So…my wife comes to me this week with a proposition. This year, for Valentines Day, she wants to go ride together! My mouth almost hit the floor. No expensive dinner and flowers? No getting dressed up to go somewhere I really don’t want to? You really want to do what I want to do? Fantastic!
Before we get back to our regularly scheduled programming and start looking forward into 2009, lets take a second to look at some of the changes that took place in 2008. Over the course of the year, a lot changed in the mountain biking industry that was good and bad. Here are my winners and losers of 2008.
But it was late November, hunters still a week away didn’t pose any real danger now. Tom started slowly to reel in track on his wheel. The area looked different than he was used to. Autumn grabbed whole area into it’s hands, turning green into brown and hiding trails from the eye under deep layer of fallen leaves.
A year end summary of Mountain Biking by 198. It has been a huge first year for MTB by 198 and here are some of the highlights.
During the winter season, we are constantly on the lookout for different ways to stay involved while the weather is not cooperating. Your local work parties are an incredible way to get involved and expand/maintain your favorite local trail. Trail work is done on a constant basis, but work parties are structured much differently than normal maintenance.
Act now! Only one week and 1 day left in the Mountain Cycle Fury frame contest! For complete details go to the contest article located here. All you have to do is talk about your favorite trail…Want to see what you are up against? Here are some excerpts from just some of the entries so far…
The winter months are always difficult for riders. The days are shorter, the weather is colder, the weather is more unpredictable…and when you add all of these factors together…that equals less riding. A rider that is not able to ride…is not happy.
Today is the start of a LONG series dedicated to one purpose…turning this seasoned mountain biker into a roadie. For a long time, I have been stressing the importance of cross training to improve your mountain biking skills and endurance.
Time for part 6 in the series, and this one is my favorite. Heavy bike training is the #1 way that I have become a better mountain biker in recent memory. The theory here is pretty simple. Have you ever seen a batter warming up in the on deck circle that is using a weight or second bat to get ready? This batter is warming up with heavier weight so when his time comes to step up to the plate…the bat feels lighter in his hands.
