Did some backcountry mountain biking on some snowmobile trails. It was a long ride, and we thought that we were lost for most of the ride. Turns out we weren't, but that didn't mean that we could avoid two stream crossings, numerous mud traverses, and several logs that had fallen across the...

I'm in the Rochester, NY area for work, and I thought I'd take my bike with me. The burly stuff is down at Tryon Park, but this place has a bunch of new trails, fast and flowy, with mellow climbs and nice scenery. It's a good place for kids, beginners, or people who just don't want to beat...

Rode the Black Fly challenge last Saturday. Conditions were Brutal. Even the fastest times were abut 25 minutes longer than the usual times. With tired legs, mental exhaustion, and a sandy crotch, I finished the 40 miles in 3:19:57. Some pics: Full Report Here

A little overdue, but I thought I'd post this video that my buddy made of us at the Kingdom Trails over the Memorial Day weekend. LVSnCyKp_UU

Long Ride today up at the SMBA trails near Skidmore College. We wanted to do "Dam" the long trail that goes out extremely far from the trailhead with no support or civilization in sight. We made it, but it was a struggle. We started off on the carriage trail, and then we rocked "Swam Pass"...

I'm thinking of buying a hardtail Niner bike, but I don't really know if I want to get the EMD (aluminum) or the SIR 9/MCR 9 (steel). I'm going to be spending a pretty good amount of money, so I want it to last for a long, long time. I'm leaning toward the SIR (I also like the single speed...

I'm in the market for a mountain bike for this year, and I'm looking at 29ers. I don't have the money for FS and I like the way the 29ers roll. I tried the Gary Fisher Mamba today, and I was a big fan. Deore front D, SX4 rear, and Dart 3 fork w/80mm travel. I felt good on the bike, and I can...

(Cross posted at my blog: Ski=MC2) Right now, Gore is skiing to full potential. Whenever people ask me about the mountain, I tell them to visit during March (because the glades will most likely be open, the crowds will be manageable, and the steeps will be nicely bumped). Well, March has...

I'm looking to buy a tele binding to be used mostly in the Backcountry, but occasionally (5-10 times a year) at the resort. I'm looking at the G3 Targa Ascents, Black Diamond 01, 22 Designs Axl, and the Voile Switchback. Does anyone have any experience (good or bad) with any of these? I'm...

It only took me 4 years!!!!!

I don't know how many people are into the whole "park" scene, but all that needs to be said about this trailer is that some dude grinds a lift cable. http://poorboyz.com/media?video_id=19270

I love the portion of the summer where HPD comes out with threads with skiing questions I'd never thought of (or new ways at looking at things, different ways to share experiences, etc.). It always seems to start happening around August (so he's a little early this year), and he sometimes even...

Rolled into North Conway on Saturday, May 2nd. Ate some dinner and had some beers at the Moat Mountain Smokehouse and Brewery. I had the Pork, my wife (Candace) had the Brisket. Very tasty (beers were good too, especially the stout). Left the Holiday Inn Express (free room using points) at...
