National Makes Top 10 List

July 16, 2010

Jeff Corwin’s Top Mountain Biking Trails in North America.

National makes the list. Can you guess who the National rider is? I was contacted a few months ago and asked to provide some footage of National. I gave them tons of stuff including helmet cam footage and these two clips are what they used: the steps [...]

Hawes: The Whole Enchilada

May 24, 2010

Hawes All

20 miles all on Hawes. A great way to spend the mid morning. 64 degrees at 9:30 am on May 24. Three hours to cover 20 miles and it was only 74 when I finished. Unbelievably cool weather for this time of year.
Riding these miles was good for me. It reminded me [...]

620 Ridgeline

From 620 Ridge

620 Ridgeline at EveryTrail
For lack of knowing its official name (if it even has one yet), this trail, the 620 Ridgline, shall be know as the Bees Knees. Why, because there is a huge beehive you have to pass on the climb up. I didn’t see a swarm or anything but those bees [...]

Vids for the day

April 5, 2010

No better way to start the day than a early morning road spin, breakfast, virtual mountain biking at South Mountain, then virtually insane dream skiing. Awesome videos for a Monday morning.
Thanks RidingRiot for the sweet SoMo action.

Thanks FeedTheHabit for posting up this vid from Candide Kamera

Gila View to Mine Drop

April 1, 2010

Gila View-National-Mine Drop at EveryTrail
Another exploratory ride out in West South Mountain. I just really love that place. I rode up the new Gila View Trail (I’m not even sure it’s called the Gila View trail, that’s just what I’ve heard) from 17 Ave. There’s no lot or parking yet, just a dead end. The [...]

From East Mesa Epic

Yesterday was a triumph for me on the bike. Hawes to Peralta trailhead. 60 miles, sunrise to sunset in the saddle. A direct route would have been about 45, but I wanted to push myself so I added a few trails [...]

Focus Crit

March 21, 2010

My road buddy was racing the Focus Criterium yesterday so I took my film crew (kids) and headed out to see what these crits are all about… Man, was it cool to watch the cyclists fly by so fast. My buddy did really well. Watch the vid to see some of the action.
Warning: Only [...]

PMP Hairball Loop

March 10, 2010

The AZSF Hairball Night ride is going on right now. I really wanted to ride it with the gang, but without lights I opted for a daytime ride. Glad I did. That trail would be crazy at night! Props to all who adventure down all that gnar with just enough lumens to make out a [...]

If You Like Piña Coladas…

March 9, 2010

I planned a sweet lunch ride for today to include some new trails out in west South Mountain. DCX, Ruins, National, Mine Drop… had the makings for some sweet blooming singletrack, steep HAB climbing and wicked loose descending.
But as I got closer and closer to the TH the imminent downpour turned to plain downpour. [...]
