Banked turns are more fun
It’s never been more important to support IMBA, especially if you live in California. With the recent enforcement/ bike ban of the popular UCSC trails in Santa Cruz, as well as the impending CA State Parks Wilderness Bill, there is a serious threat for mountain bikers and trails statewide, and we need everyone to register […]
We’ve been living on the on the road for a while now. Here’s summary of where we have been, and here is an account of the missions the Subaru/ IMBA Trail Care Crews have accomplished to date:
There is nothing better than swinging a leg over a new bike and feeling right at home. That is exactly the feeling I had astride the new Session 88. The Session has been on my radar since Trek Brand Manager Michael Browne showed us the new Session models at Sea Otter last year. Trek knew […]
It seems like our time in Boulder was months ago. It is hard to believe we have only been on the road a few weeks. And while we have been a few great trail rides in here and there, I am really missing some of the great dirt jumping sessions we had courtesy of our […]
It’s official, we’re on the road! We’ve been traveling since the beginning of the year with the senior crew, Kelly and Collins Bishop, and have hardened up into seasoned professional travelers. We’ve been learning the ways of the road, and adopted the lifestyle that comes with a life on the road. Every week we are […]
One of our favorite spots to ride in the city of Boulder was amazingly enough, at a bike shop. A lot of shops have test ride areas where one can “try before you buy”. However, this is one shop that took that concept and blew it up! It isn’t often you see a shop that […]

We’ll be giving spot updates, ride reports and gear reviews as we travel the road. Check out our first submission: Riding Boulder, Colorado’s Bike Parks. click here to check it […]
During IMBA’s staff week, we had the chance to sit down with Pete Webber, IMBA Trail Specialist , and learn more about the Valmont Bike Park. He pulled out the original blue prints and shared the scoop on this incredible project. For those uninformed of the scope of the project, the Valmont Bike Park is […]
We’ve now been in Boulder for over two weeks and are about to finally head on the road. Our first week began with a meet and greet with the office staff here at IMBA, the International Mountain Bicycling Association. We learned quite a bit, and are a bit overwhelmed even with the sheer amount of […]
We get our new Fisher Roscoe trail bikes, and see what they are made of.
Boulder, Colorado has a lot of great riding for the dirt jumper/ freeride/ downhiller demographic. Between the jumps at the Fix, 63rd, the Boulder skatepark, and the Gunbarrel Jumps at Eaton Park, there is a lot of fun to be had. When you add all the awesome places to ride within an hour’s drive, the […]
Time is running out. We ask that all of our friends that ride bikes take a moment to add a comment on IMBA.com. All comments will help the cause- even if you just click the sample form. The worst case scenario is that Mountain Bikers stay apathetic on this issue- and harm our chances at further access […]
