13 Speed SRAM for gravel.

Big news from SRAM today, and for the best take on it, I'm sharing what Open Cycle has to say. The new "uber-group" for gravel: Red XPLR is 13 speeds and

Curious Creatures Vulvarine Shorts were worn this season by Cicely Newman, a Methow Cycling Team athlete. I've been wearing CC ever since they sent me samples last year.

"I’ve been using tailgate pads for the last decade for everything from shuttle laps with friends, to family days on the local trail system, to hauling the local kids to MTB Team practices. It's safe to say I’ve worn a few out in that time and have strong opinions on what works and what doesn’t."

A Saris Tailgate Pad Large, 6 bike is being used by my riding buddy, Jeremy Newman from Intrinsic Design. After using it for a few months, he shared his

With the current heat and smoke, I've been riding more from the lake trailhead rather than from the cabin, at least until the smoke clears and the heat wave ends. Saris has me covered.

The Saris Modular Hitch System (MHS) is on my EV when I head to the trailhead. With the current heat and smoke, I've been riding more from the lake rather

Zeiss and KOO Eyewear have entered into an exclusive collaboration to design the optics for all KOO products. Except for the photochromic lenses, as Zeiss currently only produces ophthalmic photochromic lenses, all other lenses are crafted by Zeiss. Like the Alibi I wear. These lenses are made from the most durable, scratch-resistant materials and incorporate advanced color technology to enhance visibility in any weather condition.

The Ultimate Bib Shorts+ stand out with their proprietary EXPERT N3X 3D-printed seat pad, developed in collaboration with Elastic Interface engineers. This innovative seat pad uses advanced 3D printing technology, allowing for precise layer-by-layer construction that offers superior technical control compared to traditional foam pads. Made from eco-friendly, bio-based hydrophobic material and topped with recycled fabric, this seat pad significantly reduces the bib's environmental impact.

Gorewear Ultimate Bib Shorts+ launched last month. I spent the better part of a day testing them on a long gravel ride. They're the best bibs I've ever

Spent most of the day in GORE WEAR latest bib shorts. Tried them all, and these are the cream of the crop! If comfort is your priority, the steep price is justified. The secret sauce? A 3D-printed pad and breathable, compression fabric.

Encountered a mother moose and her calf for the second time in my life, both times while riding. Unfortunately, I couldn't take a photo because seeing a baby moose can be dangerous. It's important to stay small and non-threatening, as raising a hand with a phone could agitate the mother. Thankfully, we startled her, and she ran off with her baby. With and .

What a sight! Attached are photos from the area above Finlay Canyon where the moose was seen.

As an early adopter, I never expected cargo bikes to be a status symbol at school pickup, or embraced to this extent by families. At a more accessible price, Terns Quick Haul Long should encourage more families to replace their car, SUV, or minivan.

Discovered a challenging yet rewarding shortcut to town through a wildlife reserve, passing three lakes, and following the Twisp River. It’s a significant improvement over the highway!

Bear Creek to Lester Rd and looping back is thrilling with the single track around Pearrygin Lake. Riding dirt on road bikes, such as the @opencycle U.P and U.P(P.E.R), is fun. As the summer draws to a close, cooler temperatures have settled into the valley and skies are clear. #bikehugger #opencycle #pearryginlake #methowtrails.

Stupid stick!

Volume up!

Real Smoke from Trek Project ONE.

Our East Coast editor David Schloss just had knee surgery and is recovering with a bike Cannondale sent him plus a helmet. Here's a short about both.

Guess I'm keeping the fatbike in rotation for another week or so.

The GoreWear Distance Kit was announced this morning. I was in San Diego last week with the GoreWear team for a presentation about the new jersey and updated bib shorts. Then we went for a ride. The silky soft, breathable kit is designed and refined for your longest rides. It's available in men and womens sizing and 4 colors. Visit @gorewear to learn more.

That's right. I got the shot with @intrinsicdesignjn. #bikehugger #fatbikesnow #methowfatbike #methowtrails #methowvalley #bigbucklake

Rode to the homestead, above the lake, and then warmed up at the cabin by the fire. Methow Fatbike.

First fatbike ride of the season.

Another week of perfect hair.

Fitting that the last day of summer ends on fire. Wildfire smoke engulfed me like a fog bank. Here I am on the trail cam heading back to the cabin. Luckily, where I ride, there are plenty of places to turn off the ridge and the flames are in the Pasaytens northwest of me. The white in the background of the video is the cloud lifting up from the valley.

I've been waiting two and 1/2 years for the Hayes Brakes T4 upgrade. It was well worth the wait. Here I am bedding the brakes. There isn't a parking lot nearby, so I did it in the meadow 5x. The trail cam video shows the first. Then, I bombed down to the lake and got them red hot. Thanks Methow Cycle & Sport.
