Be fun, have safe!
Heres some beta pics. Three of the cooler lines I've had the privilege of seeing in person

FKNA! Fun film of what looks like a real memorable trip. And that pillow popping photo is $$$!
Made a little video to try and articulate self-talk psychology and TGR posted it on their blog. Cant figure out the bb code to embed from TGR or FB, so here's links to TGR's post and to FB with my...
So, which of you asshats donated $4.4M?
I like packrafts. One thing that makes them unique in the boating world is how friggin user friendly they are. If you flip in whitewater, you just flop back in your boat. It's not graceful, but you...
Thanks! Yeah, thats a long pedal! It's nice to live just a couple hours from Moab. In fact, after some pestering, High Fives Foundation is going to host an adaptive desert mtb trip next spring. I'd...
Even with getting paralyzed a couple years ago, I hadn't missed November skiing until this year.
Early Nov a few years ago:

Haha, i feel like Dunfee did that sticky then quit TGR and nobody bothered to change it
Is it just my browser or are Vimeo embeds all broken now?
Here's a link to this vid:

Apparently you dont need to do the url BB code any more. Just paste the vimeo url and...
Haha, thanks Tye, Elf and TBS. I was feeling pretty good about that. I'm flattered my recovery is still of interest :)
For years I was on this site a lot, like nearly every day. Just today I...
I miss you Liz. And fuck you, photobucket.
Dammit Photobucket. I bet theres a ton of TRs on here with broken links now.
You can still find this trip report here

It's official: I can bike better than I can walk
Yesterday we pedaled Moab's Magnificent 7: Getaway, Bull Run, Arth's Corner, Little Canyon, Blue Dot, Gold...
You watch a lot of good art films with Brando voiceover and nuanced story? 'Cause it sounds like you're pulling words out of your butt to justify not liking the movie. You're entitled to your opinion...
But it wasnt a documentary nor an environmental film:rolleyes::confused:... Or at least no more enviro or doc than anything from the Mad Max franchise.

What about that trailer...
R&R asks more from the audience than most ski films and that's one of the qualities pushing it out of the "ski porn" genre and into the "art" realm. Anson Fogel wrote this on Ben Sturge's facebook a...
Here's the two things I go back to again and again when I'm feeling directionless or without control:

In April of 1958, a 22 year-old Hunter S. Thompson wrote a letter on the...
Won't be long before the trails are done for the season. I've always been overstoked for winter to arrive, but now that I can pedal better than I can walk (and way better than I can ski), I'm not so...
It's weird when you imagine that you see something of yourself in someone you've never met and then something like this happens.

Earlier this summer High Fives Foundation invited me on an adaptive surf trip. I'd never been on a surfboard before and learning a new thing with a talented group of paralyzed athletes...
Agreed. NPS stats indicate that overnight backcountry usage has been in steady decline for +10 years while dayhike and front country use has climbed. Lots of crowds taking selfies at the popular...
Spent Sat and Sun riding some of Crested Butte's most-loved trails with a friend who was visiting for the first time. Our CB highlight reel included Strand, Dyke, Doctors, Lower Loop, and 401

Looks like Mojave got a tune up:

In Nov 2014, I broke 7 vertebra while flying a snow kite in a grassy field just as I was about to begin a month-long ski trip in Patagonia. The past year and a half has been an endurance effort to...
Haha, thanks! I'd never stopped at that rock overlook since there's typically a dozen bikers taking turn getting that exact shot. Holding your bike on that Upper Porcupine overlook is kind of a...
We rode Whole Enchilada yesterday. When I was in the hospital a friend mailed me a rock from Porcupine Ridge and it's been a daily reminder of one of mountain biking's testpieces. There were a lot of...
Yep, I've done the Pinecone to Deadtree/ Empire a handful of times. It's the Armcone, down Puke, down Thaynes, down Sprio loop that just seems like not the funnest possible way to descend, but that's...
The top of Puke Hill/ Pinecone is 10,000ft and Shadow Lake sits at 9,000. It's 1000ft to ride the road grade from Pinecone down to Shadow Lake and that's what I've seen groups of out-of-towners...
Dropout > crazy 8s every time. I'm not sure why anyone would ride down Fink again. On that same theme of "yeah you can ride that way, I'm just not sure why you'd want to" are the tourists who ride up...
Thanks. Yeah, they're getting harder to find for sure. It's for the gf's bike since her finicky Fox Talas needs factory servicing and paying Fox or Push $200 for a rebuild on an older fork seems like...
Looking at the map, looks like we actually rode Ricochet all the way down. Lower Ricochet was signed as being downhill only directional trail, but I dont think it's bike-only. Think that lower...
Wanted to buy:
140mm travel fork
1 1/8" straight steer tube
26" wheel size
15mm thru axle
Have a 26" fork gathering dust? I'm interested in buying it.
I spoke with some of the guys who were part of the decision to limit busses to 6 bikes. They said the decision stemmed from complaints from drivers about busses packed with +20 bikes. The town...

Grant is like a one-man cheer squad! The guy is pretty freaking pumped on life in general and on pedaling bikes together in particular.
This weekend I was riding in Moab with Grant...

If you can get dropped off by the Wasatch Blvd 7-11 at the mouth of Big Cottonwood Canyon, hitching up is pretty reliable. Otherwise, Uber just launched a ski resort service in SLC
I'll be around Alta that weekend, probably trying to make wiggle turns on groomers. I'd love to catch a beer with y'all!
Jesus, that's gorgeous
I've got a driveway, shower, and floor space near Aspen. Drop a note if you could use any.
So, what's the .00009% possibility we know each other? Yeah, Alta is a good scene and there's a lot of good people running it. I'll be back in the end of Feb for a UAJ/Snowbird speaker series event....
Yeah, I have a Sunlight pass, which will be just my speed for a while.
I spent seven summers doing outdoor ed work based out of Marble, so I know that area well, though not when it's got it's...
excellent. thanks MTM and Rontele. I poked around a bit at McLure. Need some more quad strength handle the snowmobile tracks once the snow sets up.
Check out what the models are saying for the...
hell. yeah.

Also, looks like it'll be a white Christmas across the West. Good week for fresh beacon batteries.

I moved to Carbondale this fall and have gotten back on skis a couple times since my spine injury a year ago. Tues morning up at Sunlight was amazing. Fell like +20 times on the first lap, then a few...
Here's a good article about the atmospheric river that's about to flow this way:

buckle up, utards. Looks like it's gonna be an interlodge-y week. +12" of water forecasted for NorCal and maybe 4.5" in the Wasatch. UAC is guessing +3feet of dense stuff between now and Christmas....

Ride #5: We started out trying to ride Dinoflow, but the rocky little uphills were too much for my cripple legs. Nick generously traded bikes since being on a single speed was just...
