Mountain Biking in the DC Region would not be what it is today without the efforts of MORE’s current President: Ernie Rodriguez.

Several people joined me as I gave a presentation on Mountain Biking in and around the DC Region at REI’s DC Wunder Garten at the NoMa.

A few more days mountain biking in Peru

A quick guide to the essential bike tools you need to get your home bike workshop started

Remembering Scott Scudamore...

The advent of digital photography, and the advancement of sensor technology, is making it easier for just about everyone to get high quality imagery with very affordable gear, here are some tips to make your biking and shooting more enjoyable.

Just becasue it's cold and dark doesn't mean you can't ride...

Cold weather doesn't mean you have to stop riding, it just means you have to dress a little smarter to combat the elements so that your riding experience is just as enjoyable as it is durning the warm months.

The Little Bellas Camp is more than just about riding, their focus is not to churn out little racers; instead, the program is aimed at showing girls 7-14 the importance of living a healthy lifestyle, goal-setting, and building teamwork. All of it using mountain biking as the "fun" vehicle to build strong bonds with each other. Their hope is to ensure that the girls remain with the sport beyond their teenage years.

D.C. Area cyclists are lucky to have a new and challenging venue where to test and hone their downhill mountain biking skills. Bryce Resort in Basye, VA (just over 100 miles from Northern Virginia) recently opened and is continuing to expand a network of lift-assisted mountain bike trails that offer runs for both beginner and expert riders.

As I explain in the acknowledgement section of the book I could not have completed it without the help of many people. Throughout the book I have placed a “you may run into” sidebar highlighting an individual who has not only made a contribution to my cycling experience, but who has also impacted the community around them in one way or another through their involvement in the sport.

It’s hard to believe that we’re coming up on the 20th anniversary of my first book, Mountain Biking the Washington, D.C./Baltimore Area.

I'm gearing up for 2013 and hoping that the new book hits the shelves in the spring so that it is ready for you when you are ready to hit the trails. I've been quiet the past few weeks since submitting the manuscript, but that does not mean I have not been busy.
