’s PowerMax indoor training session at the Boulder Center for Sports Medicine, we did virtual intervals with a Canadian time trail champion, and I felt the easy sweetness of higher rpm.
