Not shot on RED, sorry.

Trails bikes and White Ranch near Golden, Colorado are a splendid combination. Enjoy some summertime shredding with Matt Thompson and Steve Wentz of Momentum Trail Concepts.

As the sole competitor racing for Trek World Racing at the World Cup finals here in Hafjell, Norway, Neko Mulally showed great pace in both qualifying and the final race to demonstrate he's fully recovered from the injuries suffered earlier in the season. Unfortunately a hand injury sustained in practice forced Aaron Gwin out of the event. It was the same hand and injury location as that suffered in Val d'Isere at Round 6, but this time the bone was heavily bruised. Team mate Justin Leov was unable to attend the finals due to the unexpected loss of his best friend James Dodds, a pioneer in New Zealand mountain biking who was being remembered by many of the Kiwi riders here this weekend.

Mini-MacAskill is at it again and he's killing it.

Between the chit chat behind-the-scenes story and development of the P.Slope, there are a bunch of tasty clips of the Specialized riders putting it through the paces. To learn about some of the more technical details, check out Vital MTB's P.Slope First Look, or visit www.specialized.com.

Pogo stick riding is on another level these days thanks to Gilles Coustellier.

Translation: 'Seize the Summer' This summer I broke away from my norm so I could gain a new perspective on life... and ride a lot of trials. A huge thanks to all my friends and family for housing, feeding, supporting, and putting up with me. Thanks to team Dorse for the inspiration (seriously). Thanks Ian, Stew, Matt, Chris, Ross and anyone else who helped film. And last but not least, a massive thanks to Northwest Trials for helping me out!

We start with a peek inside Ibis along with a quick run through a bunch of the bikes we've built in the last 31 years. After that, we quickly get out of the shop and onto the trail. Follow Brian Lopes, Anne Caro Chausson and Andrew Whiteford as the have their way with Noble Canyon, near San Diego California. No massive hucking (or any hucking for that matter), but a whole lot of excellent quality singletrack.

(Update as of Wednesday Sept 19th: The Colorado State Patrol is involved and we've found others who have had similar run-ins with this driver. Stay tuned for more updates) Here is what was supposed to be my relaxing Sunday morning ride with my teammate until things became a bit unsettling when an older male driver came up behind us in his Ford Explorer (license plate Colorado 893 EKG). This guy obviously doesn't like seeing bikes for some reason since he sat behind us for more than five minutes blaring his horn. What's even worse is we saw him approaching from behind and to be polite we ride single file to give him as much road as possible, as we did with every other car we encountered on this road east of Longmont, CO. This guy was so intent of bugging us that he backed up traffic behind him and cars had to pass him on a double yellow line. It seems he was the one obstructing traffic, not us. We ended up slowing up in order to force him to pass us and go on with his day. Insane. Hopefully this is the worste thing this guy does to cyclists. As a Founder of TrainingPeaks.com I encourage everyone to get out and ride bikes as part of a healthy lifestyle. Everyone no matter what their age or where they may live should have the right to feel safe when riding whether it be for health, fitness or simply commuting to work.

Roadtrips to a foreign country - although fun - are always a step into the unknown. From not knowing the local language to not knowing where the good spots are, they're a gamble in terms of producing a usable video. Modern cameras at least offer some comfort in the form of being able to record crisp, high definition clips with a huge amount of control over the image itself. As soon as the rider's pulled the line you can check over your footage and make sure everything's worked out OK. However, what happens when you take away that safety net? When the trusty 550D gets replaced by a camera 40 years it's senior, shooting on inconsistent film that costs £0.20-per-second and takes 3 weeks to process, there's no choice but to get creative with the standard filming procedure. This video isn't a standard blow-by-blow trip video, rather an insight into what happens when you head off into the unknown for a few days. It may not feature the latest footjam whip variation, but it does feature having fun on a bike in its purest form. Camera: GAF 64 R Film: Kodak Ektachrome 100D Editor and Autistic Director: Ali C

A lot of things lay on the final World Cup of the season for Team GT Factory Racing. Would Rach finish first overall? Would Gee get second or third? How was it going to be racing on a new World Cup track? We wanted to capture it all.

Andrew Dickey is absolutely slaying it, finding amazing new ride spots, and doing some downright dangerous things in this video.

In honor of Steve Smith getting to the top step of the world cup, here's his section from Seasons so you can look back on where he came from. He's been a fast kid for a long time but now he's a winning man. Congrats.

Gilles Coustellier racks up another victory, becoming the undisputed world champion pogo stick jockey yet again.

The sequel to Back to 2001 and TRA's third video on Inspired.
