The Trail to True Grit

A ride report by Bullet. A few months back I had the wild notion that I should do a 50-mile mountain bike race. Now that may not be such a wild notion for many. Let me put it into perspective for you. A few years ago I found that I had been swallowed up by “life” […]

A Ride up to Mineral Basin—American Fork Canyon

A ride report by the Professor. I went for a ride today up American Fork Canyon, looking for snow. I missed the last group ride in the snow because I was out of town on business. I also enjoy riding solo—lots of time to think. I drove up to Tibble Fork Reservoir and started my […]

First Fat Snow Ride: Coyote Canyon Loop

Today was our first Fat Bike Brigade group ride and we had a total of seven riders ranging in age from 14 to 54. I would call that a success. And we woke up to our first significant snowfall of the season.  Though it was snowing this morning it was not really sticking to anything […]

Bikepacking Iceland . . . on fatbikes

A repost by the Professor. I came across this post on the mtbr.com fatbike forums. This is the kind of trip we all dream about. http://forums.mtbr.com/fat-bikes/iceland-trip-report-730035.html

Bennie Creek Cut-off Trail– Payson Canyon

San Rafael Swell: Good Water Canyon Rim Ride

A ride report by the Professor. I’m cautious about how I use the word “epic.” The Little Grand Canyon of the San Rafael Swell is truly epic scenery. Friday afternoon my 16 year old son, Finn and I, drove the 125 miles down to the Wedge Overlook in the San Rafael Swell Recreation Area. I […]

Autumn Ride up Hobble Creek Left Fork

I’ve run up Hobble Creek left fork, and I’ve skied up it in winter, but I had never ridden up on a bike. It has warmed up here in Utah Valley the past week, and the daytime temperatures have been in the 60’s. The leaves are still turning and it is a beautiful time to […]

First Long Fat Ride

A ride report by the Prof. Mt. Timpanogos in the background A couple weeks ago I went on my first long ride on my Puglsey. I was in an exploratory mood. I often will take off (either trail running, hiking, or on a mountain bike), and follow a trail or what hints at a trail […]
