Off to the side of the house, … Read More »

This is huge for little Boo…we gave the editor of Velo, Chris Case, a sick Boo RS-X Disc to train on for a week in Boulder. No obligations, no strings…just hope that he would dig it. Apparently he did, as did Brad Kaminski. They shot her in Denver, described her talents, wrote eloquently of her beauty…if she was my girlfriend … Read More »

Just racing Burke’s new Crusher in the Tushar takes some serious cajones, or at least a momentary lapse in one’s sanity. But to race for 80 miles, up over 10,000ft of vert, with just a single gear? I was getting ready to call up Nurse Ratchet when Brad told me this plan. Maybe some old-school therapy would help dissuade … Read More »
