Go forth and ride, then bring back pics

Final high elevation ride before the snow....of course, ended up in the dark

Baller morning spin. Didn’t see anyone which is surprising for hunting season.

Warm fall day here, rain most of yesterday kept me off single track. Glad to have some good Gravel roads nearby

I love the extreme variety of this page. So much good riding in so many different conditions.

Climbing trail at Mont Ste Marie in Quebec
They built switchbacks out of wood on the cliffside.

That's a fucking cool looking trail. Love those odd, outside of the box trails that people build.

From sunny hero dirt to gloppy freeze thaw and repeat. Assegai front and rear just for that extra oomph when you aren’t sure what the dirt is gonna do today. Shorty ready to go in the garageonce it stays muddy

For sure

Quebec seems to have some cool stuff. I came across this vid a while back, have always wanted to check this trail out. Skip ahead to 12:50

Sending the airbag jump on cx bike in Brownie costume during SSCXWCDGO on Saturday.

Next lap I got a bit squirrelly and the was someone on the landing and I got bounced to the dirt quite hard.



8 ribs and a AC separation….totally worth it. Most fun race I’ve ever done.

This is just a relatively small area and is not on the lists of "must ride" trails in Quebec. The downhills had lots of drops, rolls and jumps.

The west coast gets all the glory, but we have some incredible riding in the east.

^^ Agree on above. Think it's that our trails aren't generally as scenic, but often pack a punch technically with rocks/roots/downed trees.

Definitely not as scenic, generally speaking. There are great views, but you have to find or create an opening in the trees to see them.

North Mtn/Longdale Furnace is an exception. Under the right conditions, it's one of the prettiest rides I've done.

Quick trip down to St George this weekend to keep biking season alive. Beautiful on Gooseberry Sat despite the cold ass breeze, great times putzing around with friends. No biking pics, just scenic shots everyone who's ridden down there probably has:





Also, good food and solid naps were had:







The weather went to shit Sunday, partly cloudy with the occasional snow showers in Zion. We fled the mesa and took a lap on the Monkey. No pics (again) cause this is what it looked like as we got on the bike:



Not wanting to experience that trail in the rain or snow we had to haul ass out of there. Perfect conditions with sticky dirt, having the big bike was quite nice when picking the wrong line after not having been on the trail for a year. We did take a peek into Kong, it still looks completely insane but I can more or less wrap my head around the entrance now and I give myself a 50% chance of not falling off the spine right away.

Full on blizzard the second we hit the parking lot, by the time we got to Cedar City the bikes were encased in ice:



For anyone driving I-15 between StG and SLC I highly recommend a pit stop at The French Spot in Cedar City. Little hole in the wall French restaurant on Main St, they've been in Cedar a while and moved location last year. Glorious pastries (the macaroons are legit), great coffee, unreal sandwiches (on legit French baguettes). They can serve booze as well. The chef ran fancy establishments in Paris and NYC before landing himself in the middle of UT.

Thanks for the pics! How busy was the camping up top on the mesa?

Looks like a blast, but ouch. Heal up fast!

Pretty mellow. They had some rain so I think people stayed away. But seemed quiet for a holiday weekend to me. Moved over to Caliente now. Nice trails seems like they saw some serious rain here as trails are showing some erosion.

[evdog]

Cool. I want to get back to Caliente and check out the rest of Ella Mtn now that it's finished

My parents were in town this past weekend so we took advantage of the free babysitting to run out to Rabbit Valley for one last day of desert riding. 35-40F out on the Western Rim, but beautiful

More from the new stuff we're building in Kingman. The White Cliffs area provides quite an awesome canvas to get creative with. The terrain is dreamy. The lsat completed loop, Skyline is a black diamond tech loop that skirts the cliffs forming the mesa top and climbs up and over other worldly rock formations. If you like tech riding and steep rock rolls, up and down you're going to really enjoy this place. We are designing a ton of b line options and extra credit tech moves.

Looks great! I was talking to the phlebotomist while giving blood yesterday. She said that of the places in her region, Kingman is the worst place to run a blood drive as everyone is angry. Hopefully this will cheer them up!

Haha! Thanks man. Kingman is a little rough around the edges but I see that as one of it's qualities. I think it's a great sort of under the radar spot to go get a ride in, a kind of anti Sedona/Moab place without any hype. The historic downtown is really very cool but it's also very quiet. These trails will connect to it and you can park right on mainstreet and go for a ride at the White Cliffs.

[wkd-rdr]

Fat fun.

I hate winter, wait no I don't
