We returned to the Timberline Bike Park this weekend with a new mission: to ride each trail from top to bottom in order from Green to Black. Along the way we were curious to see how our initial impressions would change and to get a better sense of current park layout as a whole. Riding […]
Riding the new Redline Trail at the Mt. Bachelor Bike Park
The all-new Redline jump trail at the Mt. Bachelor Bike Park is rad. It’s far better than we expected it would be, especially knowing how loose, rocky and sandy the soil at Bachelor can be. A black diamond, advanced-level jump trail, the Redline trail is reminiscent of the World Class Black Diamond Whistler Trails A-Line […]
First Rides at the new Timberline Bike Park (Video)
After years of waiting, the Timberline Bike Park has finally opened. Officially open for an initial preview season, as mountain bikers get to enjoy a new system of lift accessed single track, trail crews continue their work on Phase 2. It’s been a long time coming; mountain bikers have been waiting years to ride a […]
Why doesn’t Astoria, Oregon have mountain bike trails?
Astoria, Oregon lies at the northwest corner of Oregon, tucked in along the Columbia River to the north and Youngs Bay to the South. A port town, it features a storied history, being the oldest city in the state of Oregon and the site of the first American settlement west of the Rockies. Though the […]

Bellingham, Washington: Whatcom Falls Pump Track
After a day of riding the Galbraith trails in Bellingham, we headed to the pumptrack at Whatcom Falls Park to check it out. Although the surface could have used some watering and was dry and a bit dusty, the Bellingham pumptrack is still a fun time. Built in the spring of 2017, the pump track is […]
Klootchy Creek Trail Build Update II: Finally, Trails in Seaside, Oregon
If you didn’t know where you were at, the freshly cut trail we’re on could be located anywhere in Oregon. However, unlike the tame, often boring/stale/humdrum heritage trails that wind through many of the forests in the state, a smile hasn’t left our faces since dropping into the single track off the gravel access road. […]
The Johnny Royale Trail at Sandy Ridge is Officially Open (w/Video)
The Johnny Royal Trail at Sandy Ridge is finally open, and we’re obsessed with it — OBSESSED I say! Seriously, I can’t stop thinking about it — this trail is legal crack for jump junkies like myself. I am already shopping for a new bike, just for sessioning this trail. (and trails like it) […]
Riding the New Moab Single Track: Captain Ahab and the Moab Brands Trails (Video)
It’s been over 8 years since our last riding trip to Moab, Utah. Long seen as one of mountain biking’s epic destinations, locations like Whistler and Sedona have been taking precedence the last few years, with more and better singletrack options. Though Moab is known for its beautiful settings and challenging terrain, there really […]
The secret singletrack: Gorge Trail #400
Each time I drive the stretch of Interstate 84 between Portland and Hood River, I wonder why there isn’t a single track trail connecting the two cities. A paved multi-use path is currently in construction, visible from the freeway. But why isn’t there a natural surface trail? Here’s the thing: there is one, and its […]
Salt Lake City, Utah: 9 Line Bike Park
Utilizing space beneath freeways for a bike park is a brilliant use of unused public lands. Being covered not only keeps it in the shade, but keeps the elements out allowing use in the wet season. Salt Lake City activated a blighted public space underneath the I-15 overpass 2014, working with the community to construct […]
VanLife Part 5: Camper Van Kitchen Sink On a Budget
When it comes to my DIY van conversion, the process has been anything but glamorous. Buying a house and a van in the span of a year has left us financially limited in terms of the buildout. That’s ok though, my priority has been to go straight to having fun on adventures. Everything done to […]
