I love these videos showing Danny Macaskill’s trials skill. Some of the jumps he makes on basically a modified mountain bike and the balance he displays is incredible. I could imagine the damage he could do to himself if he muffed the trick and fell.
I don’t get much of a chance for riding my 29er in the snow. Not at all last year. I live in Middle Tennessee, so when this cold snap came through and dumped a few inches of snow on the ground the last few days I figured I ‘d see what I could do in the snow. No it’s not hilly where I live. Flat as Kansas around my area. But it was fun to simply bundle up and ride around the yards in the snow with the 29er making groovy tracks in the snow everywhere. When I got done it looked cool, all the tracks made by the big wheels. As I was riding I was thinking how much I’d enjoy actually riding a snow covered trail. It was bitterly cold but I really didn’t feel it. I was simply riding like some little kid in the snow making cool tracks.

All the rage is single speed mountain bikes. Seems folks are digging the simplistic value of a bike that has no gears. I haven’t exactly got with program of building or buying myself a single speed bike. I kind of like shifting through the gears when I need to. I thought about converting [...]
