Haven't updated the site for a while but it was because I was out riding last weekend. Had the chance to ride some of the finest trails in the Wilson Creek area of Pisgah so I took off with Ed and Michael on Saturday. More...

After work I was actually driving home when I spotted some people on bicycles. Realizing that this is a rare thing in Wilmington, I decided to park and check it out. Of course I had my bike with me. I rarely go anywhere without it. More...

I was going to post the video of the Critical Mass ride but I wanted to get this out first.
You could read the desperation in the professor's letter that was posted to the site today. We rode there last week after the hailstorm, which turns out was quite foreboding after all. More...

Great race today. Special thanks to Austin and Steve for organizing it and everyone who helped make it possible. The event was first class. Hard for me to believe that we're actually holding mountain bike races right here in Wilmington. More...

The trails were covered in bits of leaves which gave them a nice green tint, I guess in honor of Earth Day. According to Randy it had hailed for like a half hour the night before and shredded the leaves on the trees. More...

The increase in the number of people mountain biking in Wilmington over the past year or so has been phenomenal thanks to having a legal place to ride. And now we are working on getting more trails established in our area leveraging our success at Blue Clay. More...

Clip from upcoming Pisgah video. This is the technical rock section of Bennett Gap. This is a really technical trail but is seasonal, so it's only open from Oct 15 to Apr 15. Good stuff though.
I got back and my bike was broke. More...

"First they ignore you. Then they laugh at you. Then they fight you. Then you win."
- GandhiLately I've been thinking, what do these group rides accomplish, and why do they cause so much controversy?
After all, they are basically just a bunch of people riding bikes on the road. More...

Finally the video from the race. I only rode part of the course during the race, so I plan to go back and do a complete loop for another video, but I think this one turned out pretty good. See what you think. More...

I finally finished uploading a bunch of photos of the race. I was given two DVD chock full of photos, a whopping 1045 images. I chose 119 to upload. I think next time we just pick the best 10 to 20 and call it a day. More...

Just got back from Pisgah on Sunday. Since it will likely be a while before I get the Pisgah video edited, here's a teaser clip of Steve taking a bath in a stream.

I haven't gotten hold of the photos yet, and I'm still working on the video (I only took video at the race). So at the very least I should give you a preview of what's on the new video. So here are some video stills I captured. More...

It rained something fierce the night before, and even drizzled before the start of the race, but that would not deter us from holding the first ever mountain bike race at Blue Clay. We made history today. More...

Last weekend was another work day at BC. I was trying to get over the flu and strep throat so I didn't help out. I rode instead, because I hadn't ridden the course in weeks and wanted to try to ride the sickness out of my system, or at least outrun it. More...

So my sister visited Portland, Oregon recently. She said it was vacation, but who goes to Portland for vacation? I think it was to check it out as a place to live. So I asked her to report on just how bike friendly it is, because I am always hearing about how bike friendly Portland is -- the bike friendliest city in the country, etc. More...

Steve sent me this the other day of his brother Andrew biking on a frozen lake up in Rochester. When I lived in NY, I did the same thing. When things got frozen, that didn't stop me from mountain biking. More...

Wednesday I actually made it out to Blue Clay for a bit. I had my big bike with me which I didn't really get to ride on Sunday. Since I've been riding the 29er, the RFX seemed so sluggish now. I couldn't ride it. More...

Here's a video clip from Blue Clay on Sunday when Daniel and I were putting up signs. I missed a good crash by Brian as he went off the small drop the normal way.
