Social Media should and always will be just a 'option' for athletes to use, not for sponsors to use against them. Bravo AB for allowing your fans to see the 'real you'.

Thank you UCI! It means allot to us racers in the PNW who seriously looked up to him. His legacy is something that will be told for decades. Gotta admit- a tear keeps welling up everytime I think about it. And every ride is just a bit more sentimental.

Craig Cleary of Hood River too, he is just awesome on trail bikes and bike parks. We call him Optimus Prime cause he leads the train down the tracks/trail.

In Hood River there's a young man named Gary Passch. Nobody rides like that kid. Very humble. He can compete with Brian Lopes and not know who BL is.......but we ALL know BL. Visit Dirty Fingers Bike Shop on State Street, ask about Gary, he might be working on your bike.

Only narcissistic riders use Strava, same kooks who post a hundred photos of themselves like little teenage girls. This species of MTB rider needs to be removed, gutted and mounted on the wall. DEATH TO STRAVA!
