Long time no update, which means nothing truly unique has happened in awhile. To celebrate our American Independence Day, we headed up to Canada. The plan was to drop in and see my ol pal Johnny Smoke of BushPilotBiking on the way to Silverstar bike park. Drop in we did- as soon as we got there, we headed up for a quick lap in Johnny's backyard trails, and off the bat Lyndsey hit what is probably

My wife and I went to ride something different this past weekend. It was supposed to be a long out and back singletrack ride, but as we approached the 3/4 way up point, the trail vanished into a new clearcut. I know you're thinking "boo hoo, it happens". That's true. But the trail in question is the nearly 900 mile long Pacific Northwest Trail, designated to become a National Scenic Trail this

No update in quite some time, so here goes:Nearly 4 weeks ago, I went to visit some friends in Canadia. We rode all day, and at the end of the day, I felt the need to hit this big contraption here:Well, I didn't make it all the way up there. Luckily, I fell inbetween all those trees there and landed straightlegged and flat footed on a couple of big logs. And then of course the bike fell and

Jesse "the Dude" Hooks sent me this old school photo that I took about ummm...5 years ago. Man, has it really been that long? Doesn't seem like it. Anywho, it's the best trailside repair I've ever seen, AND he rode it out of the woods on a gravel road nearly 10 miles back to camp!There's no telling what other awesome photos were lost during the great computer crash of 2005.

We at Spectrum Techwear are happy to announce our new line of riding capes for 2008. The Flight Control, above, is specced with waterproof/breathable SpecTex FDR5000d-ish and offers fully independent thermo cloaking abilities. The dual bilateral extrusion baffles keep crud away from your chamois, while the plastisol impregnated exoskeleton keeps the cape rigid enough to gain 16 nanoseconds

Of course I was stoked when Tyler Maine from Pinkbike called on his way down to Oregon with plans to stop and ride for a bit. Unfortunately, the bottom fell out of the sky and dumped A LOT of wet, heavy snow unexpectedly. At first I thought it was all over for the day, then I came to my senses when I heard Geoff Gulevich was in on the tour too. I've always wanted to meet this guy, and I

I remember it like it was yesterday. The first real mountain ride I did was on Yancee's Ridge in Wilson's Creek with my buddies Shannon StClair and Mike Swanson, aboard our overly-quick handling jackhammer hardtails with 3" forks. We shuttled, except for this crazy guy Terry Sane that suggested he could beat us to the top pedalling. Shannon broke his finger on a gnarly section of trail that 10

I received some awful news yesterday. While riding some steep-gnar yesterday afternoon with the Transition Crew, Mike Metzger (Transition/Spectrum) hit a big tree and basically de-shouldered himself, putting an early end to the 2008 riding season.

March 2, 2008I moved here to ride, and setup Spectrum Techwear here because the action is, well, here. With the soaring prices of gas, my motivation level has increasingly declined (if that's actually possible) for driving somewhere to ride. Eventually, it had to happen.

Leap Day, 2008Having friends in the bike industry is great. No matter what your problems are, you're never afraid to bring work home with you and go for a spontaneous ride. I wasn't so stoked since it was raining, but Taylor showed up ready to ride, so into the Chuckanut Mtns we go!Do you know a good mechanic? How good is he?

Yes, the website is a bit bland these days, but the good news is that we finally booted our old server in exchange for a new one, so maybe, just maybe the new site will start working as planned.
