When I started reading the feed this morning and read that Graves was out with a broken shifter and Hill had won stage 2 by 25 seconds, I laughed it off as an April Fools joke. Obviously it wasn’t.

sweet bike! one wish with the bike is a shorter seat tube length. 19.3 is way too long IMO. 18 would be perfect.

Excellent talk, gentlemen. As a racer from the old school I was, foolishly and ignorantly, somewhat skeptical of CK a few years ago when enduro racing was gaining popularity in the US. The man has fully earned my respect. Its great to hear first hand how he wound up where he is. He is a product of skill, a lot of hard work, and the love of riding and racing bikes. Now bring on the ‘18 race season! Very cool stories about blowing $10-20k/season then paying it off over the fall and winter. For years I and many of my...

With each passing year, more and more riders are looking to extend their riding season as long as possible. This usually means that trails are more muddy, loose and wet – leaving a lot of compromises to be made when it comes to picking the right tire for the conditions. Maxxis stepped up to the plate to provide trail riders with a tire that bridges the gap between a mud spike and a tire meant for dry conditions. The Forekaster is a tire that allows riders to ride with confidence when trail conditions start to deteriorate. We tested a new...

The interview is LONG, but great. Luckily I was driving from Durango to Evergreen and it made the time pass fast. Loved the reason for moving to Eagle and was blown away to hear about the head injury. Heal fast, and keep building rad trails for all of us to enjoy. No 20, 30, 40 foot jumps for me though.

Fantastic interview. Yes, SS is right, we are interested in hearing what MT has to say. Much respect to Mr Thompson as an athlete, professional, family man, and friend. Great commentary on the 90's and early 00's. Wanna ride the chairlift and some tough DH terrain? You gotta race, and guess what, you get 3 days of practice and a lift ticket for $50! There was no lift service except at the races. Shuttle trails were scarce, scorned upon, and quietly guarded. Downhillers in CO did what they had to do to get their practice and testing, and the bikes...

So good to hear you guys choppin’ it up. You guys made helped make the mountain states cup and sol vista some of my best cycling memories! I really enjoyed this interview. Takes me back the basement of operations at sol vista, hearing the banter and toilets flush in the pipes over head. Thanks guys!

So, you guys don't make it too hard to figure out the trails you are talking about there with the rogue shuttle trails. How do you guys feel about the current thought process of trying to legitimize those trails?

The various offerings you give us of folks in the industry is so great. While today’s cast was a long one I believe it brought out more laughs than any other. Thanks for sharing!

I started digging there in 2003. Neko and Sean have been the utmost respectful to the trail crews that started and carried the trails up until they turned it into a bike park with a real vision beyond local building trails for themselves. I walked out of the woods at dark last night with these guys. They are really working hard and long hours to make Windrock something way more than it has been.
