I believe the complications we see in our sport today, are a direct result of the "roadie" community. They are techno-cycling-geeks, who don't ride, to just ride, and have fun. They TRAIN. Part of the complications also come from a natural progression of the sport. When we went from klunkers, to hardtails, to Full suspension sleds, it's no wonder things have gotten complicated. In a very short time frame too. Life is complicated, and so is mountain biking. It's all what you make of it really. You have the choice to sit and obsess about little details, or you can just lube the chain and ride it like you stole it. That's why I like my Transition, just air up the tires, and off I go.

Mike Montgomery wins it for sure!

He IS a tool, the least he could do is learn how to use some tools.

How RAD is this? The guru himself, with all his knowledge, and years in the biz...coming to PB! I'm truly excited. Hoping to see a weekly story/segment kinda like "Ask RC".

I had one for two years, and loved it! Never had any problems with rust, hardware loosening, or straps breaking. I removed it from my vehicle after every use and hung it in the garage though, in order to prolong the life of it, and keep it tip top. I ended up selling it and now miss it quite a bit. I'd give it five out of five gold stars, and definitely recommend it to any other riders looking for a good rack system!

I'm thankful for all life's lessons that can be learned by the simple action of pedaling through the woods and urban jungles. Most of all thankful that I can come home to my family, whom love and support me. (No matter how much I spend on my hobby)

Gully had this during his finals run didn't he? I think it was one of the most stylish airs of the weekend....mad steeze!

Looks like a great documentary. I was hooked on just the preview! To see local trails featured and tell the story from all sides is RAD.

yeah man, bought a house so now I'm super busy with that. Been a slow riding season for me.

see that super thin chainstay yoke just behind the bottom bracket? That is the acting pivot for this suspension setup.

I know that feeling. Was going to sell the 4X bike, but realized how big of a hit I'd take $$$-wise so I'm just going to put a smaller fork on it and keep it around...
