What else do you need in life?

These urban races have such crazy tight tolerances!

I know that we thread the needle in the woods on a regular basis but changing the frame of reference to a cityscape really brings out how hairy things get when the speeds pick up.

And 26 more...

I don't want to say "you're doing it wrong" but there certainly is a point when you violate the pants off your lightweight carbon road bike parts' warranties.

Should there be a trials section stage in the Tour to go along with solo and team time trials?

Think about it... the benefits of doping become much lower when you're expected to actually handle a bike and not just sit there and crank out more watts than a power plant.

Sometimes you have to slow down to go fast. Maybe take a moment longer after a crash to collect your thoroughly spilled beans.

Who am I kidding, I've done this exact thing in a race before!

A classic from Reed Merschat back in about 2001, this video caused a lot of hate back in the day because it showed trials bikes riding in skate parks. Gasp! Haters will continue to hate though as a lot of the "hardcore trials community" (read: nerds) will bag on Danny Mac today for not putting all his effort into going a few inches higher on the ups and growing a more flamboyant French unibrow.

This video has a lot of riders in it that are still highly influential over a decade later. Jeff Lenosky, Ryan Leech, Chris Akrigg, Marty Ashton, Lance Trappe, and many more show you the confluence of street and trials riding in this half hour of class.

Alright everyone, lock up your huts and fireproof your villages because the angry viking is back and this time, he's got a bike with a seat so it's about to get real.

This is the first video i do on a street trials bike, i got the bike some months back, but beeing winter there have been little time on bike. This video is filmed over 3 days of riding.

This video acheives "step 1" of what i would like to do , and this was to focus mostly on what i already knew of techniques and use these to make a video on the Inspired.

But next in line is the indoor video of Step 1, as this is the outdoor version.

My coworker and I shot this a couple months ago one morning before the daily grind started. This is my second ride on that bike and I haven't had a chance to ride it since due to various combinations of weather and health.

I'm headed in for surgery in about 12 hours and I can't wait to get back out there and ride and shoot more goofy, stupid trials stuff. My time in Boulder is winding down but whatever comes next will be loads of fun thanks to the Inspired Fourplay. Glad to be back on one of these things.
