Here's a map from the Oregon Enduro site. I've ridden Tiddlywinks, it's great, make sure and do that one. Also talk to Cog Wild, local shuttle crew, have them shuttle you, they'll get you pointed to the good stuff. http://oregonenduro.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/Bend-Enduro-Race-Cou…

Nicholast Liked a comment about News Story Dave Weagle Ends Patent Lawsuit Versus Giant Bicycles

7/2/2014 10:48am

I'm going to play Devil's Advocate for a second here since there's a lot of assumptions and blind hate toward Giant. There are other possibilities for the lawsuit being dismissed than Giant being an evil Goliath. Maybe DW's claims of patient violations would not have held up in patient court as DW originally thought so he dropped the claims. Maybe the cost of litigation and the time fighting was not worth even the best possible outcome; this would likely have been true against even a small company and is not specific to a large company like Giant. Or maybe a...

Yeah, true this would be rad. I bet the issue for lots of people is the advocacy route takes time. I've done limited legit bike club kinda trail work, yet I grew up building my own BMX trails. Now that I'm older I see the payoff of the advocacy long play. The whole legit trial building process isn't sexy until...

My favorite kind of fixie is the kind with a freewheel, knobby tires, lots of gears, and front and rear suspension.

5/19/2014 9:02am

I'm with these guys 100%. Been running tubeless for four years and haven't flatted once. That's unheard of for me, prior I was flatting a few times a year. I've burped the front a couple of times, once was a fast wreck hitting a good sized rock. I'm 190 pounds, maybe I pick good lines, maybe not (I just rode...

Not every bike has a bottle mount. Personally I hate riding with a pack.

This message translated from Svenfricanese. Can you sleep at night now? Obviously it was one of our small crew of guys busting their butts to bring you closer to the action, regardless of whether you're 5 miles away or 5,000. This isn't the New York Times or Fox News, nor do we want it to be. Pink Wolf is on point. Also, it's their, not there, and riders certainly aren't "whinging" about things, bro.

there is plenty of proper journalism on vital. But what i also like about it is their connection with the riders and media and industry and the quick from the horses mouth info as it comes. There is plenty of time and place for a proper indepth expose... but this is just info in from the other side of the world. If you dont like it dont read it. Wait for Bike or Dirt to come out in 2 months time.

JMHV Liked a comment about video When Roadies Do MTB... Meet the Pinarello Dogma XM

All comments below are completely spot-on, but to be fair, Pinarello is Italian, and they are a road bike company that clearly knows almost nothing about MTB. There is a cultural disconnect - This kind of hyperbole is fairly common in their cycling market/industry. They're just trying to sound exciting and radical but of course to us this just sounds like a load of shit. Which it is. But still, they probably don't mean to sound as crass as they do. What I think is so totally awesome is that they got a native English speaking "Guy With That Voice"...
